[RFC PATCH] hw/arm/virt: use sbsa-ec for reboot and poweroff in secure mode

by Maxim Uvarov

If we're emulating EL3 then the EL3 guest firmware is responsible for providing the PSCI ABI, including reboot, core power down, etc. sbsa-ref machine has an embedded controller to do reboot, poweroff. Machine virt,secure=on can reuse this code to do reboot inside ATF. Signed-off-by: Maxim Uvarov <maxim.uvarov(a)linaro.org> --- Hello, This patch implements reboot for the secure machine inside ATF firmware. I.e. current qemu patch should be used with [1] ATF patch. It looks like that Embedded Controller qemu driver (sbsa-ec) can be common and widely used for other emulated machines. While if there are plans to extend sbsa-ec then we might find some other solution. So for the long term it looks like machine virt was used as an initial playground for secure firmware. While the original intent was a runner for kvm guests. Relation between kvm guest and firmware is not very clear now. If everyone agree it might be good solution to move secure firmware things from virt machine to bsa-ref and make this machine reference for secure boot, firmware updates etc. [1] https://github.com/muvarov/arm-trusted-firmware/commit/6d3339a0081f6f2b45d9… Best regards, Maxim. hw/arm/virt.c | 9 +++++++++ include/hw/arm/virt.h | 2 ++ 2 files changed, 11 insertions(+) diff --git a/hw/arm/virt.c b/hw/arm/virt.c index e465a988d6..6b77912f02 100644 --- a/hw/arm/virt.c +++ b/hw/arm/virt.c @@ -152,6 +152,7 @@ static const MemMapEntry base_memmap[] = { [VIRT_ACPI_GED] = { 0x09080000, ACPI_GED_EVT_SEL_LEN }, [VIRT_NVDIMM_ACPI] = { 0x09090000, NVDIMM_ACPI_IO_LEN}, [VIRT_PVTIME] = { 0x090a0000, 0x00010000 }, + [VIRT_EC] = { 0x090c0000, 0x00001000 }, [VIRT_MMIO] = { 0x0a000000, 0x00000200 }, /* ...repeating for a total of NUM_VIRTIO_TRANSPORTS, each of that size */ [VIRT_PLATFORM_BUS] = { 0x0c000000, 0x02000000 }, @@ -1729,6 +1730,13 @@ static void virt_cpu_post_init(VirtMachineState *vms, int max_cpus, } } +static void init_ec_controller(VirtMachineState *vms) +{ + vms->ec = qdev_new("sbsa-ec"); + + sysbus_mmio_map(SYS_BUS_DEVICE(vms->ec), 0, vms->memmap[VIRT_EC].base); +} + static void machvirt_init(MachineState *machine) { VirtMachineState *vms = VIRT_MACHINE(machine); @@ -1797,6 +1805,7 @@ static void machvirt_init(MachineState *machine) */ if (vms->secure && firmware_loaded) { vms->psci_conduit = QEMU_PSCI_CONDUIT_DISABLED; + init_ec_controller(vms); } else if (vms->virt) { vms->psci_conduit = QEMU_PSCI_CONDUIT_SMC; } else { diff --git a/include/hw/arm/virt.h b/include/hw/arm/virt.h index aad6d69841..6f2ce4e4ff 100644 --- a/include/hw/arm/virt.h +++ b/include/hw/arm/virt.h @@ -85,6 +85,7 @@ enum { VIRT_ACPI_GED, VIRT_NVDIMM_ACPI, VIRT_PVTIME, + VIRT_EC, VIRT_LOWMEMMAP_LAST, }; @@ -163,6 +164,7 @@ struct VirtMachineState { DeviceState *gic; DeviceState *acpi_dev; Notifier powerdown_notifier; + DeviceState *ec; }; #define VIRT_ECAM_ID(high) (high ?

Re: [TF-A] Questions raised about Measured Boot + fTPM test case

by Ruchika Gupta

Hi, *For [1] - Would be good if the test infrastructure(the TPM TA) can compile in AARCH64. I thought I heard on the tf-a call that there already is a Microsoft FW TPM port for aarch64 already. Please let me know if I misunderstood.* You can check the implementation at https://github.com/microsoft/MSRSec This compiles for aarch64. I had a few queries for chips having physical TPM. Case 1. Should all entities doing the measurement (BL1, BL2) have the TPM driver to extend the measurements as they are done. This would be the most secure flow. Case 2. If BL1 and BL2 don't have the TPM driver as mentioned in Case 1 above, who would be responsible for extending the measurements for secure world entities. -- Should there be a TPM driver in Secure EL0/EL1 which does this ? -- Event log is also passed to the BL33. In case there is no TPM driver at all in the secure world - is it expected that BL33 should extend the measurements in PCR ?

