[PATCH v2 2/5] crypto/ccp: export firmware supported vm types

Tycho Andersen
2026-03-24T19:42:02Z

In some configurations, the firmware does not support all VM types. The SEV
firmware has an entry in the TCB_VERSION structure referred to as the
Security Version Number in the SEV-SNP firmware specification and referred
to as the "SPL" in SEV firmware release notes. The SEV firmware release
notes say:

On every SEV firmware release where a security mitigation has been
added, the SNP SPL gets increased by 1. This is to let users know that
it is important to update to this version.

The SEV firmware release that fixed CVE-2025-48514 by disabling SEV-ES
support on vulnerable platforms has this SVN increased to reflect the fix.
The SVN is platform-specific, as is the structure of TCB_VERSION.

Check CURRENT_TCB instead of REPORTED_TCB, since the firmware behaves with
the CURRENT_TCB SVN level and will reject SEV-ES VMs accordingly.

Parse the SVN, and mask off the SEV_ES supported VM type from the list of
supported types if it is above the per-platform threshold for the relevant
platforms.
