Re: [TF-M] Will TFM crypto service suppot national encryption algorithm in the future?

by Shebu Varghese Kuriakose

Hi Matt, TF-M plans to continue using Mbedcrypto in the crypto service. Mbed Crypto implements the PSA Crypto APIs and is also now part of trustedfirmware.org community project alongside TF-M. However, it is possible with some effort for a platform using TF-M to use another crypto library in the TF-M crypto service. Of course the library will need to support PSA Crypto APIs to be PSA compliant. There is support for ARIA, Camellia in Mbed TLS. There has already been a PR for SM4 support sometime back - https://github.com/ARMmbed/mbedtls/pull/1165. SM2/SM3 algorithm support can be contributed to MbedTLS project (Mbed Crypto is now merged to Mbed TLS project). The maintainers will have to review and integrate the contribution as their bandwidth permits while finding time to review several contributions that the project is receiving. I am adding psa-crypto mailing list which is used for Mbedcrypto/PSA Crypto discussions.

Hi All TFM experts, TFM crypto service is based on mbedcrypto and there is no national encryption algorithm support in current mbedcrypto implementation.

Re: [TF-M] [TF-A] Project Maintenance Proposal for tf.org Projects

by Sandrine Bailleux

Hi all, Thanks to all who have commented on this proposal so far. I've edited the original document to try and incorporate all feedback gathered so far (through the TSC meeting, this email thread and the TF-A tech call). Please have another look and flag anything I might have missed: https://developer.trustedfirmware.org/w/collaboration/project-maintenance-p… The major changes are: == Removed concept of self-review == This is proving too controversial, several people do not want to allow self-review. Roles of maintainer and code owner are still cumulative but cannot be both exercised for the same patch. The exact method of dealing with review bottleneck is still to be decided. In addition to the current proposal of increasing the maintainers pool, the most popular alternatives mentioned so far are: - Set a minimum wait time for feedback before a patch can be merged without any further delay. - Mandate distinct reviewers for a patch. == Enhanced the section "Patch contribution Guidelines" == Mentioned that patches should be small, on-topic, with comprehensive commit messages. == Added a note about how to deal with disagreement == If reviewers cannot find a common ground, the proposal is to call out a 3rd-party maintainer. == Removed "out-of-date" platform state == Squashed it into "limited support" to reduce the number of states. == Removed "orphan" state from platform support life cycle == This concept is orthogonal to the level of functionality. Added a note in the "Code Owner" section instead. == Per-project guidelines as a complementary document == Added a list of things that it would typically cover. == Added requirement on fully supported platforms to document the features they support == == Added todo mentioning that the proposal might cover branching strategies in the future == The full diff may be seen here: https://developer.trustedfirmware.org/phriction/diff/73/?l=4&r=5 This proposal is still open for discussion at this stage and further feedback is most welcome!

Re: [TF-M] Multi-threaded single-scheduler model proposal

by Shreve, Erik

I see the discussion of today's tech forum agenda has begun ahead of time. :) Individual public key operations can take ms even when accelerated with HW. Further, the HW accelerators operate as math coprocessors with a series of math operations stitched together by SW. No doubt existing models in TF-M have the benefit of simplicity for the secure code analysis. However, their simplicity complicates the scheduling of the non-trusted code. The qualifier in this statement "No impact to time deterministic execution on the NS side unless two threads call secure services" is the issue. I believe we need a middle ground to drive additional adoption. Erik Shreve, PSEM Software Security Engineer & Architect (CMCU Platform Development) From: TF-M [mailto:tf-m-bounces@lists.trustedfirmware.org] On Behalf Of DeMars, Alan via TF-M Sent: Thursday, April 02, 2020 9:47 AM To: Reinhard Keil; tf-m(a)lists.trustedfirmware.org Cc: nd Subject: [EXTERNAL] Re: [TF-M] Multi-threaded single-scheduler model proposal I used crypto accelerator as a hypothetical example. In a real world use case we are faced with, the process kicked off by the secure service may take a long time (ie several ms). It is not acceptable to be parked in wfe during that time.

