I'm afraid I can't really help with this kind of certainty. My knowledge
about proprietary Qualcomm firmware is probably even more limited than
yours. However, my personal feeling is that the "TZ wants X" arguments
are most often just as badly based on superficial knowledge.
In simplified terms, the SMMU has a number of components connected to it
(the crypto BAM, USB controller, UFS, ...). When the components make
memory requests they are identified by a number of Stream IDs (SIDs).
The purpose of "iommus" in the device tree is to describe all SIDs that
belong to a particular device. These SIDs are then all assigned to a
context bank that allows the device to access selected regions in RAM.
It shouldn't matter *how* the SIDs are matched inside the SMMU, as long
as they end up at the correct context bank. The SMMU will look through
the configured Stream Match Registers (SMRs = SID + Mask) to find the
context bank that is assigned to the SID. The docs say "If MASK[i]==1,
ID[i] is ignored.". This means a SMR with ID=0x426 MASK=0x0011 is
definitely identical to ID=0x436 MASK=0x0011. Having the extra entry
will make absolutely no difference to the SMMU aside from wasting a
pointless SMR.
The links you posted suggest "TZ" looks at the SMRs allocated by Linux.
If that is really the case then I would expect that to be fundamentally
broken. In my opinion there is absolutely no guarantee how or in which
order Linux allocates the SMRs. Such functionality would either be
extremely complex or broken in tons of edge cases.
TL;DR: I cannot provide proof that removing this entry makes a
difference. I can just say that I doubt it does, and if it does, then we
have far more serious problems. The device tree is supposed to describe
the hardware ("This device makes memory requests with the following
SIDs") and not fundamentally broken peculiarities of the proprietary TZ
firmware ("registers must be programmed exactly with these values").
Thanks,
Stephan
