Subject: [PATCH v15 06/37] KVM: arm64: CCA: Define the user ABI
Date: Wed, 15 Jul 2026 15:28:08 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260715142841.80544-7-steven.price@arm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260715142841.80544-1-steven.price@arm.com>

There is one CAP (KVM_CAP_ARM_RMI) which identifies the presence of CCA,
and one ioctl.  The ioctl (KVM_ARM_RMI_POPULATE) is used to populate
memory during creation of the realm as this requires the RMM to copy
data from an unprotected address to the protected memory - CCA does not
support shared <-> private memory conversion where the memory contents
is preserved as this is incompatible with memory encryption.

Signed-off-by: Steven Price <steven.price@arm.com>
---
Changes since v13:
 * KVM_ARM_VCPU_RMI_PSCI_COMPLETE removed.
 * KVM_ARM_RMI_POPULATE documentation updated to reflect that the
   structure is written by the kernel.
 * CAP number bumped.
Changes since v12:
 * Change KVM_ARM_RMI_POPULATE to update the structure with the amount
   that has been progressed rather than return the number of bytes
   populated.
 * Describe the flag KVM_ARM_RMI_POPULATE_FLAGS_MEASURE.
 * CAP number is bumped.
 * NOTE: The PSCI ioctl may be removed in a future spec release.
Changes since v11:
 * Completely reworked to be more implicit. Rather than having explicit
   CAP operations to progress the realm construction these operations
   are done when needed (on populating and on first vCPU run).
 * Populate and PSCI complete are promoted to proper ioctls.
Changes since v10:
 * Rename symbols from RME to RMI.
Changes since v9:
 * Improvements to documentation.
 * Bump the magic number for KVM_CAP_ARM_RME to avoid conflicts.
Changes since v8:
 * Minor improvements to documentation following review.
 * Bump the magic numbers to avoid conflicts.
Changes since v7:
 * Add documentation of new ioctls
 * Bump the magic numbers to avoid conflicts
Changes since v6:
 * Rename some of the symbols to make their usage clearer and avoid
   repetition.
Changes from v5:
 * Actually expose the new VCPU capability (KVM_ARM_VCPU_REC) by bumping
   KVM_VCPU_MAX_FEATURES - note this also exposes KVM_ARM_VCPU_HAS_EL2!

+Populate a region of protected address space by copying the data from the
+(non-protected) user space pointer provided into a protected region (backed by
+guestmem_fd). It implicitly sets the destination region to RIPAS RAM. This is
+only valid before any VCPUs have been run. The ioctl might not populate the
+entire region and in this case the kernel updates the fields `base`, `size` and
+`source_uaddr`. User space may have to repeatedly call it until `size` is 0 to
+populate the entire region.
+
+`flags` can be set to `KVM_ARM_RMI_POPULATE_FLAGS_MEASURE` to request that the
+populated data is hashed and added to the guest's Realm Initial Measurement
+(RIM) stored by the RMM. This can then be retrieved by the guest (using the RSI