No lower priority NS threads can run while waiting for the secure interrupt. Only higher priority threads that are initiated by a NS interrupt can run." You are correct, scheduling of lower priority NS threads would be not possible. This is definitely a shortcoming of the solution. May I ask: how long does a hardware crypto operation take? What time could be used for low priority NS thread execution? Reinhard

Re: [TF-M] Using tfm_plat_get_huk_derived_key(), TFM key-storage?

by Jamie Fox

Hi Andrej, Key derivation should be deterministic - given the same input parameters, tfm_plat_get_huk_derived_key() should always derive the same key. Each platform needs to implement tfm_plat_get_huk_derived_key() to use a key derivation function (KDF) to derive keys from the hardware unique key (HUK) that is kept in some one time programmable (OTP) memory on the chip. Depending on the platform, the key derivation might be done with a crypto accelerator, or it might be done with a software implementation of a KDF if no accelerator is available. You can use the Musca-B1 implementation as an example (https://git.trustedfirmware.org/trusted-firmware-m.git/tree/platform/ext/ta…), which uses CryptoCell-312 to derive keys from the HUK. Other Arm platforms only have dummy implementations of this function. In general, users of this API will keep their derived keys in volatile memory and redo the key derivation on each boot, as the cost of key derivation is low. Kind regards, Jamie From: TF-M <tf-m-bounces(a)lists.trustedfirmware.org> On Behalf Of Andrej Butok via TF-M Sent: 09 April 2020 11:49 To: tf-m(a)lists.trustedfirmware.org Subject: [TF-M] Using tfm_plat_get_huk_derived_key(), TFM key-storage? Hello, Could you clarify: 1) Must the tfm_plat_get_huk_derived_key() function to return the same key per each call (as it's done now), or it may return randomized key (per each call) derived from HUK? 2) If tfm_plat_get_huk_derived_key() may return a different key per call, the generated key must be stored in persistent storage. Is this key persistent storage already implemented (using the default parameters) for example in ITS, or the key-storage must be implemented additionally?

Hi Reinhard, Thanks for your feedback, and let's see if others would give more comments. Will broadcast the implementation after it is created. Before that we need to know if some users (especially those developing secure partitions under library model) got comments on this. Also, I think this update could help the first point in your list. /Ken From: TF-M <tf-m-bounces(a)lists.trustedfirmware.org> On Behalf Of Reinhard Keil via TF-M Sent: Thursday, April 9, 2020 2:57 PM To: tf-m(a)lists.trustedfirmware.org Cc: nd <nd(a)arm.com> Subject: [TF-M] [RFC] The veneer usage under library model (Ken Liu) Ken, This is the answer to "What do you think about this update?" When external TF-M APIs do not change, there should be no user impact. As the veneer is just an internal implementation of parameter passing, changing the veneer implementation would be just fine.

Hi Erik, Could you share us more design details such as the slides you presented in Tech Forum, the progress and so on? We want to see more details (the more the better I think) and then we could discuss more precisely. Also, if this design has been prototyped, try to collect some data would be much helpful. Thanks. /Ken From: TF-M <tf-m-bounces(a)lists.trustedfirmware.org> On Behalf Of Reinhard Keil via TF-M Sent: Thursday, April 9, 2020 2:51 PM To: Shreve, Erik <e-shreve(a)ti.com>; DeMars, Alan <ademars(a)ti.com> Cc: nd <nd(a)arm.com>; tf-m(a)lists.trustedfirmware.org Subject: Re: [TF-M] Multi-threaded single-scheduler model proposal Erik, I believe we should measure timing behaviour and document it first before come to conclusions. Personally I have not reviewed the IPC mode. I was just reviewing the SFN (aka Library mode) and measured the current implementation (actually it was a RC3+patches version). My result and assessment is here https://lists.trustedfirmware.org/pipermail/tf-m/2020-March/000805.html - it has as expected for v1 "room for improvement". Did you do similar tests with the IPC model already? Do you have timing measurements of the HW crypto accelerator operations? From the STM32L5 data sheet we are getting 410 cycles as the maximum time of an AES 256-byte key decrypt operation (most operations seems to take less than 100 cycles). The fact that crypto is time consuming is not new for system designers that use a single core processor. As said the solution in today's applications is: * Crypto is in "Normal" priority * Time critical execution is "High" priority - this threads can preempt execution of "Normal" priority threads. Have a happy Easter time and stay healty!

