[PATCH v1 0/2] ufs: rpmb: make RPMB usable with OP-TEE key derivation

by Jorge Ramirez-Ortiz

This series makes UFS RPMB work out of the box with an OP-TEE that implements the standard eMMC RPMB key-derivation flow, without requiring any fundamental changes on the OP-TEE side. RPMB provides an authenticated, replay-protected storage area whose security relies on a secret authentication key. In our setup that key is never exposed to the kernel: OP-TEE derives it in the secure world from its hardware-unique key and a device identifier (dev_id) that the RPMB core hands down. OP-TEE's implementation targets eMMC, where dev_id is the 16-byte eMMC CID, and both the fixed length and the raw-CID layout are baked into its key derivation. Two things stand in the way of reusing that same, unmodified OP-TEE flow for UFS RPMB: 1. On a cold boot the very first frame sent to the RPMB well-known LU comes back with a power-on UNIT ATTENTION (ASC 0x29), which the SCSI core reports rather than retries. RPMB has no earlier guaranteed access that could clear the condition first, so RPMB fails on every power cycle. Patch 1 asks the SCSI core to retry the power-on UNIT ATTENTION on the RPMB WLUN. 2. The UFS RPMB id is "<device_id>-R<region>", which is variable length and longer than 16 bytes. Passing it verbatim would tie the derived key to a length OP-TEE does not expect and diverge from the fixed eMMC CID ABI. Patch 2 hashes it into a fixed 16-byte dev_id with blake2s, keeping the key stable and unique per region while matching the eMMC CID layout OP-TEE relies on. The hash algorithm and input string are thus part of the key-derivation ABI and must stay stable. With both patches, UFS RPMB is functional from the first access after a cold boot and derives keys through the existing eMMC-style OP-TEE flow, (requires minimal OP-TEE changes pending on the CID proposal done here).

[PATCH] Documentation: Extend the real-time hardware bits with some firmware bits

by Sebastian Andrzej Siewior

I have been reviewing how OP‑TEE is implemented and how secure‑world invocations behave. The goal was to determine whether an OP‑TEE call can delay the Linux side and introduce latency depending on the time spent in the secure world. Similar latency effects are already known for EFI runtime services, but this was not documented. To mitigate the impact, EFI runtime invocations can be restricted to specific CPUs so that real‑time workloads on other CPUs remain unaffected. This mechanism, however, is only described in the commit that introduced it. This change adds a firmware section that documents these behaviours explicitly. It highlights cases where firmware can delay the kernel, information that may be unfamiliar to some users and surprising-or concerning-to others. Assisted-by: Microsoft-Copilot Signed-off-by: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior <bigeasy(a)linutronix.de> --- I would appreciate an ACK from the OP-TEE camp that I got my little research right.

