Subject: [PATCH v2 0/4] Allow disabling RAPL during SNP initialization
Date: Mon, 27 Apr 2026 14:48:43 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260427204847.112899-1-tycho@kernel.org> (raw)
From: "Tycho Andersen (AMD)" <tycho@kernel.org>
The PLATYPUS (https://platypusattack.com/platypus.pdf) attack paper
offers method for exfiltration via a low-resolution side channel using
Running Average Power Limit. Newer versions of the SEV firmware offer a
way to freeze these counters while initialized, so export this as an
option.
Changes from v1:
* add a blurb from the platypus attack paper about the side channel
* move the kernel parameter from the ccp driver to kvm_amd to make it
more obvious
* split off the SEV-ES feature detection into its own series:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260416232329.3408497-1-seanjc@google.com/
v1 is here: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260223162900.772669-1-tycho@kernel.org/
Tycho Andersen (AMD) (4):
crypto/ccp: Pass init_args to __sev_snp_init_locked()
crypto/ccp: Support setting RAPL_DIS in SNP_INIT_EX
KVM: SEV: Add the kvm-amd.rapl_disable module parameter
KVM: selftests: Add a smoke test support for RAPL_DIS
