Hello tf-rmm group, I think i found several vulnerabilities in tf-rmm code, where should i report it. I don't see ways to report vulnerabilities in your github repositories security page or docs. After the vulnerability is confirmed, can you assign a CVE-ID for it? -- Best Regards Haiwang Wang

DA developer branches

by Soby Mathew

Hi Everyone, Developer branches for TF-RMM and the kernel, which demonstrate the device assignment setup flow is available. To reproduce this flow on FVP, there is a Shrinkwrap<https://shrinkwrap.docs.arm.com/en/latest/userguide/configstore/cca-3world.…> overlay. Instructions for using it can be found here : https://git.trustedfirmware.org/plugins/gitiles/TF-RMM/tf-rmm.git/+/refs/he… The specific branches for the respective components are: TF-RMM: https://git.trustedfirmware.org/plugins/gitiles/TF-RMM/tf-rmm.git/+/refs/he… Linux: https://gitlab.arm.com/linux-arm/linux-cca/-/tree/cca-1.1/da/proto/rmm-1.1-… kvmtool: https://gitlab.arm.com/linux-arm/kvmtool-cca/-/tree/cca-1.1/da/proto/rmm-1.… TF-A: Changes are merged in master , so tip of master should be good (https://git.trustedfirmware.org/plugins/gitiles/TF-A/trusted-firmware-a/+/r…) This release is based on the RMM v1.1 Alpha 12 specification. It includes setting up a secure SPDM session for communication with DSM, TDISP, and IDE, including the RMM-EL3 interface for RP programming. This is entirely new development and has undergone limited internal review. As such, we are aware that the code lacks comprehensive checks and hardening. Additionally, Stage 2 MMU changes for device mappings the Stage 2 SMMU driver are not tested/supported. As a result, Realms cannot access device memory or support device DMA to Realm memory. Furthermore, the TDISP_En flag setting in DVSEC and other DVSEC programming have some gaps. This functionality is still under active development, and the programming and testing is limited to capabilities of the FVP. As development progresses, we will continue to update the branches accordingly. Any changes in user instructions will be reflected in the accompanying documentation. Best Regards Soby Mathew

Upcoming merge notification for RMM EL0 app support

by Soby Mathew

Hi Everyone As discussed in TF-A Tech Forum in January, RMM is introducing EL0 app support which is deprivileging parts of RMM to run at EL0. This is done mainly for security but it also enables other capabilities as discussed in the presentation : https://github.com/TF-RMM/tf-rmm/wiki/TFA-Tech-Forum-Presentations The patch stack can be accessed here : https://review.trustedfirmware.org/c/TF-RMM/tf-rmm/+/36886/1 . This is complex functionality touching many parts of RMM. The merge is likely to affect outstanding patches as they would have merge conflict on rebase. We have identified further enhancements and hardening which can be done to improve the security and performance of the EL0 app framework . These will be taken up after the merge. We are hoping to merge this patch stack early next week so that any issues identified can be fixed up prior to TF-A v2.13 release planned for next month. The design document is still undergoing review and will be progressed after the merge of functionality. Best Regards Soby Mathew

Addition of mbedTLS as a submodule dependency to TF-A-Tests

by Soby Mathew

Hi Everyone, In order to facilitate development for Device Assignment tests for RME-DA, we have added MbedTLS repo as a submodule dependency to tf-a-tests. The merge commit can be found here : https://review.trustedfirmware.org/plugins/gitiles/TF-A/tf-a-tests/+/3e72cd… The patch is done in such a way that existing build of TF-A-Tests or Test run is not affected due to the additional dependency. Only tests which depend on MbedTLS will be affected in that they will either be skipped or fail at runtime due to the missing dependency. Also, the change allows to use the config `MBEDTLS_DIR` to point to a MbedTLS directory outside the tf-a-tests source tree. This aligns with the TF-A mechanism for MbedTLS dependancy in case the submodule mechanism is not preferred. We expect existing CI and testing infrastructure to be unaffected by this change. Please let us know if you have any comments. Best Regards Soby Mathew

