On s390, we have cryptographic coprocessor cards, which are modeled on
Linux as devices on the AP bus. Each card can be partitioned into domains
which can be thought of as a set of hardware registers for processing
crypto commands. Crypto commands are sent to a specific domain within a
card is via a queue which is identified as a (card,domain) tuple. We model
this something like the following (assuming we have access to cards 3 and
4 and domains 1 and 2):
AP -> card3 -> queue (3,1)
-> queue (3,2)
-> card4 -> queue (4,1)
-> queue (4,2)
If we want to virtualize this, we can use a feature provided by the
hardware. We basically attach a satellite control block to our main
hardware virtualization control block and the hardware takes care of
most of the rest.
For this control block, we don't specify explicit tuples, but a list of
cards and a list of domains. The guest will get access to the cross
product.
Because of this, we need to take care that the lists provided to
different guests don't overlap; i.e., we need to enforce sane
configurations. Otherwise, one guest may get access to things like
secret keys for another guest.
The idea of this patch set is to introduce a new device, the matrix
device. This matrix device hangs off a different root and acts as the
parent node for mdev devices.
If you now want to give the tuples (4,1) and (4,2), you need to do the
following:
- Unbind the (4,1) and (4,2) tuples from their ap bus driver.
- Bind the (4,1) and (4,2) tuples to the vfio_ap driver.
- Create the mediated device.
- Assign card 4 and domains 1 and 2 to the mediated device
QEMU will now simply consume the mediated device and things should work.
For a complete description of the architecture and concepts underlying the
design, see the Documentation/s390/vfio-ap.txt file included with this
patch set.
v2 => v3 Change log:
===================
* Set APIE in VCPU setup function
* Renamed patch 13/15:
KVM: s390: Configure the guest's CRYCB
KVM: s390: Configure the guest's AP devices
* Fixed problem with building arch/s390/kvm/kvm-ap.c when CONFIG_ZCRYPT
not selected
* Removed patch introducing VSIE support for AP pending further
investigation
* Initialized AP maximum mask sizes - i.e., APM, AQM and ADM - from info
returned from PQAP(QCI) function
* Introduced a new device attribute to the KVM_S390_VM_CRYPTO attribute
group for setting a flag via the KVM_SET_DEVICE_ATTR ioctl to indicate
whether ECA_APIE should be set or not. The flag is used in the
kvm_s390_vcpu_crypto_setup() function to set ECA_APIE in the SIE block.
* Misc. formatting etc.