Didn't mean to send any other impression. Also, appreciate your feedback on the proposal. Elegance is in the eye of the beholder, but that said I think that the IPC model does have an elegance to it. However, its elegance imposes limitations that complicate the entirety of _some_ systems - leading to less overall elegance in _those_ systems. The IPC model isn't bad or inappropriate, it's a great solution. It just doesn't cover everything (what could?) Further, if a middle ground is needed but there exists no 'elegant' solution then a solution a bit less than elegant may be required. Also, no debate that the IPC model is not much different from when users are running mbedTLS only in a dedicated thread, but that is not how we see crypto used in our ecosystem. There are many industrial and automotive use cases where determinism is required. Further, both of these markets are seeing an uptick in security interest and even regulation pressure. And these markets don't like change. Change implies opening products back up to costly verification and validation activities and risk. I can't share particulars on this email list, but I can say that any system supporting multiple concurrent connections wherein different connections have different priority and at least some of those have deterministic response requirements will have difficulty adopting the IPC model. (Of course there are other ways to solve this such as increased clock rate or duplicated HW accelerators, but these impact die cost and can negatively impact power performance.) Keep in mind that not all connections are TLS connections over the internet where a few milliseconds would be noise. But based on your statement "Maybe there are other solutions that extending the RTOS kernel," I'm wondering if I've not communicated the idea well enough. The RTOS kernels would only be extended by the calling of tz_context APIs during task switching. This is something that is already occurring in the IPC model. (You mention that using the tz_context APIs is "tricky," can you elaborate more on this?) There is then a TF-M _to_ RTOS layer allowing secured code to signal semaphore and mutex usage to the RTOS. The RTOS kernel itself has no changes for this layer. Thus, I see the impact to the RTOS kernels as minimal. And since the RTOS retains the same control over when tasks run, there is minimal (if any) impact to application code. I think one of your concerns is adoption of TF-M and that it may be negatively impacted if difficult integration with each RTOS is required. Yes? If so, I am sharing your concern about adoption, but I think the bigger hindrance is not the RTOS integration but application level integration. After all there are far fewer RTOSes than applications in the world. Likely our different experiences are leading us to different conclusions here despite a shared concern. But providing a few well selected options can maximize adoption for effort. At the end of the Tech Forum meeting someone suggested a model like this could replace (or upgrade) the Library model. Regarding HW run times, the specifics really are in cycle counts if we want to compare them with the cost of task switching. Many ECC (and certainly RSA/DSA/DH) math operations take much longer (millions of cycles) than the time to switch a task. Finally, regarding minimal viable product (MVP), I understand the purpose of an MVP to either be a platform to gain feedback toward a product launch or a minimum product that is useful to early adopters. Either way, it seems that with the release of TF-M 1.0 this has been achieved. So then the next steps are to incorporate feedback and grow the market of the product. Growing the market use of TF-M is what I seek to do with the proposal. Again, appreciate the discussion.

It's really great to see your engagement here. Let me summarize: TF-M should work with many different RTOSes as the various CSPs currently have preferences (Azure=ThreadX, AWS=FreeRTOS, etc.). To make it easy to work with this diverse eco-system we should aim for simplicity of TF-M/RTOS interaction. Also tz_context slows down overall thread switching and is tricky to use. I agree with you that we will need a middle ground. You say: "No impact to time deterministic execution on the NS side unless two threads call secure services" is the issue. However I cannot see today an elegant solution. My question is: what use-cases do you see where two different threads need to call secure services. Is in such use-cases timing a critical factor? Alan raised "In a real world use case we are faced with, the process kicked off by the secure service may take a long time (ie several ms)". This is correct, but makes it really sense to schedule CPU execution. HW accelerator math operations take some ~1usec; thread scheduling is not economic. IMHO: It is not different from today's implementation where i.e. mbedTLS is running in a thread. For time critical applications you would solve that problem with thread priorities where: * Crypto is in "Normal" priority * Time critical execution is "High" priority I believe we should focus first on a minimum viable product and then analyze the real-world problems that come with it. Maybe there are other solutions that extending the RTOS kernel. Have a good weekend.

Further, the HW accelerators operate as math coprocessors with a series of math operations stitched together by SW. No doubt existing models in TF-M have the benefit of simplicity for the secure code analysis. However, their simplicity complicates the scheduling of the non-trusted code. The qualifier in this statement "No impact to time deterministic execution on the NS side unless two threads call secure services" is the issue. I believe we need a middle ground to drive additional adoption.

