Secure Encrypted Virtualization (SEV)
======================================
Overview
========
Secure Encrypted Virtualization (SEV) is a feature found on AMD processors.
SEV is an extension to the AMD-V architecture which supports running
virtual machines (VMs) under the control of a hypervisor. When enabled,
the memory contents of a VM will be transparently encrypted with a key
unique to that VM.
The hypervisor can determine the SEV support through the CPUID
instruction. The CPUID function 0x8000001f reports information related
to SEV::
0x8000001f[eax]:
Bit[1] indicates support for SEV
...
[ecx]:
Bits[31:0] Number of encrypted guests supported simultaneously
If support for SEV is present, MSR 0xc001_0010 (MSR_AMD64_SYSCFG) and MSR 0xc001_0015
(MSR_K7_HWCR) can be used to determine if it can be enabled::
0xc001_0010:
Bit[23] 1 = memory encryption can be enabled
0 = memory encryption can not be enabled
0xc001_0015:
Bit[0] 1 = memory encryption can be enabled
0 = memory encryption can not be enabled
When SEV support is available, it can be enabled in a specific VM by
setting the SEV bit before executing VMRUN.::
VMCB[0x90]:
Bit[1] 1 = SEV is enabled
0 = SEV is disabled
SEV hardware uses ASIDs to associate a memory encryption key with a VM.
Hence, the ASID for the SEV-enabled guests must be from 1 to a maximum value
defined in the CPUID 0x8000001f[ecx] field.
The KVM_MEMORY_ENCRYPT_OP ioctl
===============================
The main ioctl to access SEV is KVM_MEMORY_ENCRYPT_OP, which operates on
the VM file descriptor. If the argument to KVM_MEMORY_ENCRYPT_OP is NULL,
the ioctl returns 0 if SEV is enabled and ``ENOTTY`` if it is disabled
(on some older versions of Linux, the ioctl tries to run normally even
with a NULL argument, and therefore will likely return ``EFAULT`` instead
of zero if SEV is enabled). If non-NULL, the argument to
KVM_MEMORY_ENCRYPT_OP must be a struct kvm_sev_cmd::
struct kvm_sev_cmd {
__u32 id;
__u64 data;
__u32 error;
__u32 sev_fd;
};
The ``id`` field contains the subcommand, and the ``data`` field points to
another struct containing arguments specific to command. The ``sev_fd``
should point to a file descriptor that is opened on the ``/dev/sev``
device, if needed (see individual commands).
On output, ``error`` is zero on success, or an error code. Error codes
are defined in ``<linux/psp-dev.h>``.
KVM implements the following commands to support common lifecycle events of SEV
guests, such as launching, running, snapshotting, migrating and decommissioning.
1. KVM_SEV_INIT2
----------------
The KVM_SEV_INIT2 command is used by the hypervisor to initialize the SEV platform
context. In a typical workflow, this command should be the first command issued.
For this command to be accepted, either KVM_X86_SEV_VM or KVM_X86_SEV_ES_VM
must have been passed to the KVM_CREATE_VM ioctl. A virtual machine created
with those machine types in turn cannot be run until KVM_SEV_INIT2 is invoked.
Parameters: struct kvm_sev_init (in)
Returns: 0 on success, -negative on error
::
struct kvm_sev_init {
__u64 vmsa_features; /* initial value of features field in VMSA */
__u32 flags; /* must be 0 */
__u16 ghcb_version; /* maximum guest GHCB version allowed */
__u16 pad1;
__u32 pad2[8];
};
It is an error if the hypervisor does not support any of the bits that
are set in ``flags`` or ``vmsa_features``. ``vmsa_features`` must be
0 for SEV virtual machines, as they do not have a VMSA.
``ghcb_version`` must be 0 for SEV virtual machines, as they do not issue GHCB
requests. If ``ghcb_version`` is 0 for any other guest type, then the maximum
allowed guest GHCB protocol will default to version 2.
This command replaces the deprecated KVM_SEV_INIT and KVM_SEV_ES_INIT commands.
