Subject: [PATCH 0/5] KVM: x86: Expose Zhaoxin CPUID 0xC0000001 EDX cryptographic features
Date: Wed, 13 May 2026 17:36:28 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260513093633.1608334-1-ewandevelop@gmail.com> (raw)
This series exposes five groups of Zhaoxin-specific CPUID 0xC0000001 EDX
feature bits to KVM guests. Each group corresponds to a category of
user-mode cryptographic or RNG instructions that have been present in
Zhaoxin processors but not yet advertised by KVM.
All instructions covered here are user-mode and available in all CPU
modes (real / V86 / compat / protected / long), with no associated MSR
control. Each feature is reported as a (X, X_EN) pair where the two
bits are redundant by hardware design (set or cleared together), and both
are CPUID-level reporting bits requiring no KVM emulation.
The five feature groups:
1. SM2 (bits 0, 1): SM2 elliptic-curve public-key cryptography algorithm
per GM/T 0003-2012. Used for key generation, encryption/decryption,
digital signatures, and key exchange in Chinese cryptographic
standards.
2. CCS (bits 4, 5): SM3 hash algorithm per GM/T 0004-2012 and SM4 block
cipher per GM/T 0002-2012 (supports ECB / CBC / CFB / OFB / CTR plus
CBC-MAC / CFB-MAC). Foundational primitives for Chinese cryptographic
protocols.
3. RNG2 (bits 22, 23): Second-generation hardware RNG exposed via the
REP XRNG2 instruction. Two on-die RNG sources selectable per call,
with raw and post-processed output modes. Provides high-quality
entropy for cryptographic operations.
4. PHE2 (bits 25, 26): SHA-384 and SHA-512 hardware acceleration per
FIPS 180-3, exposed via REP XSHA384 and REP XSHA512. Used by TLS,
SSH, file integrity, and signature schemes.
5. RSA (bits 27, 28): Big-number modular exponentiation (REP XMODEXP,
A^B mod M) and modular multiplication (REP MONTMUL2, A*B mod M),
supporting operand sizes from 256 to 32768 bits. Used for RSA and
related public-key operations.

semantics referenced in the individual patches are documented in:

XMODEXP / MONTMUL2)
