[RFC v2 00/24] Add Realm support to QEMU-VMM

[RFC v2 00/24] Add Realm support to QEMU-VMM

[Mathieu Poirier]

This patchset provides minimal functionality to start a Realm VM
from an Arm RME capable host using the following command line:

qemu-system-aarch64 \
 -M confidential-guest-support=rme0 -object rme-guest,id=rme0 \
 -cpu host -M virt -enable-kvm -M gic-version=3,its=on -nodefaults ..

It is a refactoring of Jean-Philippe Brucker's initial work dating from a while
back.  It is compatible with Steven Price's v14 revision [1] of his work adding
CCA support to KVM.

* We are currently working on rebasing the work to v15.

It was tested on the QEMU SBSA machine.  For convenience, a repository is hosted
here [2], along with the TF-A [3], RMM [4] and Linux kernel [5] for the SBSA
machine (compatible with Steven's v14 patchset).

Instructions to compile and run the entire stack can be found here [6].

Device Assignment is not included.

Thanks,
Mathieu

RFC v1:
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2026-07/msg02307.html

Changes for V2:
- Fixed linux headers to include correct bit shift for Realm VM (Gavin).
- Removed obsolete rme-guest options (Markus).
- Set ConfidentialGuestSupportClass::kvm_init() to kvm_arm_rme_init() (Gavin).
- Got rid of kvm_arm_rme_vm_type() (Gavin).
- Used kvm_vm_check_extension() instead of kvm_check_extension() to avoid
  error message when starting a Realm (Gavin).
- Removed obsolete kvm_arm_rme_init_guest_ram() (Gavin).
- Collected A-B and R-B.

[RFC v2 02/24] target/arm/kvm: Return immediately on error in kvm_arch_init()

[Mathieu Poirier]

From: Jean-Philippe Brucker <jean-philippe@linaro.org>

Returning an error to kvm_init() is fatal anyway, no need to continue
the initialization.

Leave the `ret` variable in the function scope because it will be reused
when adding RME support.

[RFC v2 03/24] target/arm: Add confidential guest support

[Mathieu Poirier]

From: Jean-Philippe Brucker <jean-philippe@linaro.org>

Add a new RmeGuest object, inheriting from ConfidentialGuestSupport, to
support the Arm Realm Management Extension (RME). It is instantiated by
passing on the command-line:

  -M virt,confidential-guest-support=<id>
  -object rme-guest,id=<id>

This is only the skeleton. Support will be added in following patches.

initialize.  To prepare for Realm VM initialization, split the get/put
register functions for a non-secure VM in their own function.

[RFC v2 06/24] target/arm/kvm-rme: Initialize vCPU

[Mathieu Poirier]

From: Jean-Philippe Brucker <jean-philippe@linaro.org>

The target code calls kvm_arm_vcpu_init() to mark the vCPU as part of a
Realm. For a Realm vCPU, only x0-x7 can be set at runtime. Before boot,
the PC can also be set, and is ignored at runtime. KVM also accepts a
few system register changes during initial configuration, as returned by
KVM_GET_REG_LIST.

From: Jean-Philippe Brucker <jean-philippe@linaro.org>

The Arm KVM code can return different values from KVM_CHECK_EXTENSION
depending on the VM type. Use kvm_vm_check_extension() where necessary
to ensure we get the right response from KVM.

[RFC v2 11/24] target/arm/kvm-rme: Populate Realm with runtime images

[Mathieu Poirier]

From: Jean-Philippe Brucker <jean-philippe@linaro.org>

Once the Realm descriptor has been created, tell KVM to transfer runtime
images (kernel, DT, and rootfs) from guest memory to Realm memory.

[RFC v2 12/24] target/arm/cpu: Set number of breakpoints and watchpoints in KVM

[Mathieu Poirier]

From: Jean-Philippe Brucker <jean-philippe@linaro.org>

Add "num-breakpoints" and "num-watchpoints" CPU parameters to configure
the debug features that KVM presents to the guest. The KVM vCPU
configuration is modified by calling SET_ONE_REG on the ID register.

This is needed for Realm VMs, whose parameters include breakpoints and
watchpoints, and influence the Realm Initial Measurement.

[RFC v2 18/24] hw/arm/virt: Disable DTB randomness for confidential VMs

[Mathieu Poirier]

From: Jean-Philippe Brucker <jean-philippe@linaro.org>

The dtb-randomness feature, which adds random seeds to the DTB, isn't
really compatible with confidential VMs since it randomizes the Realm
Initial Measurement. Enabling it is not an error, but it prevents
attestation. It also isn't useful to a Realm, which doesn't trust host
input.