No lower priority NS threads can run while waiting for the secure interrupt. Only higher priority threads that are initiated by a NS interrupt can run." You are correct, scheduling of lower priority NS threads would be not possible. This is definitely a shortcoming of the solution. May I ask: how long does a hardware crypto operation take? What time could be used for low priority NS thread execution? Reinhard

[RFC] The veneer usage under library model (Ken Liu)

by Reinhard Keil

Ken, This is the answer to "What do you think about this update?" When external TF-M APIs do not change, there should be no user impact. As the veneer is just an internal implementation of parameter passing, changing the veneer implementation would be just fine. I made some suggestions here https://lists.trustedfirmware.org/pipermail/tf-m/2020-March/000805.html I would be happy to review your implementation in case that you have doubts. Best regards Reinhard

[RFC] The veneer usage under library model

by Ken Liu

Hi, There are veneer prototypes in 'tfm_veneers.h', with different function name but the same parameters. These veneers are for the library model. I think these veneers can be combined into one and use a parameter 'type' to dispatch to the actual functions. What do you think about this update? Would this change impact your development much? Please provide your comments. Thanks. /Ken

But that is why I suggested that the project's feature list be versioned. The platform's supported feature list document would reference the version of the project feature list used. Platform maintainers then don' t have to continuously update the document. But it will be clear how long it has been since they did update and thus what information may be missing. Versioning the feature list document is also why I mentioned that the project version number may want to adopt a version number scheme where feature changes are represented by a certain part of the version number. For example Semantic Versioning 2.0.0: https://semver.org/. Hope that clarifies the intent? For implementation of this I'm imagining each project could create a supported_feature_list.rst file and each platform would copy that file into their platform doc folder and fill it in. I'm not saying that approach would be required at tf.org level, just sharing to further illustrate. > > That said, perhaps the implementation details for a project would not warrant such a document per platform? My primary concern around this is misuse/misconfiguration. If a platform doesn't support a feature or configuration it may not be obvious to a user unless an error is generated at build or run-time. OK, I think I get the idea now, thanks for the explanations. This looks reasonable to me. The idea of keeping a project's feature list being mirrored and filled in per platform sounds like something we would want to enforce at the tf.org level IMO. At the same time, this could also be handled at the build system level as you pointed out, or more precisely by the configuration manager. I am thinking about the Linux kernel, where support for a particular feature is handled (and documented) through the KConfig system. This might be a more scalable approach. And it doesn't prevent us from also auto-generating some feature list out of the Kconfig files for making this information more accessible to users. > My secondary concern is being able to consistently track tickets/bugs with features. Thus, I'm recommending that the features on that list be used with the ticket/issue system by feature name. This would allow users to find all bugs for Feature X on Platform Y in Project Z. > Related to that, when I mentioned "tags." I wasn't thinking of Git tags, but "labels" in the ticket/issue tracking system(s). Different systems work differently for labeling/categorizing issues, but the goal is to provide a consistent way (per project) to find issues related to a feature on a platform. > > If requiring a feature list it is too much at the tf.org level then I'll be satisfied to push for that kind of documentation in the projects or platforms I'm involved in if/as appropriate. Yes, good point, I think it would be desirable to be able to tie tickets to some specific platform/feature/version. And I think it makes sense to unify this across tf.org projects. > Regarding the other conversational tidbits: > > Thanks for pointing out that the original proposal does say "builds all configurations supported by this platform" under "Fully Supported." I can see the intention here now. Substituting "features" for "configurations" would broaden the meaning a bit.

Patches to remove fixed NS region numbers

by Jamie Fox

Hi all, I am proposing some patches to move away from using fixed NS region numbers defined by TF-M core, to having platform-defined SAU region numbering. The motivation for the change is to give platforms more flexibility when configuring the isolation hardware, and in particular, to make it possible to use tools like CMSIS-Zone to generate the isolation hardware configuration. There are a couple of patches: https://review.trustedfirmware.org/c/trusted-firmware-m/+/3484 -- Removes the memory permission check API from TF-M, which was the only user of the fixed region numbers. This API is no longer required because the SPM does all necessary memory permission checks before control reaches the secure partition. The patch removes uses of this API from the Attestation service, the platform service and the tests. https://review.trustedfirmware.org/c/trusted-firmware-m/+/3485 -- Removes the fixed region numbers and refactors all platforms to no longer use them. Reviews appreciated. Kind regards, Jamie