The commands did not have any parameters (the ```data``` field was unused) and
only work for the KVM_X86_DEFAULT_VM machine type (0).
They behave as if:
* the VM type is KVM_X86_SEV_VM for KVM_SEV_INIT, or KVM_X86_SEV_ES_VM for
KVM_SEV_ES_INIT
* the ``flags`` and ``vmsa_features`` fields of ``struct kvm_sev_init`` are
set to zero, and ``ghcb_version`` is set to 0 for KVM_SEV_INIT and 1 for
KVM_SEV_ES_INIT.
If the ``KVM_X86_SEV_VMSA_FEATURES`` attribute does not exist, the hypervisor only
supports KVM_SEV_INIT and KVM_SEV_ES_INIT. In that case, note that KVM_SEV_ES_INIT
might set the debug swap VMSA feature (bit 5) depending on the value of the
``debug_swap`` parameter of ``kvm-amd.ko``.
2. KVM_SEV_LAUNCH_START
-----------------------
The KVM_SEV_LAUNCH_START command is used for creating the memory encryption
context. To create the encryption context, user must provide a guest policy,
the owner's public Diffie-Hellman (PDH) key and session information.
Parameters: struct kvm_sev_launch_start (in/out)
Returns: 0 on success, -negative on error
::
struct kvm_sev_launch_start {
__u32 handle; /* if zero then firmware creates a new handle */
__u32 policy; /* guest's policy */
__u64 dh_uaddr; /* userspace address pointing to the guest owner's PDH key */
__u32 dh_len;
__u64 session_addr; /* userspace address which points to the guest session information */
__u32 session_len;
};
On success, the 'handle' field contains a new handle and on error, a negative value.
KVM_SEV_LAUNCH_START requires the ``sev_fd`` field to be valid.
For more details, see SEV spec Section 6.2.
3. KVM_SEV_LAUNCH_UPDATE_DATA
-----------------------------
The KVM_SEV_LAUNCH_UPDATE_DATA is used for encrypting a memory region. It also
calculates a measurement of the memory contents. The measurement is a signature
of the memory contents that can be sent to the guest owner as an attestation
that the memory was encrypted correctly by the firmware.
Parameters (in): struct kvm_sev_launch_update_data
Returns: 0 on success, -negative on error
::
struct kvm_sev_launch_update {
__u64 uaddr; /* userspace address to be encrypted (must be 16-byte aligned) */
__u32 len; /* length of the data to be encrypted (must be 16-byte aligned) */
};
For more details, see SEV spec Section 6.3.
4. KVM_SEV_LAUNCH_MEASURE
-------------------------
The KVM_SEV_LAUNCH_MEASURE command is used to retrieve the measurement of the
data encrypted by the KVM_SEV_LAUNCH_UPDATE_DATA command. The guest owner may
wait to provide the guest with confidential information until it can verify the
measurement. Since the guest owner knows the initial contents of the guest at
boot, the measurement can be verified by comparing it to what the guest owner
expects.
If len is zero on entry, the measurement blob length is written to len and
uaddr is unused.
Parameters (in): struct kvm_sev_launch_measure
Returns: 0 on success, -negative on error
::
struct kvm_sev_launch_measure {
__u64 uaddr; /* where to copy the measurement */
__u32 len; /* length of measurement blob */
};
For more details on the measurement verification flow, see SEV spec Section 6.4.
5. KVM_SEV_LAUNCH_FINISH
------------------------
After completion of the launch flow, the KVM_SEV_LAUNCH_FINISH command can be
issued to make the guest ready for the execution.
Returns: 0 on success, -negative on error
6. KVM_SEV_GUEST_STATUS
-----------------------
The KVM_SEV_GUEST_STATUS command is used to retrieve status information about a
SEV-enabled guest.
