Thanks.

Multiple TEEs (or rather Trusted OSs) can coexist on Armv8.3 and earlier. They
will not be isolated but play along nicely.

The intent is that prior to S-EL2 and multiple TOSs, each TOS will migrate to
using the SPCI spec. At this stage, there should be no need for a TOS specific
mediator in the Hypervisor. IOW, there should be a "generic" SPCI
mediator. Maybe, we can add a TEE type 'generic' later to enable access to any
TEE through this generic interface?

Support for multiple TOSs has raised other questions that we are trying to
address e.g. dependencies between them or on guests in Nwd, impact on scheduling
decisions made by Nwd etc. Support for OP-TEE in this patch stack does not need
to answer these just yet it seems. It is more likely that we will have to tackle
support for multiple TEEs afresh rather than treating it as an extension of
support for a specific TOS.

Happy to discuss further and I hope this helps in some way.

cheers,
Achin
