Serious question: Is *ANYONE* looking at these patches other than you and the maintainers? I first saw this code (inside Intel) in early 2020. In that time, not a single review tag has been acquired? $ egrep -ic 'acked-by:|reviewed-by:' kais-patches.mbox 0

They just didn't give Reviewed-by or Acked-by. Especially, after we had agreed that this series in general should enable TDX with minimal code change, Kevin helped to review this series intensively and helped to simplify the code to the current shape (i.e. TDMR part). He didn't give any of tags either (only said this series is ready for you to review), perhaps because he was _helping_ to get this series to the shape that is ready for you and other Intel reviewers to review.
Intel Trusted Domain Extensions (TDX) protects guest VMs from malicious host and certain physical attacks. This series provides support for initializing TDX in the host kernel. KVM support for TDX is being developed separately[1]. A new fd-based approach to supporting TDX private memory is also being developed[2]. The KVM will only support the new fd-based approach as TD guest backend. You can find TDX related specs here: https://software.intel.com/content/www/us/en/develop/articles/intel-trust-domain-extensions.html This series is rebased to latest tip/x86/tdx. You can also find this series in below repo in github: https://github.com/intel/tdx/tree/host-upstream I highly appreciate if anyone can help to review this series. Hi Dave (and Intel reviewers), Please kindly help to review, and I would appreciate reviewed-by or acked-by tags if the patches look good to you. Changelog history: - v4 -> v5: This is essentially a resent of v4. Sorry I forgot to consult get_maintainer.pl when sending out v4, so I forgot to add linux-acpi and linux-mm mailing list and the relevant people for 4 new patches. Since there's no feedback on v4, please ignore reviewing on v4 and compare v5 to v3 directly. For changes to comparing to v3, please see change from v3 -> v4. Also, in changelog histroy of individual patches, I just used v3 -> v5. - v3 -> v4 (addressed Dave's comments, and other comments from others): - Simplified SEAMRR and TDX keyID detection. - Added patches to handle ACPI CPU hotplug. - Added patches to handle ACPI memory hotplug and driver managed memory hotplug. - Removed tdx_detect() but only use single tdx_init(). - Removed detecting TDX module via P-SEAMLDR. - Changed from using e820 to using memblock to convert system RAM to TDX memory. - Excluded legacy PMEM from TDX memory. - Removed the boot-time command line to disable TDX patch. - Addressed comments for other individual patches (please see individual patches). - Improved the documentation patch based on the new implementation. - V2 -> v3: - Addressed comments from Isaku. - Fixed memory leak and unnecessary function argument in the patch to configure the key for the global keyid (patch 17). - Enhanced a little bit to the patch to get TDX module and CMR information (patch 09). - Fixed an unintended change in the patch to allocate PAMT (patch 13). - Addressed comments from Kevin: - Slightly improvement on commit message to patch 03. - Removed WARN_ON_ONCE() in the check of cpus_booted_once_mask in seamrr_enabled() (patch 04). - Changed documentation patch to add TDX host kernel support materials to Documentation/x86/tdx.rst together with TDX guest staff, instead of a standalone file (patch 21) - Very minor improvement in commit messages. - RFC (v1) -> v2: - Rebased to Kirill's latest TDX guest code. - Fixed two issues that are related to finding all RAM memory regions based on e820. - Minor improvement on comments and commit messages. v3: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/68484e168226037c3a25b6fb983b052b26ab3ec1.camel@intel.com/T/ V2: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/cover.1647167475.git.kai.huang@intel.com/T/ RFC (v1): https://lore.kernel.org/all/e0ff030a49b252d91c789a89c303bb4206f85e3d.1646007267.git.kai.huang@intel.com/T/ == Background == Intel Trust Domain Extensions (TDX) protects guest VMs from malicious host and certain physical attacks. TDX introduces a new CPU mode called Secure Arbitration Mode (SEAM) and a new isolated range pointed by the SEAM Ranger Register (SEAMRR). A CPU-attested software module called 'the TDX module' implements the functionalities to manage and run protected VMs. The TDX module (and it's loader called the 'P-SEAMLDR') runs inside the new isolated range and is protected from the untrusted host VMM. TDX also leverages Intel Multi-Key Total Memory Encryption (MKTME) to provide crypto-protection to the VMs. TDX reserves part of MKTME KeyIDs as TDX private KeyIDs, which are only accessible within the SEAM mode. BIOS is responsible for partitioning legacy MKTME KeyIDs and TDX KeyIDs. TDX is different from AMD SEV/SEV-ES/SEV-SNP, which uses a dedicated secure processor to provide crypto-protection. The firmware runs on the secure processor acts a similar role as the TDX module. The host kernel communicates with SEAM software via a new SEAMCALL instruction. This is conceptually similar to a guest->host hypercall, except it is made from the host to SEAM software instead. Before being able to manage TD guests, the TDX module must be loaded and properly initialized using SEAMCALLs defined by TDX architecture. This series assumes the TDX module are loaded by BIOS before the kernel boots. There's no CPUID or MSR to detect whether the TDX module has been loaded. The SEAMCALL instruction fails with VMfailInvalid if the target SEAM software (either the P-SEAMLDR or the TDX module) is not loaded. It can be used to directly detect the TDX module. The TDX module is initialized in multiple steps: 1) Global initialization; 2) Logical-CPU scope initialization; 3) Enumerate information of the TDX module and TDX capable memory. 