The goal of this project is to validate real-time network communication. It can be thought of as a "cyclictest" for networking and also serves as a starting point for application development. + +Firmware +-------- + +The firmware often plays a significant role in system operation because it can +perform tasks that the kernel cannot directly access, and in some cases it can +even preempt or intercept the kernel. + +A common example of firmware assisting the kernel is when it provides a generic +interface to a resource. Instead of accessing an RTC chip through an I2C host +controller, the kernel may query the firmware for the current time, and the +firmware then accesses the RTC behind the scenes. + +Firmware can also intercept kernel execution by providing services that +temporarily take control of the system. One example is memory scrubbing, where +the firmware periodically pauses the kernel, reads back portions of system +memory, and then returns control. During this time, the kernel is effectively +interrupted. +In contrast, some systems provide hardware‑based memory scrubbing, which +operates independently of firmware or software. See +Documentation/edac/scrub.rst for details. + +If the kernel is intercepted for longer periods then these periods can be made +visible with the hardware latency detector. See +Documentation/trace/hwlat_detector.rst. + +The kernel can also be intercepted in response to specific events, such as +overheating. In this case, the firmware may throttle the CPU or shut it down +immediately to prevent hardware damage. + +Unless the firmware is well documented, it should be thoroughly tested to +uncover any unexpected behaviour. + +EFI +~~~~ + +EFI provides runtime services that act as a communication interface between the +firmware and the operating system. One such service is reading and writing EFI +variables, which are used, for example, to determine the boot source. + +Invoking a runtime service may require the architecture to disable kernel +preemption or interrupts during the call. This means the duration of a service +invocation directly affects the system’s observable latency. There is also +nothing that prevents a service call from disabling interrupts internally while +it runs. + +For these reasons, EFI runtime services are disabled by default on a PREEMPT_RT +kernel. They can still be enabled at boot time or via a Kconfig option if +required. +The native EFI runtime service implementation (where both the EFI service and +the kernel are either 32‑bit or 64‑bit executables) uses a wrapper mechanism +that invokes the service through a dedicated workqueue. This workqueue is named +efi_runtime, and it can be restricted to a housekeeping CPU using the +``/sys/devices/virtual/workqueue/efi_runtime/cpumask`` sysfs file. Assigning it +to a housekeeping CPU ensures that potentially long service invocations do not +impact the real‑time workload which is restricted to other CPUs. + +It must also be verified that the runtime services behave as expected. Some +implementations on the x86 architecture pause all other CPUs while one CPU +performs the service call. In such cases, the interruption affects all CPUs, +and restricting the workqueue to a single CPU provides no benefit. + +OP-TEE (ARM) +~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +OP‑TEE uses a global serialization mechanism (the "big lock"), ensuring that on +each core only one OP‑TEE thread executes secure‑world code at a time. + +Execution flows from the normal world (Linux) into the secure world (OP‑TEE) +through the secure monitor at EL3. Linux and OP‑TEE cannot disable or mask each +other’s interrupts because both run at EL1 in different security states. + +Architecturally, the secure monitor can mask or reroute normal‑world interrupts +before entering the secure world. In a correct OP‑TEE/ TF‑A implementation, it +does not do this for the duration of secure calls. Normal‑world interrupts +remain deliverable, and a normal‑world IRQ will preempt OP‑TEE via EL3 and +return control to Linux. + +Secure‑world interrupts (FIQs) are possible if the SoC routes a device's +interrupt as secure. Such a secure FIQ will preempt Linux immediately, trap +into EL3, and transfer control to OP‑TEE's secure interrupt handler. Linux +cannot mask or preempt this. Secure FIQ handlers must therefore be extremely +short to avoid introducing noticeable latency. + +The transition from normal world -> secure monitor -> OP‑TEE and back introduces +additional latency due to world switching and context save/ restore. This +overhead is typically a few microseconds and usually remains in the noise +floor. + +If the secure monitor masks normal‑world interrupts during OP‑TEE invocations, +or if OP‑TEE uses long‑running secure FIQ handlers, then OP‑TEE can introduce +measurable latency spikes. -- 2.53.0

