SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0 + +=================================================================== +The Definitive SEV Guest API Documentation +=================================================================== + +1. General description +====================== + +The SEV API is a set of ioctls that are used by the guest or hypervisor +to get or set a certain aspect of the SEV virtual machine. The ioctls belong +to the following classes: + + - Hypervisor ioctls: These query and set global attributes which affect the + whole SEV firmware. These ioctl are used by platform provisioning tools. + + - Guest ioctls: These query and set attributes of the SEV virtual machine. + +2. API description +================== + +This section describes ioctls that is used for querying the SEV guest report +from the SEV firmware. For each ioctl, the following information is provided +along with a description: + + Technology: + which SEV technology provides this ioctl. SEV, SEV-ES, SEV-SNP or all. + + Type: + hypervisor or guest. The ioctl can be used inside the guest or the + hypervisor. + + Parameters: + what parameters are accepted by the ioctl. + + Returns: + the return value. General error numbers (-ENOMEM, -EINVAL) + are not detailed, but errors with specific meanings are. + +The guest ioctl should be issued on a file descriptor of the /dev/sev-guest +device. The ioctl accepts struct snp_user_guest_request. The input and +output structure is specified through the req_data and resp_data field +respectively. If the ioctl fails to execute due to a firmware error, then +the fw_error code will be set, otherwise fw_error will be set to -1. + +The firmware checks that the message sequence counter is one greater than +the guests message sequence counter. If guest driver fails to increment message +counter (e.g. counter overflow), then -EIO will be returned. + +:: + + struct snp_guest_request_ioctl { + /* Message version number */ + __u32 msg_version; + + /* Request and response structure address */ + __u64 req_data; + __u64 resp_data; + + /* bits[63:32]: VMM error code, bits[31:0] firmware error code (see psp-sev.h) */ + union { + __u64 exitinfo2; + struct { + __u32 fw_error; + __u32 vmm_error; + }; + }; + }; + +2.1 SNP_GET_REPORT +------------------ + +:Technology: sev-snp +:Type: guest ioctl +:Parameters (in): struct snp_report_req +:Returns (out): struct snp_report_resp on success, -negative on error + +The SNP_GET_REPORT ioctl can be used to query the attestation report from the +SEV-SNP firmware. The ioctl uses the SNP_GUEST_REQUEST (MSG_REPORT_REQ) command +provided by the SEV-SNP firmware to query the attestation report. + +On success, the snp_report_resp.data will contains the report. The report +contain the format described in the SEV-SNP specification. See the SEV-SNP +specification for further details. + +2.2 SNP_GET_DERIVED_KEY +----------------------- +:Technology: sev-snp +:Type: guest ioctl +:Parameters (in): struct snp_derived_key_req +:Returns (out): struct snp_derived_key_resp on success, -negative on error + +The SNP_GET_DERIVED_KEY ioctl can be used to get a key derive from a root key. +The derived key can be used by the guest for any purpose, such as sealing keys +or communicating with external entities. + +The ioctl uses the SNP_GUEST_REQUEST (MSG_KEY_REQ) command provided by the +SEV-SNP firmware to derive the key. See SEV-SNP specification for further details +on the various fields passed in the key derivation request. + +On success, the snp_derived_key_resp.data contains the derived key value. See +the SEV-SNP specification for further details. + + +2.3 SNP_GET_EXT_REPORT +---------------------- +:Technology: sev-snp +:Type: guest ioctl +:Parameters (in/out): struct snp_ext_report_req +:Returns (out): struct snp_report_resp on success, -negative on error + +The SNP_GET_EXT_REPORT ioctl is similar to the SNP_GET_REPORT. The difference is +related to the additional certificate data that is returned with the report. +The certificate data returned is being provided by the hypervisor through the +SNP_SET_EXT_CONFIG. + +The ioctl uses the SNP_GUEST_REQUEST (MSG_REPORT_REQ) command provided by the SEV-SNP +firmware to get the attestation report. + +On success, the snp_ext_report_resp.data will contain the attestation report +and snp_ext_report_req.certs_address will contain the certificate blob. If the +length of the blob is smaller than expected then snp_ext_report_req.certs_len will +be updated with the expected value. + +See GHCB specification for further detail on how to parse the certificate blob. + +3. SEV-SNP CPUID Enforcement +============================ + +SEV-SNP guests can access a special page that contains a table of CPUID values +that have been validated by the PSP as part of the SNP_LAUNCH_UPDATE firmware +command. It provides the following assurances regarding the validity of CPUID +values: + + - Its address is obtained via bootloader/firmware (via CC blob), and those + binaries will be measured as part of the SEV-SNP attestation report. + - Its initial state will be encrypted/pvalidated, so attempts to modify + it during run-time will result in garbage being written, or #VC exceptions + being generated due to changes in validation state if the hypervisor tries + to swap the backing page. + - Attempts to bypass PSP checks by the hypervisor by using a normal page, or + a non-CPUID encrypted page will change the measurement provided by the + SEV-SNP attestation report. + - The CPUID page contents are *not* measured, but attempts to modify the + expected contents of a CPUID page as part of guest initialization will be + gated by the PSP CPUID enforcement policy checks performed on the page + during SNP_LAUNCH_UPDATE, and noticeable later if the guest owner + implements their own checks of the CPUID values. + +It is important to note that this last assurance is only useful if the kernel +has taken care to make use of the SEV-SNP CPUID throughout all stages of boot. +Otherwise, guest owner attestation provides no assurance that the kernel wasn't +fed incorrect values at some point during boot. + + +Reference +--------- + +SEV-SNP and GHCB specification: developer.amd.com/sev + +The driver is based on SEV-SNP firmware spec 0.9 and GHCB spec version 2.0. -- cgit v1.2.3
