Hello,

  N.B.: the following text is mostly a repeat of cover letter from the
  previous RFC for the uninitiated, which can be found at

  https://lore.kernel.org/linux-serial/20200923151511.3842150-1-luzmaximilian@gmail.com/

  See "Changes" below for an overview of differences between the RFC and
  this patchset. I hope I have addressed all comments from that in this
  version, thank you again for those.

The Surface System Aggregator Module (we'll refer to it as Surface
Aggregator or SAM below) is an embedded controller (EC) found on various
Microsoft Surface devices. Specifically, all 4th and later generation
Surface devices, i.e. Surface Pro 4, Surface Book 1 and later, with the
exception of the Surface Go series and the Surface Duo. Notably, it
seems like this EC can also be found on the ARM-based Surface Pro X [1].

Functionality provided by this EC depends on the Surface model and can
(roughly) be broken down by their generations: Starting with 5th
generation devices (Surface Pro 2017/5, Surface Book 2, Surface Laptop
1, and later), the EC provides battery and thermal readings, as well as
access to the real-time clock. On 5th and 6th generations, these
features, specifically, are provided via the ACPI interface of the EC,
referred to as Surface ACPI Notify (SAN), i.e. they act as standard ACPI
devices of that type, but require a driver translating requests written
to an ACPI operation region to requests to the EC. On 7th generation
devices, the ACPI interface is (largely) gone, and has been replaced
with custom battery and thermal drivers, directly querying the EC.

Additionally, HID keyboard and touchpad input for Surface models with
these devices built in can be handled via the EC: On the Surface Laptops
1 and 2, this includes only the keyboard, while on the Surface Laptop 3
and Book 3, this includes both touchpad and keyboard. In this case,
actual input is provided as HID data and the EC connection acts as HID
transport, thus requiring a special transport driver for those devices
to work.

Further, all known devices (5th and later generations) also support
changing of performance/cooling modes, which can influence cooling
capabilities of the device (e.g. prefer silent operation over
performance), and may influence power limits (e.g. of the discrete GPU
found on Surface Books).

While this constitutes all major functionality, some more device
specific functionality is also handled by the EC. For example, on the
Surface Books, the EC handles detaching of the clipboard (i.e. the upper
part with screen and CPU) from the base (the lower part with keyboard
and optional discrete GPU) and can influence its behavior (i.e. it
provides an interface via which detachment can be requested, aborted, or
confirmed). It can also be used to detect if there has been a base
attached to the clipboard, and if so what type.

This patch-series adds the basis for supporting this EC and the features
provided by it, by, first, implementing a communication driver providing
a fundamental API for client drivers, handling specific aspects of the
EC. Additionally, it builds on top of that to provide a dedicated bus
and device type to better manage EC clients (and break it down pseudo-
device-wise), especially in the case when these client devices are not
described in ACPI, i.e. cannot be discovered by conventional means.
Furthermore, it provides support for debugging and prototyping via an
optional user-space interface, and, lastly, also support for the
aforementioned ACPI interface, allowing ACPI to communicate with the EC
directly.

This series only addresses 5th and later generation Surface models as
the communication interface has changed substantially from 4th to 5th
generation, and the 4th generation interface has not been reverse-
engineered yet. Specifically, the underlying transport has been changed
from HID feature and input-/output-reports to serial communication via
an UART and a custom protocol. Support for 4th generation devices may be
added in the future, but as currently not much is known about 4th
generation SAM, it yet remains to be seen if this can happen as addition
to this subsystem, or if it will be easier to implement this as separate
platform driver. Especially as the 4th generation EC does not seem to
provide much of the functionality found on 5th and later generations
(e.g. no battery status reporting, no thermal reporting, ..., we assume
it's just clipboard detachment on the Surface Book 1 and performance
mode setting).

In more detail, this series adds a driver for the Surface Serial Hub
(SSH), the 5th- and later-generation communication channel to the EC, a
pseudo-device and driver exposing a misc-device that can be used to
communicate with the EC from user-space, intended for debugging,
testing, and prototyping, as well as a driver for the Surface ACPI
Notify (SAN) device, i.e. the interface between ACPI and EC. Some more
details on those can be found on the individual commit messages.

This series, apart from the SAN and user-space drivers, does not add any
client drivers. This will be handled via future patches once the core
has been accepted (and the other client drivers have been cleaned up a
bit).

