This patchset contains the anonymous dup implementation with permissions checking for the ALSA's PCM interface in kernel to enable the restricted DMA sound buffer sharing for the restricted tasks.
The code was tested through qemu and it seems to be pretty stable.
The initial tinyalsa implementation can be found here:
https://github.com/perexg/tinyalsa/commits/anondup
v2 of the patches:
- change clone parameter to subdevice number for the pcm attach - change SNDRV_PCM_PERM_MAX to SNDRV_PCM_PERM_MASK - the tinyalsa implementation was a little updated (restructured)
v3 of the patches:
- group integer declarations in snd_pcm_anonymous_dup() - replaced substream->pcm with pcm in snd_pcm_anonymous_dup() - added SNDRV_PCM_PERM_RW check for read/write/readv/writev syscalls
v4 of the patches:
- more simple restriction control (only two modes - full/buffer) - the tinyalsa implementation follows this change

This patch implements new SNDRV_PCM_IOCTL_ANONYMOUS_DUP ioctl which returns the new duplicated anonymous inode file descriptor (anon_inode:snd-pcm) which can be passed to the restricted clients.
This patch is meant to be the alternative for the dma-buf interface. Both implementation have some pros and cons:
anon_inode:dmabuf
- a bit standard export API for the DMA buffers - fencing for the concurrent access [1] - driver/kernel interface for the DMA buffer [1] - multiple attach/detach scheme [1]
[1] the real usage for the sound PCM is unknown at the moment for this feature
anon_inode:snd-pcm
- simple (no problem with ref-counting, non-standard mmap implementation etc.) - allow to use more sound interfaces for the file descriptor like status ioctls - more fine grained security policies (another anon_inode name unshared with other drivers)

Android requires to allow the passing an anonymous inode file descriptor with the restricted functionality - only the mmap operation for the DMA sound buffer (anon_inode:snd-pcm-buffer). Android uses this access mode for the direct EXCLUSIVE sound device access by applications.
This requirement is for the proper SELinux audit.

Hello,
Thanks for keeping this moving forward.
Any suggestions for testing this? We can try to test it here in Android. It may be tricky because your patches may conflict with some proprietary Qualcomm changes in the kernel we are currently using.
Can I get a summary list of the patches required for kernel and tinyalsa?

Can I get a summary list of the patches required for kernel and tinyalsa?
The v6 is the last version, the full information is in the cover letter:
https://mailman.alsa-project.org/pipermail/alsa-devel/2019-February/145127.h... https://mailman.alsa-project.org/pipermail/alsa-devel/2019-February/145128.h... https://mailman.alsa-project.org/pipermail/alsa-devel/2019-February/145129.h... https://mailman.alsa-project.org/pipermail/alsa-devel/2019-February/145130.h...
Is there any test result from the practical use cases?
Basically now is the last chance for merging such an intrusive change for 5.2 kernel. If we miss it, it'll be postponed at least for 5.3, i.e. more three months.
thanks,
Takashi

Hello Takashi,
Sorry for the late reply. I got pulled off on some other projects.
We will try to test this in-house but we will need Qualcomm's help. I will also try to get some of our SOC partners to help with testing.
If we miss it, it'll be postponed at least for 5.3, i.e. more three months.
I think it will be difficult to complete the testing before that 5.2 deadline. We should probably shoot for 5.3. If someone needs it sooner that they will have the patches.
Thanks again for all this work.
I assume the four emails below have all the latest patches needed for rev 6.
Thanks, Phil Burk

Hello,
Thanks for keeping this moving forward.
Any suggestions for testing this? We can try to test it here in
Android. It may be tricky because your patches may conflict with some proprietary Qualcomm changes in the kernel we are currently using.

Fair enough, let's postpone the merge, then.

I believe yes.
Thanks for the quick update!

Did anything ever happen with this testing? These anonymous mmap patches never got merged.
Hello Mark,
Thank you for keeping this moving forward.
We sent the patches out to several SOC vendors for Android last year. They thanked us and said they would send feedback but never did. I pinged them again.
If we cannot get the changes tested by partners then I will try to get them tested internally.
For reference, this is being tracked internally at b/119712034
Thanks, Phil Burk

Hello Mark,
I wrote to Peter Huang at UniSOC
Did you ever get a chance to try the Linaro patches? Did they work for
you?

And Baolin also suggests that his patch is too complicated and difficult
to maintain, and a better solution is list as below, this new patch I have not tried.

It is hard for me to extract the relevant patches from those emails.
I would love to finish this project but I am not sure how. It seems we need to:
1) Evaluate the patches that Baolin suggests as a simpler alternative.
2) Test them in an Android kernel with AAudio MMAP.
If you can provide a clear description of the latest set of patches then maybe I can work with someone in-house to test this.
I am open to suggestions.

It is hard for me to extract the relevant patches from those emails.
I've attached them in mbox format (b4 is a great tool for extracting stuff from the archives on lore.kernel.org BTW:
). They seem to apply cleanly with git am -3 for me so should be easy enough to apply to your tree hopefully.

I agree that that's the best approach - hopefully the mbox helps with getting the patches onto a relevant tree, let me know if you still have trouble.
For reference it's the patches from Jaroslav in this thread we're on here, which can also be found here:
