From: linlzhan <redacted> On Qualcomm platforms the ICE hardware has a fixed number of physical keyslots shared across the host and all guest VMs. A userspace virtio-blk backend handling VIRTIO_BLK_T_CRYPTO_IN/OUT requests needs to translate a guest's virtual keyslot index to the corresponding physical ICE keyslot without letting one VM access another VM's slots. Add QCOM_ICE_SLOTS, a platform driver that implements bcp_slot_virt_ops for the /dev/blk-crypto-proxy device. It parses a qcom,ice-keyslot-map device-tree node describing the per-VM keyslot allocation table, where each child entry maps a guest_id to a contiguous physical slot range [slot_offset .. slot_offset + max_ice_slots). Entry 0 is reserved for the host; guest entries start at index 1 and are excluded from the guest-facing translation so that blk-crypto-proxy cannot accidentally route a guest request into the host's physical keyslots. The driver exposes two callbacks: get_guest_slots() — return the number of ICE keyslots allocated to a given guest_id; used by BCP_GET_CRYPTO_CAPS to populate the max_slots field in the virtio config space. vslot_to_pslot() — translate a (guest_id, virtual-slot) pair to the corresponding physical ICE keyslot index; used by BCP_SUBMIT_IO_BY_VSLOT before calling bio_crypt_set_ctx_by_slot(). The singleton pointer to the parsed table is RCU-protected; the hot path reads it lock-free. Probe validates that no two VM entries share a guest_id or overlapping physical slot ranges. Note: This patch is submitted for visibility. The keyslot partitioning is based on the current DT-based keyslot allocation with vm_id known. We are aware this may be revised to use a TZ SCM query interface in a future version of this series, submit it RFC for design discussion.

This does not look like useful printk message.
