Hi Joonas,

Thanks for the details review. I have apply the modification according to the review, and will update as rev2.
> Description is no more true for single-session only
DONE

> Same here, needs updating.
DONE

>Repeating the same comment as on previous review, avoid including anything in i915_drv.h and only include in the relevant files that require to touch the internals of the structs.
DONE

> We should aim to only take struct intel_pxp as parameter for intel_pxp_* functions.
DONE, I think the suggestion is reasonable. I expect that will modify the code significantly in the future commits, but let me try intel_pxp_* instead of i915

> This would be either a major kernel programmer error or the memory would be seriously corrupt. No point leaving such checks to production code, so GEM_BUG_ON(!i915) would be enough to run the checks in CI and debug builds.
DONE, I just remove the error check

> Also, we have not really initialized anything so it's really premature to print anything in this patch.
DONE, remove the print

> Same here, we really want to tighten the scope to intel_pxp and call this from intel_gt_fini(), so signature should look like: void intel_pxp_fini(struct intel_pxp *pxp)
DONE

Best regards,
Sean

Description is no more true for single-session only.

Same here, needs updating.

Repeating the same comment as on previous review, avoid including anything in i915_drv.h and only include in the relevant files that require to touch the internals of the structs.

I think this should instead go as part of intel_gt, not here.

We should aim to only take struct intel_pxp as parameter for intel_pxp_* functions.

This would be either a major kernel programmer error or the memory would be seriously corrupt. No point leaving such checks to production code, so GEM_BUG_ON(!i915) would be enough to run the checks in CI and debug builds.

I think -ENODEV would be more appropriate return value. Also, we should look into returning this error value from inside the actual init code.
We want the user to be able to differentiate between kernel does not support and hardware does not support status.

We shouldn't be printing the pointer values, especially not in INFO level messages. INFO level messages should be useful for the end-user to read. This is not very useful, we should instead consider something along the lines of:

"Protected Xe Path (PXP) protected content support initialized"

Also, we have not really initialized anything so it's really premature to print anything in this patch.

Same here, we really want to tighten the scope to intel_pxp and call this from intel_gt_fini(), so signature should look like:

void intel_pxp_fini(struct intel_pxp *pxp)