[PATCH v9 0/6] arm_ffa, KVM: Fix FF-A emad offset calculations

by Sebastian Ene

Hi all, This series fixes the Endpoint Memory Access Descriptor (EMAD) offset calculations and adds the necessary bounds checks for both the core FF-A driver and the pKVM hypervisor. Prior to FF-A version 1.1, the memory region header didn't specify an explicit offset for the EMADs, leading to the assumption that they immediately follow the header. However, from v1.1 onwards, the specification dictates using the ep_mem_offset` field to determine the start of the memory access array. The patches in this series address this by: 1. Updating the core `arm_ffa` firmware driver to correctly calculate the descriptor offset using `ep_mem_offset` rather than defaulting to `sizeof(struct ffa_mem_region)`. It also introduces bounds checking against `max_fragsize`. 2. Enhancing the pKVM hypervisor validation logic to no longer strictly enforce that the descriptor strictly follows the header, aligning it with the driver behavior and the FF-A specification, while also ensuring the offset falls within the mailbox buffer bounds. While addressing these bugs, Sashiko uncovered other issues that were fixed in the same series. All the patches aside from the first one in optee are urgent fixes as they either impact the hypervisor security or kernel stability. Changelog ######### v8->v9: - addressed Sashiko double ffa_rx_release in "KVM: arm64: Fix bounds checking in do_ffa_mem_reclaim()" v7->v8: - dropped the patch "optee: ffa: Add NULL check in optee_ffa_lend_protmem" from the series as it was queued by Jens - rephrased the commit message for "KVM: arm64: Ensure FFA ranges are page aligned" - introduced a helper macro to get the size of the ffa memory region based on the used version. v6->v7: - taking the patches from Mostafa and sending a new version with the collected tags - Added overflow checks when doing `ep_offset + emad_size` in the arm ff-a driver - Move the length check before the ffa_mem_reclaim - fix compatibility break with ff-a version 1.0 reported by Sashiko - add one more patch to fix an issue with the FFA_VERSION call that can lead to leaking pKVM stack un-initialized data to a host when -ftrivial-auto-var-init=zero is not used. v5->v6: - Add fixes tag - Small clean up make variable declaration reverse christmas tree. v4->v5: - Collect Sudeep Rbs - Add extra patch to check base address alignment. - Remove WARN_ONs in KVM code - Use ffa_emad_size_get() instead of hardcoded size in KVM code. v3 -> v4: - Address review comments and fix Sashiko bugs v2 -> v3: - Fixed typo in nvhe/ffa.c (missing sizeof) v1 -> v2: - For pKVM, removed the strict placement enforcement for `ep_mem_offset` as it is not compliant with the spec, and avoids making assumptions about the driver's memory layout.

[PATCH 0/3] tee: add MbedTEE driver

by Xing Loong

This series adds a Linux TEE driver for MbedTEE, a Trusted Execution Environment for embedded systems (https://github.com/mbedtee). Two RPC transports are provided for systems where platform firmware or board configuration has already established the REE/TEE separation before Linux boots: - ARM/ARM64: SMC calls and GIC SPI notifications (TrustZone) - RISC-V: shared-memory ring buffers and IMSIC MSI notifications The driver implements the TEE subsystem interface (tee_driver_ops) and provides GlobalPlatform TEE Client API support, dynamic shared memory registration, and tee-supplicant support for REE filesystem and RPMB operations. The series is structured as follows: [1/3] dt-bindings: vendor-prefixes: add mbedtee [2/3] dt-bindings: firmware: add mbedtee,rpc binding [3/3] tee: add MbedTEE driver Xing Loong (3): dt-bindings: vendor-prefixes: add mbedtee dt-bindings: firmware: add mbedtee,rpc binding tee: add MbedTEE driver .../bindings/firmware/mbedtee,rpc.yaml | 221 +++++++ .../devicetree/bindings/vendor-prefixes.yaml | 2 + Documentation/tee/index.rst | 1 + Documentation/tee/mbedtee.rst | 155 +++++ MAINTAINERS | 9 + drivers/tee/Kconfig | 3 +- drivers/tee/Makefile | 1 + drivers/tee/mbedtee/Kconfig | 20 + drivers/tee/mbedtee/Makefile | 11 + drivers/tee/mbedtee/core.c | 236 +++++++ drivers/tee/mbedtee/mbedtee_drv.h | 269 ++++++++ drivers/tee/mbedtee/mbedtee_msg.h | 219 +++++++ drivers/tee/mbedtee/rpc_callee.c | 609 ++++++++++++++++++ drivers/tee/mbedtee/rpc_callee_arm.c | 91 +++ drivers/tee/mbedtee/rpc_callee_riscv.c | 203 ++++++ drivers/tee/mbedtee/rpc_caller.c | 539 ++++++++++++++++ drivers/tee/mbedtee/rpc_caller_arm.c | 66 ++ drivers/tee/mbedtee/rpc_caller_riscv.c | 192 ++++++ drivers/tee/mbedtee/shm_pool.c | 105 +++ drivers/tee/mbedtee/shm_pool.h | 15 + drivers/tee/mbedtee/supp.c | 310 +++++++++ include/uapi/linux/tee.h | 1 + 22 files changed, 3277 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) create mode 100644 Documentation/devicetree/bindings/firmware/mbedtee,rpc.yaml create mode 100644 Documentation/tee/mbedtee.rst create mode 100644 drivers/tee/mbedtee/Kconfig create mode 100644 drivers/tee/mbedtee/Makefile create mode 100644 drivers/tee/mbedtee/core.c create mode 100644 drivers/tee/mbedtee/mbedtee_drv.h create mode 100644 drivers/tee/mbedtee/mbedtee_msg.h create mode 100644 drivers/tee/mbedtee/rpc_callee.c create mode 100644 drivers/tee/mbedtee/rpc_callee_arm.c create mode 100644 drivers/tee/mbedtee/rpc_callee_riscv.c create mode 100644 drivers/tee/mbedtee/rpc_caller.c create mode 100644 drivers/tee/mbedtee/rpc_caller_arm.c create mode 100644 drivers/tee/mbedtee/rpc_caller_riscv.c create mode 100644 drivers/tee/mbedtee/shm_pool.c create mode 100644 drivers/tee/mbedtee/shm_pool.h create mode 100644 drivers/tee/mbedtee/supp.c base-commit: 03e2778d1f11de9260543f969e9e888a1c2bf830 -- 2.43.0

