  Add a binding for describing the secure CMA reserved memory range. The
memory range also will be defined in the TEE firmware. It means the TEE
will be configured with the same address/size that is being set in this
DT node.

What was the outcome of previous discussion? I don't see any references
to the conclusion and your changelog "Reword the dt-binding description"
is way too generic.

You must explain what happened here.

Describe the hardware or firmware, not the binding. Drop first four
words and rephrase it.

It does not look like you tested the bindings, at least after quick
look. Please run `make dt_binding_check` (see
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/writing-schema.rst for instructions).
Maybe you need to update your dtschema and yamllint.

Do not send untested code.

Still wrong compatible. Look at other bindings - there is nowhere
underscore. Look at other reserved memory bindings especially.

Also, CMA is a Linux thingy, so either not suitable for bindings at all,
or you need Linux specific compatible. I don't quite get why do you even
put CMA there - adding Linux specific stuff will get obvious pushback...

reg is second property. Open DTS and check how it is there.

I don't think there is a final conclusion yet in v1. Jeff helped
explain that this region also is defined in TEE firmware. I put this a
bit in the commit message above.

Sorry for confusing.

Will change to: Secure Region. Is it ok?

Memory region for TEE usage, which is also defined in the TEE firmware.
When an activity (e.g. secure video playback) requiring usage of this
starts, this region will be protected by MPU (Memory Protect Unit) in
the TEE firmware. After the activity is completed, the region will be
unprotected by the TEE and usable by the non-secure side (i.e. kernel
and userspace).

Does this description make sense for you?

Sorry. I will update them and test this before sending.

Thanks. I will change to: secure-region. Is this ok?

Thanks for reviewing so careful. Will fix this and below.

My bot found errors running 'make DT_CHECKER_FLAGS=-m dt_binding_check'
on your patch (DT_CHECKER_FLAGS is new in v5.13):

See https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/devicetree-bindings/patch/20231111111559.8218-7-yong.wu@mediatek.com

The base for the series is generally the latest rc1. A different dependency
should be noted in *this* patch.

If you already ran 'make dt_binding_check' and didn't see the above
error(s), then make sure 'yamllint' is installed and dt-schema is up to
date:

pip3 install dtschema --upgrade

Please check and re-submit after running the above command yourself. Note
that DT_SCHEMA_FILES can be set to your schema file to speed up checking
your schema. However, it must be unset to test all examples with your schema.

No, the previous discussion went off in entirely the wrong direction. To 
reiterate, the point of the binding is not to describe the expected 
usage of the thing nor the general concept of the thing, but to describe 
the actual thing itself. There are any number of different ways software 
may interact with a "secure region", so that is meaningless as a 
compatible. It needs to describe *this* secure memory interface offered 
by *this* TEE, so that software knows that to use it requires making 
those particular SiP calls with that particular UUID etc.

Thanks,
Robin.

May I suggest the following for the device tree binding? (I'm not very
familiar w/ device trees, so apologies for any oversights, but trying
to process the feedback here and help move Mediatek along). This
should align with my other suggestions for having an MTK specific
portion to their secure heap implementation; which also means there
should be an MTK specific device tree binding.