Submodule update during build phase of the project

by Soby Mathew

Hi Everyone We are planning to change how TF-RMM clones and updates the submodule dependencies. The usual practice is to specify the `recursive` option to git clone of the project. This works well when the submodules themselves do not have dependencies. For some dependent repositories like libspdm, there are further dependencies like openssl, cmocka which are not used in the RMM context. Hence specifying the specifying the `recursive` option is not the ideal solution especially when RMM is deployed in Continuous integration solutions. The above issue was worked around in RMM by fetching libspdm within the build context but this was also not ideal as it kept the libspdm outside the git submodules framework and the git fetch was done every time the project was rebuilt. To solve this, we are proposing to move the management of the submodules into the build system and away from the user. Specifically, during configuration phase of the project, cmake will issue `git submodule update --init --depth 1`. This means that the user will not be responsible for syncing the submodules anymore and the build system will take of this. This also ties in with the patching method of the build system as a particular SHA can be ensured before the patch is applied. The patch can be found here : https://review.trustedfirmware.org/c/TF-RMM/tf-rmm/+/33512 Any rebase of the project which updates the submodules will now be transparently applied without the user having to update the submodules manually. We think that we will have more dependent submodules for TF-RMM in the future and it is better to script this within the build system. This change should not break any of the existing CI systems as it is backward compatible, but it may become a little inefficient if the `recursive` option is specified as there will be unnecessary git repositories fetched. Please let us know if any comments. Best Regards Soby Mathew

problem about tf-rmm latest version

by 王海旺

hello tf-rmm group, Recently I'm learning ARM CCA.But I have trouble running the latest version TF-RMM.It failed at runtime/ core/ init.c/ in func rmm_arch_init.When try to do write_hcrx_el2 action it paniced.So it looks like the FVP doesn't have the hcrx_el2 register.I'm using the FVP_Base_RevC-2xAEMvA_11.27_19. It's the latest version in the arm's offical website.The tf-rmm-v0.5.0 works fine.So I'm wondering how do you test latest version TF-RMM.It would be appreciated if you could reply. Best, Wang.

Re: Does the confidential virtual machine support hot-plug for CPU, memory, and devices？

Hi, Please have a look at virtio-mem which provides memory hotplug for VMs. It is available in Linux, QEMU, cloud-hypervisor and libvirt: https://libvirt.org/kbase/memorydevices.html#virtio-mem-model Another reason to use virtio-mem rather than ACPI memory hotplug is to keep complexity out of ACPI tables, in order to simplify remote attestation which requires measuring or verifying the firmware tables. For example running QEMU with the following allows to hotplug 4G of memory to the VM: -m 512M,maxmem=1T -object memory-backend-ram,id=mem0,size=4G -device virtio-mem-pci,id=vm0,memdev=mem0,node=0 Then at runtime QEMU monitor can plug and unplug memory: (qemu) qom-get vm0 size (qemu) qom-set vm0 requested-size 1G (qemu) qom-set vm0 requested-size 0 This works for a Realm VM, with a small change to the Linux guest: https://jpbrucker.net/git/linux/commit/?h=cca/v4-hotplug&id=6b8768385fa464a… (I'm not sure it's correct yet but may be worth adding to the initial guest support.) The host adds memory to the guest with RMI_GRANULE_DELEGATE+RMI_DATA_CREATE_UNKNOWN, and removes it with RMI_DATA_DESTROY+RMI_GRANULE_UNDELEGATE which ensures that the pages are wiped before being returned to the host. Virtual device hotplug works out of the box for a Realm VM. The VM needs to have root ports allowing hotplug (see https://www.libvirt.org/pci-hotplug.html#aarch64-architecture ), and the guest kernel must have PCIe hotplug enabled. For example this adds a root port in QEMU: -device pcie-root-port,chassis=1,id=pcie.1,bus=pcie.0 Then in the monitor add a virtio-net device: (qemu) netdev_add user,id=net1 (qemu) device_add virtio-net-pci,netdev=net1,bus=pcie.1,id=hp0 [ 300.003234] pcieport 0000:00:03.0: pciehp: Slot(0): Button press: will power on in 5 sec ... [ 300.798772] virtio-pci 0000:01:00.0: enabling device (0000 -> 0002) # lspci 01:00.0 Ethernet controller: Red Hat, Inc. Virtio 1.0 network device (rev 01) And remove it: (qemu) device_del hp0 The security model of hotplug is equivalent to regular PCI support in a Realm: the guest should only interact with devices whose driver has been hardened against untrusted hosts, and with devices authenticated via CMA-SPDM. Thanks, Jean