On the top level, EC communication via the SSH driver can be broken down
into requests (sent from host to EC), corresponding responses (sent from
EC to host, associated with and triggered by a request), and events
(sent from EC to host without association to a request). The SSH driver
manages all communication (i.e. matches responses to requests, enables
and disables events, and manages event handlers/notifiers installed by
client drivers). On the lower levels, SSH communication is packet-based,
and described in more detail in the documentation added in this series
(specifically ssh.rst).

This set of modules and drivers has been developed out of tree at [2]
and used/tested in the kernel we provide at [3] pretty much since its
beginnings. It has been developed by reverse-engineering the SSH
protocol, mostly through the ACPI interface, communication dumps
obtained from listening in on Windows, and deduction. So things may be
wrong. There have been some attempts at reverse-engineering existing
drivers, which also gave a bit of insight for development, however, I
haven't gotten very far on that front beyond some more higher-level
concepts and detecting a couple of new EC commands/confirming the
functionality of already known commands.

Driver and module names have been chosen to align with Windows driver
names, some field, variable, and concept names have been chosen to align
with ACPI code (or at least with what I think some of the more cryptic
names could mean and make sense in the respective context, e.g. IID ->
Instance ID, TC -> Target Category).

This patch-set can also be found at the following repository and
reference, if you prefer to look at a kernel tree instead of these
emails:

Thanks,
Max

[1]: The Surface Pro X is, however, currently considered unsupported due
     to a lack of test candidates and, as it seems, general lack of
     Linux support on other parts. AFAIK there is an issue preventing
     serial devices from being registered, on which the core driver in
     this series is build on, thus there is no way to even test that at
     this point. I'd be happy to work out any issues regarding SAM on
     the Pro X at some point in the future, provided someone can/wants
     to actually test it.

The Surface ACPI Notify (SAN) device provides an ACPI interface to the
Surface Aggregator EC, specifically the Surface Serial Hub interface.
This interface allows EC requests to be made from ACPI code and can
convert a subset of EC events back to ACPI notifications.

Specifically, this interface provides a GenericSerialBus operation
region ACPI code can execute a request by writing the request command
data and payload to this operation region and reading back the
corresponding response via a write-then-read operation. Furthermore,
this interface provides a _DSM method to be called when certain events
from the EC have been received, essentially turning them into ACPI
notifications.

The driver provided in this commit essentially takes care of translating
the request data written to the operation region, executing the request,
waiting for it to finish, and finally writing and translating back the
response (if the request has one). Furthermore, this driver takes care
of enabling the events handled via ACPI _DSM calls. Lastly, this driver
also exposes an interface providing discrete GPU (dGPU) power-on
notifications on the Surface Book 2, which are also received via the
operation region interface (but not handled by the SAN driver directly),
making them accessible to other drivers (such as a dGPU hot-plug driver
that may be added later on).

On 5th and 6th generation Surface devices (Surface Pro 5/2017, Pro 6,
Book 2, Laptop 1 and 2), the SAN interface provides full battery and
thermal subsystem access, as well as other EC based functionality. On
those models, battery and thermal sensor devices are implemented as
standard ACPI devices of that type, however, forward ACPI calls to the
corresponding Surface Aggregator EC request via the SAN interface and
receive corresponding notifications (e.g. battery information change)
from it. This interface is therefore required to provide said
functionality on those devices.

+===================
+Surface ACPI Notify
+===================
+
+The Surface ACPI Notify (SAN) device provides the bridge between ACPI and
+SAM controller. Specifically, ACPI code can execute requests and handle
+battery and thermal events via this interface. In addition to this, events
+relating to the discrete GPU (dGPU) of the Surface Book 2 can be sent from
+ACPI code (note: the Surface Book 3 uses a different method for this). The
+only currently known event sent via this interface is a dGPU power-on
+notification. While this driver handles the former part internally, it only
+relays the dGPU events to any other driver interested via its public API and
+does not handle them.
+
+The public interface of this driver is split into two parts: Client
+registration and notifier-block registration.
+
+A client to the SAN interface can be linked as consumer to the SAN device
+via |san_client_link|. This can be used to ensure that the a client
+receiving dGPU events does not miss any events due to the SAN interface not
+being set up as this forces the client driver to unbind once the SAN driver
+is unbound.
+
+Notifier-blocks can be registered by any device for as long as the module is
+loaded, regardless of being linked as client or not. Registration is done
+with |san_dgpu_notifier_register|. If the notifier is not needed any more, it
+should be unregistered via |san_dgpu_notifier_unregister|.
+
+Consult the API documentation below for more details.