[PATCH v8 00/14] firmware: qcom: Add OP-TEE PAS service support

by Sumit Garg

From: Sumit Garg <sumit.garg(a)oss.qualcomm.com> Qcom platforms has the legacy of using non-standard SCM calls splintered over the various kernel drivers. These SCM calls aren't compliant with the standard SMC calling conventions which is a prerequisite to enable migration to the FF-A specifications from Arm. OP-TEE as an alternative trusted OS to Qualcomm TEE (QTEE) can't support these non-standard SCM calls. And even for newer architectures using S-EL2 with Hafnium support, QTEE won't be able to support SCM calls either with FF-A requirements coming in. And with both OP-TEE and QTEE drivers well integrated in the TEE subsystem, it makes further sense to reuse the TEE bus client drivers infrastructure. The added benefit of TEE bus infrastructure is that there is support for discoverable/enumerable services. With that client drivers don't have to manually invoke a special SCM call to know the service status. So enable the generic Peripheral Authentication Service (PAS) provided by the firmware. It acts as the common layer with different TZ backends plugged in whether it's an SCM implementation or a proper TEE bus based PAS service implementation. The TEE PAS service ABI is designed to be extensible with additional API as PTA_QCOM_PAS_CAPABILITIES. This allows to accommodate any future extensions of the PAS service needed while still maintaining backwards compatibility. Currently OP-TEE support is being added to provide the backend PAS service implementation which can be found as part of this PR [1]. This implementation has been tested on Kodiak/RB3Gen2 and lemans EVK boards. In addition to that WIN/IPQ targets tested OP-TEE with this service too. Surely the backwards compatibility is maintained and tested for SCM backend. Note that kernel PAS service support while running in EL2 is at parity among OP-TEE vs QTEE. Especially the media (venus/iris) support depends on proper IOMMU support being worked out on the PAS client end. Patch summary: - Patch #1: adds generic PAS service. - Patch #2: migrates SCM backend to generic PAS service. - Patch #3: adds TEE/OP-TEE backend for generic PAS service. - Patch #4-#12: migrates all client drivers to generic PAS service. - Patch #13: drops legacy PAS SCM exported APIs. The patch-set is based on qcom tree tip [2] and can be found in git tree here [3]. Merge strategy: It is expected due to APIs dependency, the entire patch-set to go via the Qcom tree. All other subsystem maintainers, it will be great if I can get acks for the corresponding subsystem patches.

