Series SEV-SNP: Add KVM support for SNP certificate fetching via KVM_EXIT_COCO | expand

Commit Message

Michael Roth Nov. 19, 2024, 1:35 p.m. UTC
Confidential VMs have a number of additional requirements on the host
side which might involve interactions with userspace. One such case is
with SEV-SNP guests, where the host can optionally provide a certificate
table to the guest when it issues an attestation request to firmware
(see GHCB 2.0 specification regarding "SNP Extended Guest Requests").
This certificate table can then be used to verify the endorsement key
used by firmware to sign the attestation report.

While it is possible for guests to obtain the certificates through other
means, handling it via the host provides more flexibility in being able
to keep the certificate data in sync with the endorsement key throughout
host-side operations that might resulting in the endorsement key
changing.

In the case of KVM, userspace will be responsible for fetching the
certificate table and keeping it in sync with any modifications to the
endorsement key. Define a new KVM_EXIT_* event where userspace is
provided with the GPA of the buffer the guest has provided as part of
the attestation request so that userspace can write the certificate data
into it.

Since there is potential for additional CoCo-related events in the
future, introduce this in the form of a more general KVM_EXIT_COCO exit
type that handles multiple sub-types, similarly to KVM_EXIT_HYPERCALL,
and then define a KVM_EXIT_COCO_REQ_CERTS sub-type to handle the actual
certificate-fetching mentioned above.

Also introduce a KVM_CAP_EXIT_COCO capability to enable/disable
individual sub-types, similarly to KVM_CAP_EXIT_HYPERCALL.

Should this not also include a vmm_err code to report to the guest? We
need some way for user space to indicate that KVM should write the
vmm_err to the upper 32 bits of exit_info_2.
I don't think we have a snapshot of the GHCB accessible to userspace.

I'm still not quite able to get a good test of this patch series
ready. Making the certificate file accessible to the VMM process has
been unfortunately challenging due to how we manage chroots and VMM
upgrades.
Still, I'm stuck in the VMM implementation of grabbing the file lock
for the certificates and asking myself "how do I tell KVM to write
exit_info_2 = (2 << 32) | (exit_info_2 & ((1 << 32)-1) before entering
the guest?"
A __u32 vmm_err field of this struct would nicely make its size 64-bit aligned..

retracted. I needed to look 2 lines lower. I need to stop working this late.

+
+KVM_EXIT_COCO events are intended to handle cases where a confidential
+VM requires some action on the part of userspace, or cases where userspace
+needs to be informed of some activity relating to a confidential VM.
+
+A `kvm_exit_coco` structure is defined to encapsulate the data to be sent to
+or returned by userspace. The `nr` field defines the specific type of event
+that needs to be serviced, and that type is used as a discriminator to
+determine which union type should be used for input/output. If the exit is
+successfully processed by userspace, `ret` should be set to 0 to indicate
+success. A non-zero `ret` value will be treated as an error unless there is
+specific handling associated with a particular error code in the per-union
+type documentation.
+
+The parameters for each of these event/union types are documented below:
+
+  - ``KVM_EXIT_COCO_REQ_CERTS``
+
+    This event provides a way to request certificate data from userspace and
+    have it written into guest memory. This is intended primarily to handle
+    attestation requests made by SEV-SNP guests (using the Extended Guest
+    Requests GHCB command as defined by the GHCB 2.0 specification for SEV-SNP
+    guests), where additional certificate data corresponding to the
+    endorsement key used by firmware to sign an attestation report can be
+    optionally provided by userspace to pass along to the guest together with
+    the firmware-provided attestation report.
+
+    In the case of ``KVM_EXIT_COCO_REQ_CERTS`` events, the `req_certs` union
+    type is used. KVM will supply in `gfn` the non-private guest page that
+    userspace should use to write the contents of certificate data. In the
+    case of SEV-SNP, the format of this certificate data is defined in the
+    GHCB 2.0 specification (see section "SNP Extended Guest Request"). KVM
+    will also supply in `npages` the number of contiguous pages available
+    for writing the certificate data into.
+
+      - If the supplied number of pages is sufficient, userspace must write
+        the certificate table blob (in the format defined by the GHCB spec)
+        into the address corresponding to `gfn` and set `ret` to 0 to indicate
+        success. If no certificate data is available, then userspace can
+        either write an empty certificate table into the address corresponding
+        to `gfn`, or it can disable ``KVM_EXIT_COCO_REQ_CERTS`` (via
+        ``KVM_CAP_EXIT_COCO``), in which case KVM will handle returning an
+        empty certificate table to the guest.
+
+      - If the number of pages supplied is not sufficient, userspace must set
+        the required number of pages in `npages` and then set `ret` to
+        ``ENOSPC``.
+
+      - If the certificate cannot be immediately provided, userspace should set
+	`ret` to ``EAGAIN``, which will inform the guest to retry the request
+	later. One scenario where this would be useful is if the certificate
+	is in the process of being updated and cannot be fetched until the
+	update completes (see the NOTE below regarding how file-locking can
+	be used to orchestrate such updates between management/guests).
+
+      - If some other error occurred, userspace must set `ret` to ``EIO``.
+
+    NOTE: In the case of SEV-SNP, the endorsement key used by firmware may
+    change as a result of management activities like updating SEV-SNP firmware
+    or loading new endorsement keys, so some care should be taken to keep the
+    returned certificate data in sync with the actual endorsement key in use by
+    firmware at the time the attestation request is sent to SNP firmware. The
+    recommended scheme to do this is to use file locking (e.g. via fcntl()'s
+    F_OFD_SETLK) in the following manner:
+
+      - The VMM should obtain a shared/read or exclusive/write lock on the path
+	the certificate blob file resides at before reading it and returning it
+	to KVM, and continue to hold the lock until the attestation request is
+        actually sent to firmware. To facilitate this, the VMM can set the
+        ``immediate_exit`` flag of kvm_run just after supplying the certificate
+        data, and just before and resuming the vCPU. This will ensure the vCPU
+        will exit again to userspace with ``-EINTR`` after it finishes fetching
+        the attestation request from firmware, at which point the VMM can
+        safely drop the file lock.
+
+      - Tools/libraries that perform updates to SNP firmware TCB values or
+        endorsement keys (e.g. via /dev/sev interfaces such as ``SNP_COMMIT``,
+        ``SNP_SET_CONFIG``, or ``SNP_VLEK_LOAD``, see
+        Documentation/virt/coco/sev-guest.rst for more details) in such a way
+        that the certificate blob needs to be updated, should similarly take an
+        exclusive lock on the certificate blob for the duration of any updates
+        to endorsement keys or the certificate blob contents to ensure that
+        VMMs using the above scheme will not return certificate blob data that
+        is out of sync with the endorsement key used by firmware.

+
+This capability, if enabled, will cause KVM to exit to userspace with

+
+Calling KVM_CHECK_EXTENSION for this capability will return a bitmask of

+
+The argument to KVM_ENABLE_CAP is also a bitmask, and must be a subset