Parameters (out): struct kvm_sev_guest_status
Returns: 0 on success, -negative on error
::
struct kvm_sev_guest_status {
__u32 handle; /* guest handle */
__u32 policy; /* guest policy */
__u8 state; /* guest state (see enum below) */
};
SEV guest state:
::
enum {
SEV_STATE_INVALID = 0;
SEV_STATE_LAUNCHING, /* guest is currently being launched */
SEV_STATE_SECRET, /* guest is being launched and ready to accept the ciphertext data */
SEV_STATE_RUNNING, /* guest is fully launched and running */
SEV_STATE_RECEIVING, /* guest is being migrated in from another SEV machine */
SEV_STATE_SENDING /* guest is getting migrated out to another SEV machine */
};
7. KVM_SEV_DBG_DECRYPT
----------------------
The KVM_SEV_DEBUG_DECRYPT command can be used by the hypervisor to request the
firmware to decrypt the data at the given memory region.
Parameters (in): struct kvm_sev_dbg
Returns: 0 on success, -negative on error
::
struct kvm_sev_dbg {
__u64 src_uaddr; /* userspace address of data to decrypt */
__u64 dst_uaddr; /* userspace address of destination */
__u32 len; /* length of memory region to decrypt */
};
The command returns an error if the guest policy does not allow debugging.
8. KVM_SEV_DBG_ENCRYPT
----------------------
The KVM_SEV_DEBUG_ENCRYPT command can be used by the hypervisor to request the
firmware to encrypt the data at the given memory region.
Parameters (in): struct kvm_sev_dbg
Returns: 0 on success, -negative on error
::
struct kvm_sev_dbg {
__u64 src_uaddr; /* userspace address of data to encrypt */
__u64 dst_uaddr; /* userspace address of destination */
__u32 len; /* length of memory region to encrypt */
};
The command returns an error if the guest policy does not allow debugging.
9. KVM_SEV_LAUNCH_SECRET
------------------------
The KVM_SEV_LAUNCH_SECRET command can be used by the hypervisor to inject secret
data after the measurement has been validated by the guest owner.
Parameters (in): struct kvm_sev_launch_secret
Returns: 0 on success, -negative on error
::
struct kvm_sev_launch_secret {
__u64 hdr_uaddr; /* userspace address containing the packet header */
__u32 hdr_len;
__u64 guest_uaddr; /* the guest memory region where the secret should be injected */
__u32 guest_len;
__u64 trans_uaddr; /* the hypervisor memory region which contains the secret */
__u32 trans_len;
};
10. KVM_SEV_GET_ATTESTATION_REPORT
----------------------------------
The KVM_SEV_GET_ATTESTATION_REPORT command can be used by the hypervisor to query the attestation
report containing the SHA-256 digest of the guest memory and VMSA passed through the KVM_SEV_LAUNCH
commands and signed with the PEK. The digest returned by the command should match the digest
used by the guest owner with the KVM_SEV_LAUNCH_MEASURE.
If len is zero on entry, the measurement blob length is written to len and
uaddr is unused.
Parameters (in): struct kvm_sev_attestation
Returns: 0 on success, -negative on error
::
struct kvm_sev_attestation_report {
__u8 mnonce[16]; /* A random mnonce that will be placed in the report */
__u64 uaddr; /* userspace address where the report should be copied */
__u32 len;
};
11. KVM_SEV_SEND_START
----------------------
The KVM_SEV_SEND_START command can be used by the hypervisor to create an
outgoing guest encryption context.
If session_len is zero on entry, the length of the guest session information is
written to session_len and all other fields are not used.
Parameters (in): struct kvm_sev_send_start
Returns: 0 on success, -negative on error
::
struct kvm_sev_send_start {
__u32 policy; /* guest policy */
__u64 pdh_cert_uaddr; /* platform Diffie-Hellman certificate */
__u32 pdh_cert_len;
__u64 plat_certs_uaddr; /* platform certificate chain */
__u32 plat_certs_len;
__u64 amd_certs_uaddr; /* AMD certificate */
__u32 amd_certs_len;
__u64 session_uaddr; /* Guest session information */
__u32 session_len;
};
12. KVM_SEV_SEND_UPDATE_DATA
----------------------------
The KVM_SEV_SEND_UPDATE_DATA command can be used by the hypervisor to encrypt the
outgoing guest memory region with the encryption context creating using
KVM_SEV_SEND_START.