Specific context reasoning which Shashiko ignores: - ABI contract between Linux and TZ - No support for multiple concurrent backends - The TZ backend doesn’t detach during the entire boot cycle Changes in v7: - Rebased to qcom tree (for-next branch) tip. - Merged patch #5 and #7 due to build dependency. - Disabled modem for kodiak EL2 as it isn't tested yet. - Fix an issue found out by sashiko-bot for patch #4. Changes in v6: - Rebased to v7.1-rc4 tag. - Patch #14: fixed ret error print. - Add Kconfig descriptions for PAS symbols such that they are visible in menuconfig to update. Changes in v5: - Incorporated misc. comments from Mukesh. - Split up patch #11 into 2 to add an independent commit for passing proper PAS ID to set_remote_state API. - Picked up tags. Changes in v4: - Incorporate misc. comments on patch #4. - Picked up an ack for patch #10. - Clarify in cover letter about state of media support. Changes in v3: - Incorporated some style and misc. comments for patch #2, #3 and #4. - Add QCOM_PAS Kconfig dependency for various subsystems. - Switch from pseudo TA to proper TA invoke commands. Changes in v2: - Fixed kernel doc warnings. - Polish commit message and comments for patch #2. - Pass proper PAS ID in set_remote_state API for media firmware drivers. - Added Maintainer entry and dropped MODULE_AUTHOR.

[PATCH v8 0/6] arm_ffa, KVM: Fix FF-A emad offset calculations

by Sebastian Ene

Hi all, This series fixes the Endpoint Memory Access Descriptor (EMAD) offset calculations and adds the necessary bounds checks for both the core FF-A driver and the pKVM hypervisor. Prior to FF-A version 1.1, the memory region header didn't specify an explicit offset for the EMADs, leading to the assumption that they immediately follow the header. However, from v1.1 onwards, the specification dictates using the ep_mem_offset` field to determine the start of the memory access array. The patches in this series address this by: 1. Updating the core `arm_ffa` firmware driver to correctly calculate the descriptor offset using `ep_mem_offset` rather than defaulting to `sizeof(struct ffa_mem_region)`. It also introduces bounds checking against `max_fragsize`. 2. Enhancing the pKVM hypervisor validation logic to no longer strictly enforce that the descriptor strictly follows the header, aligning it with the driver behavior and the FF-A specification, while also ensuring the offset falls within the mailbox buffer bounds. While addressing these bugs, Sashiko uncovered other issues that were fixed in the same series. All the patches aside from the first one in optee are urgent fixes as they either impact the hypervisor security or kernel stability. Changelog ######### v7->v8: - dropped the patch "optee: ffa: Add NULL check in optee_ffa_lend_protmem" from the series as it was queued by Jens - rephrased the commit message for "KVM: arm64: Ensure FFA ranges are page aligned" - introduced a helper macro to get the size of the ffa memory region based on the used version. v6->v7: - taking the patches from Mostafa and sending a new version with the collected tags - Added overflow checks when doing `ep_offset + emad_size` in the arm ff-a driver - Move the length check before the ffa_mem_reclaim - fix compatibility break with ff-a version 1.0 reported by Sashiko - add one more patch to fix an issue with the FFA_VERSION call that can lead to leaking pKVM stack un-initialized data to a host when -ftrivial-auto-var-init=zero is not used. v5->v6: - Add fixes tag - Small clean up make variable declaration reverse christmas tree. v4->v5: - Collect Sudeep Rbs - Add extra patch to check base address alignment. - Remove WARN_ONs in KVM code - Use ffa_emad_size_get() instead of hardcoded size in KVM code. v3 -> v4: - Address review comments and fix Sashiko bugs v2 -> v3: - Fixed typo in nvhe/ffa.c (missing sizeof) v1 -> v2: - For pKVM, removed the strict placement enforcement for `ep_mem_offset` as it is not compliant with the spec, and avoids making assumptions about the driver's memory layout.
