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.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
SEV Key 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 main ioctl to access SEV is KVM_MEMORY_ENCRYPT_OP. 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 runs normally even with a NULL argument, and therefore will
|
||
|
|
likely return ``EFAULT``). 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_INIT
|
||
|
|
---------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The KVM_SEV_INIT command is used by the hypervisor to initialize the SEV platform
|
||
|
|
context. In a typical workflow, this command should be the first command issued.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Returns: 0 on success, -negative on error
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
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_DEBUG_DECRYPT command can be used by the hypervisor to request the
|
||
|
|
firmware to decrypt the data at the given memory region.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|

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
|

|
The command returns an error if the guest policy does not allow debugging.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
9. KVM_SEV_LAUNCH_SECRET
|
||
|
|
------------------------
|
||
|

|
|
||
|
|
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.

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

|
|
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.
|
||
|
|
|

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
|
||
|
|
|
||
|

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 */

|
||
|
|
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