From this help text I didn't get if it will be a module or what if I

Perhaps

static bool
ssam_event_matches_notifier(const struct ssam_event_notifier *n,
               const struct ssam_event *event)

(or even switch to 100 limit, also note notif ->n — no need to repeat same word)

If you need RCU (which is also the Q per se), why not use RCU list?

In above you mistyped 'which' as 'whic' or so, and here reference.

Better to spell out "error pointer" instead of cryptic ERR_PTR().

Can you use usual pattern for these UIDs, like
static const guid_t SSAM_SSH_DSM_GUID =
        GUID_INIT(0xd5e383e1, 0xd892, 0x4a76,
                 0x89, 0xfc, 0xf6, 0xaa, 0xae, 0x7e, 0xd5, 0xb5);
?

Also put a comment how this UID will look like in a string representation.

Don't we have some helpers for this? At least I remember similar code
went to one of PDx86 drivers like intel-vbtn or so.

Use proper types and their limits (limits.h missed?).

Don't split string literals. Had you run a checkpatch?
Please do and use strict mode.


...

Overall impression of this submission:
 - it's quite huge as for a single patch
 - it feels like quite an overengineered solution: READ_ONCE, RCU,
list + spin_lock, RB tree of notifiers, my head!
 - where is the architectural document of all these?

I thought this would be implied by the tristate options. So should I
simply add something like

     Choose m if you want to build the SAM subsystem core and SSH driver
     as module, y if you want to build it into the kernel and n if you
     don't want it at all.

These are basically packet and request IDs (that are sent to the EC and
received from it). XArray is a type of collection. I'm not sure how this
would work.

What happens is: For each new packet/request we get a new ID by
incrementing the counter (with wrap-around). This ID is used, for
example, to match ACK-packets to the corresponding data packet. The EC
will also use this to detect re-transmission, e.g. if we send two
packets with the same ID in sequence, the EC will detect the second
packet as re-transmission of the first one (which is the reason why
simple IDA won't work).

Furthermore, both the Windows driver and the EC itself (for packets sent
by it) use wrapping counters as well, so it seems to be the safest way
to do this without possibly triggering re-transmission detection by
accident.

In part, yes. I've referred to this as the "notifier status value" in
the (function) documentation. This is basically

     | bit 0       | bit 1    | bit 2 to 31         |
     +-------------+----------+---------------------+
     | handled-bit | stop-bit | error-value or zero |

The ssam_notifier_to_errno() function can be used to convert an error
value to this notifier status value. This is the same as the return
value of the notifier function and is described a bit better in the
documentation of struct ssam_notifier_block.

> What are you returning at the end?

The notifier status value as described above. This can be tested for the
SSAM_NOTIF_HANDLED and SSAM_NOTIF_STOP bits. The error value can, as
mentioned in the documentation, be extracted via
ssam_notifier_to_errno().

All in all, this is based on notifier_call_chain() and SRCU notifiers
(linux/notifier.h, kernel/notifier.c) in general, with the key
difference that it includes a bit to indicate if the notification has
been handled (or detect if it goes unhandled).

This part has been mostly copied and adapted from
notifier_chain_register(), which uses the exact same mechanism. I can
change it to use RCU list primitives if that's preferred.

I'd prefer returning an error (_DSM index 0 should always be present and

There is acpi_check_dsm(), which checks if a single function is
supported, but as far as I can tell no helper that returns a bitmask of
all supported functions. I can change it to use acpi_check_dsm() in
ssam_dsm_load_u32() though.

I did run checkpatch, however, I decided to split strings as some of
them are a bit long. When doing that, I only split at places where I
personally wouldn't expect a grep to succeed for, e.g. before or after
format specifiers. I though that this is okay as the main reason for
"don't split string literals" is searchability.

I tried to split it into parts, but this is the smallest I've been able
to get it while also keeping it a functional unit.

>   - it feels like quite an overengineered solution: READ_ONCE, RCU,
> list + spin_lock, RB tree of notifiers, my head!

Sorry about any headaches. My main goal was stability and reliability,
while keeping things somewhat performant and generic.

The "generic" part mostly because this whole thing is based on
reverse-engineering, and I believe that makes it easier to correct for
things that we got wrong, e.g. in what we think the protocol looks like.

Packet state is tracked via atomic flags (which is also laid out in a
comment), and is the simplest solution I found to track that. I found
that a simple enum based state will complicate things as the driver has
to support and properly handle re-submission of packets.