Re: [TF-A] BL31 as bootloader

by rkohli2000 gmail

Hi Alexei, I'm able to eliminate the warning using the -j .text and see the image load and run ok. The issue I am seeing is that the bsp I am using expects my bot loader bl31.bin to power on the UART and do the low level init that makes PCIe controller accessible. I think at exit from bl31.bin I don't have this initialization. Can you point me the TFA code to enable LPUART and make PCIe controller accessible in imx8qm before handoff to BL33 ?

If you cannot set a breakpoint I would suggest to add a few assembler instructions in the start of your BL33 entry point to write any specific character, e.g. '!' to debug UART data port and branch to the next instruction in an infinite loop with "b .".

Re: [TF-A] BL31 as bootloader

by Alexei Fedorov

Hi Ravi As you can see in debugger that memory at 0x80020000 address is populated correctly, can you set a breakpoint at it to check if execuion reaches it? If you cannot set a breakpoint I would suggest to add a few assembler instructions in the start of your BL33 entry point to write any specific character, e.g. '!' to debug UART data port and branch to the next instruction in an infinite loop with "b .". Seeing ! char on debug console would prove that control to BL33 image has been passed. Regards.

Re: [TF-A] Questions raised about Measured Boot + fTPM test case

by Alexei Fedorov

Hi Javer, Please see my comments below. [3] Provide platform hooks in tpm_record_measurement function for a platform to actually extend those measurements to a physical TPM right when they are measured. These hooks can be implemented in the next phase #2 of Measured Boot implementation. [4] On platforms that use FCONF, the FW_CONFIG and TB_FW_CONFIG should also be measured since they are images being loaded as well. See arm_bl1_setup.c where these images are loaded but not measured(unless I’m missing something). FW_CONFIG and TB_FW_CONFIG images are loaded by BL1 but not BL2. BL1 calculates BL2 hash and passes the measurement to BL2 in TB_FW_CONFIG. It can also pass FW_CONFIG hash in the same DTB, but it is not clear how own TB_FW_CONFIG hash can be passed in itself. Stuart, do you have opinion on that? Regards.

With regards to the (f)TPM service and as discussed during the last TF-A Tech Forum call, we will discuss internally the need of a new implementation, probably after the next TF-A release, and we will schedule the work (in case we decide to go ahead with it) for the upcoming months. We will announce any decision we make through the mailing list and/or on future TF-A Tech Forum calls . Regarding to changes to TF-A to include extra functionality/APIs/hooks, I guess my colleague Alexei can provide further details about the next features planned for Measured Boot, if any. To finish, I would just like to clarify one of the questions raised on your email: [1] Would be good if the test infrastructure(the TPM TA) can compile in AARCH64. I thought I heard on the tf-a call that there already is a Microsoft FW TPM port for aarch64 already. Please let me know if I misunderstood. * Microsoft has a reference implementation of the TPM 2.0 specification. That implementation is in the form of an architecture agnostic library that implements the specification. Along with the library, there are a couple of example applications for different platforms built around the former, one of them being the fTPM we used for testing. That application was written for AARCH32 and seemed to be outdated (I don't know if it was abandoned, actually), so we updated it and added support for Measured Boot to it.

Re: [TF-A] BL31 as bootloader

by rkohli2000 gmail

Hi Manish, I have been able to copy the test app (BL33) to entry point address 0x80020000. I confirmed from the Debugger that RAM address 0x80020000 is populated. I had to modify imx-atf makefile target to use the "-data" option as follows: flash_test_8: $(MKIMG) mx8qm-ahab-container.img scfw_tcm.bin bl31.bin App.bin imx8qm-mek-ca53.dtb ./$(MKIMG) -soc QM -rev B0 -append mx8qm-ahab-container.img -c -scfw scfw_tcm.bin -ap bl31.bin a53 0x80000000 -data App.bin 0x80020000 -data imx8qm-mek-ca53.dtb 0x83000000 -out flash.bin The -data option appears to copy the image at the 0x80020000 address. Now, I think we should be able to handoff since PC (program counter) is set : bl33_image_ep_info.pc = plat_get_ns_image_entrypoint(); I don't see any serial console output using an image that works when using u-boot. I am not using u-boot for certification reasons. Is there some way I can confirm that the handoff is happening from bl31.bin to the App.bin ? At which BL31 function or module does the handoff occur ? I don't see my HW breakpoint trigger at location location 0x80020000.
