SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0 + +=================================================================== +TDX Guest API Documentation +=================================================================== + +1. General description +====================== + +The TDX guest driver exposes IOCTL interfaces via the /dev/tdx-guest misc +device to allow userspace to get certain TDX guest-specific details. + +2. API description +================== + +In this section, for each supported IOCTL, the following information is +provided along with a generic description. + +:Input parameters: Parameters passed to the IOCTL and related details. +:Output: Details about output data and return value (with details about + the non common error values). + +2.1 TDX_CMD_GET_REPORT0 +----------------------- + +:Input parameters: struct tdx_report_req +:Output: Upon successful execution, TDREPORT data is copied to + tdx_report_req.tdreport and return 0. Return -EINVAL for invalid + operands, -EIO on TDCALL failure or standard error number on other + common failures. + +The TDX_CMD_GET_REPORT0 IOCTL can be used by the attestation software to get +the TDREPORT0 (a.k.a. TDREPORT subtype 0) from the TDX module using +TDCALL[TDG.MR.REPORT]. + +A subtype index is added at the end of this IOCTL CMD to uniquely identify the +subtype-specific TDREPORT request. Although the subtype option is mentioned in +the TDX Module v1.0 specification, section titled "TDG.MR.REPORT", it is not +currently used, and it expects this value to be 0. So to keep the IOCTL +implementation simple, the subtype option was not included as part of the input +ABI. However, in the future, if the TDX Module supports more than one subtype, +a new IOCTL CMD will be created to handle it. To keep the IOCTL naming +consistent, a subtype index is added as part of the IOCTL CMD. + +Reference +--------- + +TDX reference material is collected here: + +https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/developer/articles/technical/intel-trust-domain-extensions.html + +The driver is based on TDX module specification v1.0 and TDX GHCI specification v1.0. diff --git a/Documentation/virt/index.rst b/Documentation/virt/index.rst index 2f1cffa87b1b..56e003ff28ff 100644 --- a/Documentation/virt/index.rst +++ b/Documentation/virt/index.rst @@ -14,6 +14,7 @@ Linux Virtualization Support ne_overview acrn/index coco/sev-guest + coco/tdx-guest hyperv/index .. only:: html and subproject diff --git a/Documentation/x86/tdx.rst b/Documentation/x86/tdx.rst index b8fa4329e1a5..dc8d9fd2c3f7 100644 --- a/Documentation/x86/tdx.rst +++ b/Documentation/x86/tdx.rst @@ -210,6 +210,49 @@ converted to shared on boot.

Check force_dma_unencrypted() for details. +Attestation +=========== + +Attestation is used to verify the TDX guest trustworthiness to other +entities before provisioning secrets to the guest. For example, a key +server may want to use attestation to verify that the guest is the +desired one before releasing the encryption keys to mount the encrypted +rootfs or a secondary drive. + +The TDX module records the state of the TDX guest in various stages of +the guest boot process using the build time measurement register (MRTD) +and runtime measurement registers (RTMR). Measurements related to the +guest initial configuration and firmware image are recorded in the MRTD +register. Measurements related to initial state, kernel image, firmware +image, command line options, initrd, ACPI tables, etc are recorded in +RTMR registers. For more details, as an example, please refer to TDX +Virtual Firmware design specification, section titled "TD Measurement". +At TDX guest runtime, the attestation process is used to attest to these +measurements. + +The attestation process consists of two steps: TDREPORT generation and +Quote generation. + +TDX guest uses TDCALL[TDG.MR.REPORT] to get the TDREPORT (TDREPORT_STRUCT) +from the TDX module. TDREPORT is a fixed-size data structure generated by +the TDX module which contains guest-specific information (such as build +and boot measurements), platform security version, and the MAC to protect +the integrity of the TDREPORT. A user-provided 64-Byte REPORTDATA is used +as input and included in the TDREPORT. Typically it can be some nonce +provided by attestation service so the TDREPORT can be verified uniquely. +More details about the TDREPORT can be found in Intel TDX Module +specification, section titled "TDG.MR.REPORT Leaf". + +After getting the TDREPORT, the second step of the attestation process +is to send it to the Quoting Enclave (QE) to generate the Quote. TDREPORT +by design can only be verified on the local platform as the MAC key is +bound to the platform. To support remote verification of the TDREPORT, +TDX leverages Intel SGX Quoting Enclave to verify the TDREPORT locally +and convert it to a remotely verifiable Quote. Method of sending TDREPORT +to QE is implementation specific. Attestation software can choose +whatever communication channel available (i.e. vsock or TCP/IP) to +send the TDREPORT to QE and receive the Quote. + References ========== |