READ_ONCE and WRITE_ONCE are used to ensure proper access to state that
can be changed outside of the queue/pending locks (or under any one of
them). In general, I have tried to document all critical access of such
state with an explanation of why it is safe to do so.

RCU is only used for notifier callbacks, which is based on the SRCU
notifiers from linux/notifier.h and kernel/notifier.c, but adapted to
detect unhandled events.

While it is somewhat interwoven, the (RCU-based) notifier chain stores
the notifiers (one chain per target category) and the RB-tree stores the
number of times an event has been enabled. Essentially, those should be
seen as two separate parts (see e.g. documentation of struct ssam_nf,
which brings those two together).

So the RB-tree is not for notifiers, but for tracking which events are
enabled. Basically reference-counting for enabled events, as the EC
itself only allows turning them on/off. It's necessary to do that as
there can be multiple clients listening to the same event. It's also
required to do this with some sort of map, as (in context of
enabling/disabling) the events are uniquely identified by both their
registry and ID. This combination is a bit too complex to do that with a
simple array, so a RB-tree looked like the best solution.

Note that we store notifiers per target category only, so for that we
can use a simple array.

>   - where is the architectural document of all these?

What specifically do you want to see documented? I've documented the
basic communication and principles in another patch of this series, but
kept implementation details somewhat vague as I think those are better
covered by struct and function documentation (which won't become
outdated as easily as a separate documentation).

Thank you for your comments.

Max

I've looked at this again and noticed that I can guard the packet
timestamp by the pending lock and the packet priority by the queue lock
(after first submission). This makes reasoning about access to them
significantly easier and removes the need for WRITE_ONCE / READ_ONCE.

After that, READ_ONCE is used

- to access the controller state for smoke-testing to (hopefully) detect
   invalid request function usage (note that all other access to this
   state happens under the controller state lock)

- for the "safe counters", where access to the shared value is, after
   initialization, restricted to the increment function

- to update the timeout reaper, where access to the shared value
   (rtx_timeout.expires) is, after initialization, restricted to its
   modification function (ssh_ptl_timeout_reaper_mod() /
   ssh_rtl_timeout_reaper_mod()) and the timer function

- to access the request timestamp, which is, after initialization, only
   set once in the lifetime of a request (all other access is read-only)

- to access the 'ptl' reference of the packet, which, after
   initialization, is only set once, either at packet or request
   submission (all other access is read-only). Note due to this,
   READ_ONCE is only required for functions that can run concurrently
   with ssh_ptl_submit() and ssh_rtl_submit(), i.e. ssh_ptl_cancel() and
   ssh_rtl_cancel().

- to access request state outside of bit-ops when canceling

I'd argue that all of these cases can be checked and verified with a
reasonable amount of effort. Cancellation (last two points) is probably
the most complex one. Unfortunately, I don't see any way to simplify
that part without disallowing cancellation to run concurrently to
submission, which is something I'd like to support as this makes
implementing asynchronous requests in the future easier.

Max

Drop "depends on ACPI" since SURFACE_AGGREGATOR already depends on ACPI.

Okay, will do that.

Hi

I have attached some thoughts and comments inline.

I find it odd that here you return ENOENT, but in `__ssam_nfblk_insert()`
EINVAL is returned instead of EEXIST. I believe either both should be EINVAL,
or EEXIST+ENOENT.

I'm wondering if it's necessary to create a new function which contains just
a single line.

I'm also wondering if there's any reason why these static one-liner functions are
not explicitly marked inline.

A small note, "%#04x" would insert the "0x" prefix.

The `flags` argument is seemingly ignored.

I believe `struct_size(item, event.data, len)` could be utilized here.

I believe that if submission fails, `item` is leaked.

I think it'd be better to name it `ssam_notifier_is_empty()` to be consistent
with the rest of the patch.

I think there is a bit of incosistency: sometimes you use ** pointer + return int,
sometimes you return a pointer with potentially embedded errno. I think it would
be better if you stuck with one or the other.

If I see it correctly, this line is the only significant difference between this one

`snprintf()` takes care of the null byte, so simply `PAGE_SIZE` would've been
sufficient. But that doesn't matter much since you should use `sysfs_emit()`.

If I understand it correctly, it is possible that submission of a packet fails
for the first time, but it's scheduled for resubmission, and this retransmission
happens at the same time when the complete() callback is called. If that's the
case, then the callback is called with an error condition, no? Thus it is possible
that a packet is successfully submitted (for the second, third, etc. time), but the
complete() callback receives notification about failure? Or am I missing something?

