SEV-SNP guests will be provided the location of special 'secrets' and
'CPUID' pages via the Confidential Computing blob. This blob is
provided to the run-time kernel either through a bootparams field that
was initialized by the boot/compressed kernel, or via a setup_data
structure as defined by the Linux Boot Protocol.

Locate the Confidential Computing blob from these sources and, if found,
use the provided CPUID page/table address to create a copy that the
run-time kernel will use when servicing CPUID instructions via a #VC
handler.

Just a quick note on this one. I know you'd recently suggested dropping
this check since it was redundant:

  https://lore.kernel.org/all/YfGUWLmg82G+l4jU@zn.tnic/

I've dropped the redundant checks from in this version, but with the
additional sanity checks you suggested adding, this function remained
relevant for v9 so we can provide user-readable warnings for "weird"
stuff in the table that doesn't necessarily violate the spec, but also
doesn't seem to make much sense:

  https://lore.kernel.org/all/YefzQuqrV8kdLr9z@zn.tnic/

But I also agree with your later response here, where sanity-checking
doesn't gain us much since ultimately what really matter is the
resulting values we provide in response to CPUID instructions, which
would be ultimately what gets used for guest owner's attestation flow:

  https://lore.kernel.org/all/YfR1GNb%2FyzKu4n5+@zn.tnic/

So I agree we should drop the sanity-check in this function since
there's no cases covered here that would actually effect the end
result of those CPUID instructions, nor do any of the checks here
violate the SNP spec...

...except possibly the checks that enforce that the Reserved fields
here are all 0, which we discussed here:

  https://lore.kernel.org/all/YeGhKll2fTcTr2wS@zn.tnic/

I followed up with our firmware team on this to confirm whether our
intended handling and the potential backward-compatibility issues
aligned with the intent of the SNP FW spec, and the guidance I got
on that is that those Reserved/MBZ constraints are meant to apply
to what a hypervisor places in the initial CPUID table input to
SNP_LAUNCH_UPDATE (or what the guest places in the MSG_CPUID_REQ
structure in the guest message version). They are not meant to
cover what the guest should expect to read for these Reserved fields
in the resulting CPUID table: the guest is supposed to ignore them
completely and not enforce any value.

I mentioned the concern you raised about out-of-spec hypervisors
using non-zero for Reserved fields, and potentially breaking future
guests that attempt to make use of them if they ever get re-purposed
for some other functionality, but their take on that is that such a
hypervisor is clearly out-of-spec, and would not be supported. Their
preference would be to update the spec for clarity on this if we
have any better suggested wording, rather than implementing anything
on the guest side that might effect backward-compatibility in the
future. Another possibility is enforcing 0 in the firmware itself.

So given their guidance on the Reserved fields, and your guidance
on not doing the other sanity-checks, my current plan to to drop
snp_check_cpuid_table() completely for v10, but if you have other
thoughts on that just let me know.

Thanks!

Yah, like stating that something should not be done in the spec is
going to stop people from doing it anyway. You folks need to understand
one thing: the smaller the attack surface, the better. And you need to
*enforce* that - not state it in a spec. No one cares about the spec
when it comes to poking holes in the architecture. And people do poke
and will poke holes *especially* in this architecture, as its main goal
is security.

Yes, this is the thing to do. If they're going to be reused in the
future, then guests can be changed to handle that. Like we do all the
time anyway.

Yes, and pls fix the firmware to zero them out, because from reading
your very detailed explanation - btw, thanks for taking the time to
explain properly what's not in the ABI doc:

https://lore.kernel.org/r/20220205154243.s33gwghqwbb4efyl@amd.com

it sounds like those two input fields are not really needed. So the
earlier you fix them in the firmware and deprecate them, the better.

Thx!

If you really wanna do it - and I think it might make sense to be able
to dump that table for debugging or whatever purposes, you could define
a cmdline parameter like

	sev=debug

or so, which would enable checking and dumping of the cpuid table.

For example...

Agreed, but SNP never relies on the hypervisor to be the single authority
on what security features are available, if these fields were ever
re-purposed for anything in the future that would almost assuredly be
accompanied by a new SEV status MSR bit (that can't be intercepted),
a new policy bit (which affects measurement), a new "type2" CPUID page
that would effect measurement (contents don't affect measurement in
current firmware, but the metadata, like what type of page it is, is),
etc.

At that point any guest code changes to make use of those new fields
could then fail any out-of-spec hypervisors trying to use those fields
without the requisite firmware/hardware support. So please don't take
my summary as an indication that the security relies on hypervisors
abiding by the spec, this is more a statement that an out-of-spec
hypervisor should not expect that their guests will continue working
in future firmware versions, and what's being determined here is
whether to break those out-of-spec hypervisor now, or later when/if
we actually make use of the fields in the guest code, and whether we
need to make clarifications in the spec to help implementations avoid
such breakage.

Ok, I'll follow up with the firmware team on this. But just to be clear,
what they're suggesting is that the firmware could enforce the MBZ checks
on the CPUID page, so out-of-spec hypervisors will fail immediately,
rather than in some future version of the spec/cpuid page, and guests
can continue ignoring them in the meantime.

I'll also note the type you spotted with the Table 13 reference and
see if there's anything else that can be cleared up there.

XCR0_IN/XSS_IN aren't needed by a guest if it follows the recommended
implementation and computes them on the fly, but they do still serve
a purpose in the context of firmware validation of 0xD,0x0/0xD,0x1
leaves, since those are validated relative to a particular
XCR0_IN/XSS_IN.

Whether a guest chooses to use the resulting firmware-validated version
of EBX for those, or compute it on it's own, is considered outside the
scope of the SNP firmware ABI, so I think the plan is to leave those
fields in the spec at least for current SNP version, and rely on the
implementation recommendations to document anything outside of that.

But since the recommendations need to be compatibile with the SNP
firmware ABI, I've updated the recommendations to have the guest to go
ahead and check for XCR0_IN={1,3}/XSS_IN=0 when searching for base
0xD,0x0/0xD,0x1 entries, so that there's no question of whether a guest
is supposed to expect XCR0_IN/XSS_IN to be 0.

Getting that document ready to send if a few.

Hope that helps clear things up, but please let me know if there's
anything else that needs clarification.

Thanks!

I think you're missing a very important aspect here called reality.

Let's say that HV is a huge cloud vendor who means a lot of $ and a
huge use case for SEV tech. And let's say that same HV is doing those
incompatible things.

Now imagine you break it with the spec change. But they already have
a gazillion of deployments on real hw which they can't simply update
just like that. Hell, cloud vendors are even trying to dictate how CPU
vendors should do microcode updates on a live system, without rebooting,
and we're talking about some wimpy fields in some table.

Now imagine your business unit calls your engineering and says, you need
to fix this because a very persuasive chunk of money.

What you most likely will end up with is an ugly ugly workaround after a
lot of managers screaming at each other and you won't even think about
breaking that HV.

Now imagine you've designed it the right and unambiguous way from the
getgo. You wake up and realize, it was all just a bad dream...

Yes, exactly. Fail immediately.