Does the confidential virtual machine support hot-plug for CPU, memory, and devices？

by wuweinan＠huawei.com

Cloud vendors hope that cloud servers have hot-plug capabilities for CPU, memory, and devices. In confidential virtual machine scenarios, the measurement values will change after hot-plug , and rmi_data_create needs to be called to dynamically update the device tree information. Please consult CCA's plan for the hot-plug capability , and under the security model of confidential virtual machines, should the hot-plug capability of confidential virtual machines be supported?

Measuring number of instructions for a workload in realm

by sina ab

Hi all, I am working with FVP (Base RevC AEM) and arm integration solution (https://gitlab.arm.com/arm-reference-solutions/arm-reference-solutions-docs…). I want to measure the overhead of a target ML workload between a realm VM and normal world VM. Both VMs are created by this command: nice -n -20 taskset -c 1 lkvm run --realm -c 1 -m 350 -k /root/VM_image/Image -i /root/VM_image/VM-fs.cpio --irqchip=gicv3 the target workload code and data is envisioned into the VM-fs.cpio. I also use GenericTrace to measure the number of instructions executed by core 1 (taskset -c 1 indicates that the VM process should be only given to core one). I use ToggleMTIPlugin to enable/disable tracing at particular points (at the beginning and end of the target workload inside the VM). What I am experiencing is that the numbers in normal world VM are very stable (271 millions) but, the numbers in the realm VM are very different between different runs of realm VM (from 314 to 463 and even 7671 millions!!!). I do all measurements in the same run of FVP in which I create a NW VM and run the target workload, then I destroy it and create a realm VM, run the target workload and destroy it while I repeat this steps several times and then terminates the FVP. I guess something in between the path from the realm to hypervisor makes the numbers unstable (either RMM or secure monitor). Have you ever seen such a problem and worked around measuring number of instructions for the realm workloads? Thanks, Sina

Firmware-A v2.10 release code freeze notification

by Olivier Deprez

Hi All, The next release of the Firmware-A bundle of projects tagged v2.10 has an expected code freeze date of Nov, 7th 2023. Refer to the Release Cadence section from TF-A documentation (https://git.trustedfirmware.org/TF-A/trusted-firmware-a.git/tree/docs/about…). Closing out the release takes around 6-10 working days after the code freeze. Preparations tasks for v2.10 release should start in coming month. We want to ensure that planned feature patches for the release are submitted in good time for the review process to conclude. As a kind recommendation and a matter of sharing CI resources, please launch CI jobs with care e.g.: -For simple platform, docs changes, or one liners, use Allow-CI+1 label (no need for a full Allow-CI+2 run). -For large patch stacks use Allow-CI+2 at top of the patch stack (and if required few individual Allow+CI+1 in the middle of the patch stack). -Carefully analyze results and fix the change if required, before launching new jobs on the same change. -If after issuing a Allow-CI+1 or Allow-CI+2 label a Build start notice is not added as a gerrit comment on the patch right away please be patient as under heavy load CI jobs can be queued and in extreme conditions it can be over an hour before the Build start notice is issued. Issuing another Allow-CI+1 or Allow-CI+2 label will just result in an additional job being queued. Thanks & Regards, Olivier.