I believe it should be noted (here and for `SSH_MSGOFFSET_FRAME()`) why the
`sizeof(u16)`s are necessary.

I believe it should be noted if the `status` argument is a regular errno,

I have to agree, this is quite a sizable patch, although I think it's well-commented,
which helps reading the code by a lot, however, in some places I feel like it's a bit
over-engineered (or maybe I just cannot fully appreciate the subject at hand at the moment),
nonetheless, I applaud your efforts, I can only imagine the hours that must have gone into it.

I prefer to create these sorts of abstractions as this, in my opinion,
keeps things contained and makes things easier to reason about. In this
case, it also allows for documentation.

Isn't inline more of a linkage keyword at this point? I fully expect any
compiler to inline things like this automatically at the first hint of
an optimization flag.

Can help to spot overflows when debugging, not that that should happen.

All functions taking 'struct ssam_nf *' as first parameter must run
synchronized with regards to each other, except for ssam_nf_call().
Same for all access to struct ssam_nf directly. Whether that is
guaranteed by nf->lock or other means (de-/initialization) doesn't
really matter. Only higher-level functions may run concurrently.

On the higher level, the lock must also be held to ensure that the EC
requests are sent at the right time (which is its main purpose).

Arguably that's not well documented here, I'll try to fix that.

The value returned by the corresponding DSM call is an integer, but
essentially only contains a bool value (zero vs. one). I thought using
false here explicitly for initialization helps clarify that. That also
makes it consistent with the "caps->d3_closes_handle = false" line
below.

My rule of thumb is: If it's one output parameter, use a pointer as
return value. If it's two or more output parameters (as in this case,
"buffer" is written to), use two pointer arguments and an int as return.

I noticed that ssam_client_bind doesn't follow that scheme so I'll
change that.

Debug and error messages are also different. I'll try to put the common

Yes, on purpose. The irq.wakeup_enabled flag is there to ensure that
disable_irq_wake() gets called only if there has been a successful
enable_irq_wake() call.

This seems to be a common pattern, see e.g. /drivers/mmc/host/sdhci.c

It does. The same happens in msgb_push_frame(), too. The kernel is
built with -fno-strict-aliasing though if I remember correctly.

I guess I can try to avoid that in those two functions with
put_unaligned and offsetof to compute the pointers.

Not sure I can follow you here. What do you mean by "fails for the first time"?

A couple of notes before I try to explain the error cases:

  - Resubmission only happens on timeout or NAK.

  - Only sequenced packets can be resubmitted (unsequenced are not added
    to the pending set, thus do not have a packet timeout and do not
    react to NAKs).

  - Completion means the packet gets locked, which prevents it from being
    resubmitted and retransmitted, and is removed from all collections.
  
  - Completion cannot be triggered by NAK. In case a NAK is received and
    all tries have been exceeded, the packet still waits for the timeout
    (or ACK, whatever happens first) one last time.

The error cases:

  - serdev: Failure to send via serdev results in immediate completion
    with error on the transmitter thread. Due to a NAK (or a _very_
    unlikely timeout), the packet can be queued for a second time at that
    point, but, as completion runs on the transmitter thread in this
    case, the packet is removed from the queue before the thread goes on
    to get the next packet.

  - Timeout: On resubmission, the timeout of a packet is disabled. It is
    (re-)armed directly before starting transmission on the transmitter
    thread.
    
    What _could_ now happen is that, for some reason, the transmitter
    thread waits the full timeout period between arming the timeout and
    actually sending it (which I'd consider highly unlikely). Note that
    "actually sending it" includes whatever asynchronous stuff the serdev
    core does after serdev_device_write_buf() returns.

    In that case, the packet can be transmitted _after_ it has received a
    timeout. So assuming this is the last try, then the packet can be
    sent after completion with -ETIMEDOUT.

    I believe this is what you meant?

    Again, I consider this highly unlikely as this would require either
    the scheduler to pause our thread for a full timeout period or
    require the serdev core to basically do nothing for a full timeout
    period. I'd argue this is a lot less likely than a dropped ACK packet
    from the EC (which results in the same thing: EC receives data but we
    think it didn't, causing a timeout error).

    Note that putting the timeout (re-)arming step after the last call to
    serdev_device_write_buf() doesn't really help either, as that only
    writes to the transport buffer. If we would want to guarantee that
    this doesn't happen, we'd have to explicitly wait for the hardware to
    finish transmitting, which essentially breaks the whole point of
    buffering.