If hdr_len or trans_len are zero on entry, the length of the packet header and
transport region are written to hdr_len and trans_len respectively, and all
other fields are not used.
Parameters (in): struct kvm_sev_send_update_data
Returns: 0 on success, -negative on error
::
struct kvm_sev_launch_send_update_data {
__u64 hdr_uaddr; /* userspace address containing the packet header */
__u32 hdr_len;
__u64 guest_uaddr; /* the source memory region to be encrypted */
__u32 guest_len;
__u64 trans_uaddr; /* the destination memory region */
__u32 trans_len;
};
13. KVM_SEV_SEND_FINISH
------------------------
After completion of the migration flow, the KVM_SEV_SEND_FINISH command can be
issued by the hypervisor to delete the encryption context.
Returns: 0 on success, -negative on error
14. KVM_SEV_SEND_CANCEL
------------------------
After completion of SEND_START, but before SEND_FINISH, the source VMM can issue the
SEND_CANCEL command to stop a migration. This is necessary so that a cancelled
migration can restart with a new target later.
Returns: 0 on success, -negative on error
15. KVM_SEV_RECEIVE_START
-------------------------
The KVM_SEV_RECEIVE_START command is used for creating the memory encryption
context for an incoming SEV guest. To create the encryption context, the user must
provide a guest policy, the platform public Diffie-Hellman (PDH) key and session
information.
Parameters: struct kvm_sev_receive_start (in/out)
Returns: 0 on success, -negative on error
::
struct kvm_sev_receive_start {
__u32 handle; /* if zero then firmware creates a new handle */
__u32 policy; /* guest's policy */
__u64 pdh_uaddr; /* userspace address pointing to the PDH key */
__u32 pdh_len;
__u64 session_uaddr; /* userspace address which points to the guest session information */
__u32 session_len;
};
On success, the 'handle' field contains a new handle and on error, a negative value.
For more details, see SEV spec Section 6.12.
16. KVM_SEV_RECEIVE_UPDATE_DATA
-------------------------------
The KVM_SEV_RECEIVE_UPDATE_DATA command can be used by the hypervisor to copy
the incoming buffers into the guest memory region with encryption context
created during the KVM_SEV_RECEIVE_START.
Parameters (in): struct kvm_sev_receive_update_data
Returns: 0 on success, -negative on error
::
struct kvm_sev_launch_receive_update_data {
__u64 hdr_uaddr; /* userspace address containing the packet header */
__u32 hdr_len;
__u64 guest_uaddr; /* the destination guest memory region */
__u32 guest_len;
__u64 trans_uaddr; /* the incoming buffer memory region */
__u32 trans_len;
};
17. KVM_SEV_RECEIVE_FINISH
--------------------------
After completion of the migration flow, the KVM_SEV_RECEIVE_FINISH command can be
issued by the hypervisor to make the guest ready for execution.
Returns: 0 on success, -negative on error
Device attribute API
====================
Attributes of the SEV implementation can be retrieved through the
``KVM_HAS_DEVICE_ATTR`` and ``KVM_GET_DEVICE_ATTR`` ioctls on the ``/dev/kvm``
device node, using group ``KVM_X86_GRP_SEV``.
Currently only one attribute is implemented:
* ``KVM_X86_SEV_VMSA_FEATURES``: return the set of all bits that
are accepted in the ``vmsa_features`` of ``KVM_SEV_INIT2``.
Firmware Management
===================
The SEV guest key management is handled by a separate processor called the AMD
Secure Processor (AMD-SP). Firmware running inside the AMD-SP provides a secure
key management interface to perform common hypervisor activities such as
encrypting bootstrap code, snapshot, migrating and debugging the guest. For more
information, see the SEV Key Management spec [api-spec]_
The AMD-SP firmware can be initialized either by using its own non-volatile
storage or the OS can manage the NV storage for the firmware using
parameter ``init_ex_path`` of the ``ccp`` module. If the file specified
by ``init_ex_path`` does not exist or is invalid, the OS will create or
override the file with PSP non-volatile storage.