Currently the feature is automatically enabled, unless the user disables
it on the command-line. Change it to OnOffAuto, and automatically
disable it for confidential VMs, unless the user explicitly enables it.

From: Jean-Philippe Brucker <jean-philippe@linaro.org>

For confidential VMs we'll want to skip flash device creation.
Unfortunately, in virt_instance_init() the machine->cgs member has not
yet been initialized, so we cannot check whether confidential guest is
enabled. Move virt_flash_create() to machvirt_init(), where we can
access the machine->cgs member.

[RFC v2 20/24] hw/arm/virt: Use RAM instead of flash for confidential guest firmware

[Mathieu Poirier]

From: Jean-Philippe Brucker <jean-philippe@linaro.org>

Use RAM instead of flash to store firmware image and boot information,
including UEFI variables.  That way the firmware can be measured and
included in the Realm's initial measurements.  It also prevents
variable stored in flash and modified as part of the boot process to
be leaked outside the Realm.

[RFC v2 21/24] target/arm/kvm-rme: Add DMA remapping for the shared memory region

[Mathieu Poirier]

From: Jean-Philippe Brucker <jean-philippe@linaro.org>

In Arm CCA, the guest-physical address space is split in half. The top
half represents memory shared between guest and host, and the bottom
half is private to the guest. From QEMU's point of view, the two halves
are merged into a single region, and pages within this region are either
shared or private.

Virtual devices implemented by the host are only allowed to access the
top half. For emulated MMIO, KVM strips the GPA before returning to
QEMU, so the GPA already belongs to QEMU's merged view of guest memory.
However DMA addresses cannot be stripped this way and need special
handling by the VMM.

When emulating DMA the VMM needs to translate the addresses into its
merged view. Add an IOMMU memory region on the top half, that
retargets DMA accesses to the merged sysmem.

[RFC v2 22/24] docs/interop/firmware.json: Add arm-rme firmware feature

[Mathieu Poirier]

From: Jean-Philippe Brucker <jean-philippe@linaro.org>

Some distributions provide packages continaing firmware to be run under
QEMU, such as "qemu-efi-aarch64" or "edk2-aarch64". Those packages also
contain descriptors in /usr/share/qemu/firmware/*.json listing the
firmware features, so that environments like libvirt can figure out
which firmware they can load.

Define an optional feature for arm64 firmware to indicate that a
firmware supports running in a Realm. Firmware implementations need
extra support for running in a Realm, in particular to distinguish
shared from private guest memory.

[Mathieu Poirier]

From: Jean-Philippe Brucker <jean-philippe@linaro.org>

An independent verifier needs to reconstruct the content of guest memory
in order to attest that it is running trusted code. To avoid having to
reconstruct the bootloader generated by QEMU, skip this step and jump
directly to the kernel, with the DTB address in x0 as specified by the
Linux boot protocol [1].

Hi Mathieu, thank you for your work on upstreaming CCA support. I've
tested this series in QEMU-TCG(x-rme=on) environments and confirmed
that the basic functionality works well.

I have a question about a QMP command for querying CCA capabilities.

Jean's tree contains the following commit adding such a QMP command. Was
this functionality intentionally omitted from this series?
https://git.codelinaro.org/linaro/dcap/qemu/-/commit/41f7852cc8590a38c47299a35a7238da09ff9a12

We are interested in adding this functionality because we are also
planning to upstream CCA support for libvirt, which will need a QMP
interface to query the CCA capabilities exposed by QEMU.

Since the Linux kernel dropped some configuration parameters such as the
hash algorithm, I need to rework the implementation of that QMP command
a bit. If it's okay with you, I'd be happy to send out the reworked
patch based on this series.

Thanks,
Kohei

Not a big deal, but a note for anyone testing this series:

Use Linaro's Linux kernel tree, as mentioned in the cover letter:
https://gitlab.com/Linaro/cca-public/linux/-/tree/upstream-v2?ref_type=heads

Alternetively, if you're using Arm's tree or other trees with Steven
Price's v14 series as I am:

You'll need to adjust the definition of KVM_CAP_ARM_RMI, since it uses a
differenct capability number.

It seems the capability values get an extra leap on KVM_CAP_ARM_AMI in
"upstream-v2" host kernel.

   include/uapi/linux/kvm.h

   #define KVM_CAP_S390_KEYOP 247
   #define KVM_CAP_S390_VSIE_ESAMODE 248
   #define KVM_CAP_ARM_RMI 250

Yes. The following commit changed it in "upstream-v2".