    Also I prefer to have the timeout cover the transmission part as
    well. In the very least, this simplifies reasoning about it once I've
    restricted it to be (re-)set under the pending lock only (as
    mentioned in the message to Andy).

  - Finally, there is completion by cancellation or shutdown, for which
    the packet can have been (or currently be) transmitted successfully
    but completion returns with -ECANCELLED or -ESHUTDOWN, respectively.
    This is the expected behavior in those cases. Again, the completion
    procedure takes care of locking the packet and removing all
    references from the collections.

Also there's one success case, when we receive an ACK after a timeout
and during the re-transmission. Then the packet is completed with
success, but might still be transmitted once more. The EC should detect
that packet as re-submission via its packet ID and ignore it.

If I've read the documentation of kfifo_in() right, it takes at most n
elements. If n is greater than the free space, it will only take as much
elements as it has space. The return value of kfifo_in() is the number
of elements actually consumed. We simply return that here (as elements =
bytes) and ultimately let the serdev/tty core take care of handling
that.

This should actually be "sp.len + SSH_MESSAGE_LENGTH(0)", and also

Sure, the whole point of this function (and ssh_parse_command below) is
to get pointers to the data structures in the given buffer, i.e. create
aliases of the right types to the right places in the buffer. Not sure
how I'd do that differently, apart from copying.

I think that this would even work properly (in practice) without setting
-fno-strict-aliasing, as all data at this point is effectively
read-only. Furthermore, after the call access is restricted to the
non-aliasing parts respectively (frame and payload), whereas the
underlying buffer they do alias isn't accessed for the rest of that
scope (i.e. until the other references don't exist any more).

Anyway, as far as I know the kernel is built with -fno-strict-aliasing.
Please correct me if I'm wrong or relying on aliasing is frowned upon.

Right, I can add an explanation for this. One is for the SYN bytes, the

The comments state all we really know about these (through observation
and experimentation). The table itself has been extracted from the
Windows driver, but the abbreviations and values are all we're getting
from it.

I could go ahead and guess for a couple of them but for most of them we
haven't really seen any request at all, let alone know what the request
does.

For those that we now, the abbreviations should be fairly easy to guess
based on the comments, e.g. BAT -> battery, TMP -> temperature. I'm not
sure about BAS, which could mean base (as that's the detachment system
allowing to separate the top part of the Surface Books from the base).

REG is currently missing a comment because I'm not entirely sure if it's
just for registring (enabling/disabling) events or if it also has any
other purpose. I'll add a comment for it though, then we have comments
on all that are somewhat known.

I think much of what's probably considered over-engineered is the result
of reworking the core after that had some reliability issues (dropped
packets and timeouts). Specifically, the introduction of dedicated
transmitter and receiver threads combined with the need to properly
handle NAKs has lead to the current asynchronous system.

I have probably gone a bit too far towards generifying that, but I
belive that this should make it easier to adapt for protocol additions
or errors in the future.

Other parts, like the RB-tree for event reference counting seem,
unfortunately, to be necessary. Events are enabled by registry
(specifying which command to use to enable/disable the event) and ID
(which event to enable/disable on the registry). So without knowing
which registry and ID pairs are valid, we'll have to use some sort of
map. Could have been a simple list, but I think an RB-tree makes a bit
more sense here.

Thank you for your review!

Max

I also expect the compiler to inline such functions even without the `inline`
specifier. In retrospect I'm not sure why I actually made this comment, possibly
because of my preference, but I believe it's fine either way, so my comment is
moot, sorry.

Although I still find it pretty odd, your explanation makes sense to me.

I see, thanks for the explanation, what prompted me to make this comment

Yes, indeed, sorry, I missed the `+ SSH_MESSAGE_LENGTH(0)` part.

I don't believe it could cause issue here, I just wanted to note it.

I see, thanks for the clarification. For some reason, I believed the
"Known SSH/EC target categories" comment means that those are known, as in,
it is known what they are for, etc., not just the abbreviation.

Right, that can be misunderstood, sorry. It's probably best if I add a
comment explaining that in a bit more detail and noting where those
values and abbreviations come from.

Thank you for your work on this. It would be great if we can get better
support for the Surface line in the mainline kernel.

Since a lot of people have already commented on this series I think that
you have enough feedback to do a v2 addressing that feedback right? 

For now I'm going to assume that you will do a v2 addressing the
initial round of comments and not review this myself (IOW I'll review
this when v2 is posted).

Let me know if you see things differently.

Regards,

Hans

Sure, no need for you to review v1 at this point.