4) Configure the TDX module about TDX-usable memory ranges and a global TDX KeyID which protects the TDX module metadata. 5) Package-scope configuration for the global TDX KeyID; 6) Initialize TDX metadata for usable memory ranges based on 4). Step 2) requires calling some SEAMCALL on all "BIOS-enabled" (in MADT table) logical cpus, otherwise step 4) will fail. Step 5) requires calling SEAMCALL on at least one cpu on all packages. Also, the TDX module could already have been initialized or in shutdown mode for a kexec()-ed kernel (see below kexec() section). In this case, the first step of above process will fail immediately. TDX module can also be shut down at any time during module's lifetime, by calling SEAMCALL on all "BIOS-enabled" logical cpus. == Design Considerations == 1. Initialize the TDX module at runtime There are basically two ways the TDX module could be initialized: either in early boot, or at runtime before the first TDX guest is run. This series implements the runtime initialization. This series adds a function tdx_init() to allow the caller to initialize TDX at runtime: if (tdx_init()) goto no_tdx; // TDX is ready to create TD guests. This approach has below pros: 1) Initializing the TDX module requires to reserve ~1/256th system RAM as metadata. Enabling TDX on demand allows only to consume this memory when TDX is truly needed (i.e. when KVM wants to create TD guests). 2) SEAMCALL requires CPU being already in VMX operation (VMXON has been done) otherwise it causes #UD. So far, KVM is the only user of TDX, and it guarantees all online CPUs are in VMX operation when there's any VM. Letting KVM to initialize TDX at runtime avoids handling VMXON/VMXOFF in the core kernel. Also, in the long term, more kernel components will need to use TDX thus likely a reference-based approach to do VMXON/VMXOFF is needed in the core kernel. 3) It is more flexible to support "TDX module runtime update" (not in this series). After updating to the new module at runtime, kernel needs to go through the initialization process again. For the new module, it's possible the metadata allocated for the old module cannot be reused for the new module, and needs to be re-allocated again. 2. Kernel policy on TDX memory The TDX architecture allows the VMM to designate specific memory as usable for TDX private memory. This series chooses to designate _all_ system RAM as TDX to avoid having to modify the page allocator to distinguish TDX and non-TDX-capable memory. 3. CPU hotplug TDX doesn't work with ACPI CPU hotplug. To guarantee the security MCHECK verifies all logical CPUs for all packages during platform boot. Any hot-added CPU is not verified thus cannot support TDX. A non-buggy BIOS should never deliver ACPI CPU hot-add event to the kernel. Such event is reported as BIOS bug and the hot-added CPU is rejected. TDX requires all boot-time verified logical CPUs being present until machine reset. If kernel receives ACPI CPU hot-removal event, assume kernel cannot continue to work normally and just BUG(). Note TDX works with CPU logical online/offline, thus the kernel still allows to offline logical CPU and online it again. 4. Memory Hotplug The TDX module reports a list of "Convertible Memory Region" (CMR) to indicate which memory regions are TDX-capable. Those regions are generated by BIOS and verified by the MCHECK so that they are truly present during platform boot and can meet security guarantee. This means TDX doesn't work with ACPI memory hot-add. A non-buggy BIOS should never deliver ACPI memory hot-add event to the kernel. Such event is reported as BIOS bug and the hot-added memory is rejected. TDX also doesn't work with ACPI memory hot-removal. If kernel receives ACPI memory hot-removal event, assume the kernel cannot continue to work normally so just BUG(). Also, the kernel needs to choose which TDX-capable regions to use as TDX memory and pass those regions to the TDX module when it gets initialized. Once they are passed to the TDX module, the TDX-usable memory regions are fixed during module's lifetime. This series guarantees all pages managed by the page allocator are TDX memory. This means any hot-added memory to the page allocator will break such guarantee thus should be prevented. There are basically two memory hot-add cases that need to be prevented: ACPI memory hot-add and driver managed memory hot-add. This series rejectes the driver managed memory hot-add too when TDX is enabled by BIOS. However, adding new memory to ZONE_DEVICE should not be prevented as those pages are not managed by the page allocator. Therefore, memremap_pages() variants are still allowed although they internally also uses memory hotplug functions. 5. Kexec() TDX (and MKTME) doesn't guarantee cache coherency among different KeyIDs. If the TDX module is ever initialized, the kernel needs to flush dirty cachelines associated with any TDX private KeyID, otherwise they may slightly corrupt the new kernel. Similar to SME support, the kernel uses wbinvd() to flush cache in stop_this_cpu(). The current TDX module architecture doesn't play nicely with kexec(). The TDX module can only be initialized once during its lifetime, and there is no SEAMCALL to reset the module to give a new clean slate to the new kernel. Therefore, ideally, if the module is ever initialized, it's better to shut down the module. The new kernel won't be able to use TDX anyway (as it needs to go through the TDX module initialization process which will fail immediately at the first step). However, there's no guarantee CPU is in VMX operation during kexec(), so it's impractical to shut down the module. This series just leaves the module in open state.
