[RFC PATCH v2 00/20] x86: Secure Memory Encryption (AMD)

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This RFC patch series provides support for AMD's new Secure Memory
Encryption (SME) feature.

SME can be used to mark individual pages of memory as encrypted through the
page tables. A page of memory that is marked encrypted will be automatically
decrypted when read from DRAM and will be automatically encrypted when
written to DRAM. Details on SME can found in the links below.

The SME feature is identified through a CPUID function and enabled through
the SYSCFG MSR. Once enabled, page table entries will determine how the
memory is accessed. If a page table entry has the memory encryption mask set,
then that memory will be accessed as encrypted memory. The memory encryption
mask (as well as other related information) is determined from settings
returned through the same CPUID function that identifies the presence of the
feature.

The approach that this patch series takes is to encrypt everything possible
starting early in the boot where the kernel is encrypted. Using the page
table macros the encryption mask can be incorporated into all page table
entries and page allocations. By updating the protection map, userspace
allocations are also marked encrypted. Certain data must be accounted for
as having been placed in memory before SME was enabled (EFI, initrd, etc.)
and accessed accordingly.

This patch series is a pre-cursor to another AMD processor feature called
Secure Encrypted Virtualization (SEV). The support for SEV will build upon
the SME support and will be submitted later. Details on SEV can be found
in the links below.

AMD64 Architecture Programmer's Manual:

   SME is section 7.10
   SEV is section 15.34

This patch series is based off of the master branch of tip.

Sorry for the delay in getting v2 out.

Still to do: kexec support

Changes since v1:
- Added Documentation.
- Removed AMD vendor check for setting the PAT write protect mode
- Updated naming of trampoline flag for SME as well as moving of the
  SME check to before paging is enabled.
- Change to early_memremap to identify the data being mapped as either
  boot data or kernel data.  The idea being that boot data will have
  been placed in memory as un-encrypted data and would need to be accessed
  as such.
- Updated debugfs support for the bootparams to access the data properly.
- Do not set the SYSCFG[MEME] bit, only check it.  The setting of the
  MemEncryptionModeEn bit results in a reduction of physical address size
  of the processor.  It is possible that BIOS could have configured resources
  resources into a range that will now not be addressable.  To prevent this,
  rely on BIOS to set the SYSCFG[MEME] bit and only then enable memory
  encryption support in the kernel.
