Hyper-V guests on AMD SEV-SNP hardware have the option of using the "virtual Top Of Memory" (vTOM) feature specified by the SEV-SNP architecture. With vTOM, shared vs. private memory accesses are controlled by splitting the guest physical address space into two halves. vTOM is the dividing line where the uppermost bit of the physical address space is set; e.g., with 47 bits of guest physical address space, vTOM is 0x400000000000 (bit 46 is set). Guest physical memory is accessible at two parallel physical addresses -- one below vTOM and one above vTOM. Accesses below vTOM are private (encrypted) while accesses above vTOM are shared (decrypted). In this sense, vTOM is like the GPA.SHARED bit in Intel TDX. Support for Hyper-V guests using vTOM was added to the Linux kernel in two patch sets[1][2]. This support treats the vTOM bit as part of the physical address. For accessing shared (decrypted) memory, these patch sets create a second kernel virtual mapping that maps to physical addresses above vTOM. A better approach is to treat the vTOM bit as a protection flag, not as part of the physical address. This new approach is like the approach for the GPA.SHARED bit in Intel TDX. Rather than creating a second kernel virtual mapping, the existing mapping is updated using recently added coco mechanisms. When memory is changed between private and shared using set_memory_decrypted() and set_memory_encrypted(), the PTEs for the existing kernel mapping are changed to add or remove the vTOM bit in the guest physical address, just as with TDX. The hypercalls to change the memory status on the host side are made using the existing callback mechanism. Everything just works, with a minor tweak to map the IO-APIC to use private accesses. To accomplish the switch in approach, the following must be done: * Update Hyper-V initialization to set the cc_mask based on vTOM and do other coco initialization. * Update physical_mask so the vTOM bit is no longer treated as part of the physical address * Remove CC_VENDOR_HYPERV and merge the associated vTOM functionality under CC_VENDOR_AMD. Update cc_mkenc() and cc_mkdec() to set/clear the vTOM bit as a protection flag. * Code already exists to make hypercalls to inform Hyper-V about pages changing between shared and private. Update this code to run as a callback from __set_memory_enc_pgtable(). * Remove the Hyper-V special case from __set_memory_enc_dec() * Remove the Hyper-V specific call to swiotlb_update_mem_attributes() since mem_encrypt_init() will now do it. * Add a Hyper-V specific implementation of the is_private_mmio() callback that returns true for the IO-APIC and vTPM MMIO addresses [1] https://lore.kernel.org/all/20211025122116.264793-1-ltykernel@gmail.com/ [2] https://lore.kernel.org/all/20211213071407.314309-1-ltykernel@gmail.com/ [ bp: Touchups. ] Signed-off-by: Michael Kelley <mikelley@microsoft.com> Signed-off-by: Borislav Petkov (AMD) <bp@alien8.de> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/1679838727-87310-7-git-send-email-mikelley@microsoft.com |

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
