[RFC kvmtool 00/31] arm64: Support for Arm Confidential Compute Architecture

[Suzuki K Poulose <suzuki.poulose@arm.com>]

This series is an initial version of the support for running VMs under the
Arm Confidential Compute Architecture. The purpose of the series is to gather
feedback on the proposed UABI changes for running Confidential VMs with KVM.
More information on the Arm CCA and instructions for how to get, build and run
the entire software stack is available here [0].

A new option, `--realm` is added to the the `run` command to mark the VM as a
confidential compute VM. This version doesn't use the Guest private memory [1]
support yet, instead uses normal anonymous/hugetlbfs backed memory. Our aim is
to switch to the guest private memory for the Realm.

The host including the kernel and kvmtool, must not access any memory allocated
to the protected IPA of the Realm.

The series adds the support for managing the lifecycle of the Realm, which includes:
   * Configuration
   * Creation of Realm (RD)
   * Load initial memory images
   * Creation of Realm Execution Contexts (RECs aka VCPUs)a
   * Activation of the Realm.

Patches are split as follows :

Patches 1 and 2 are fixes to existing code.
Patch 3 adds a new option --nocompat to disable compat warnings
Patches 4 - 6 are some preparations for Realm specific changes.

The remaining patches adds Realm support and using the --realm option is
enabled in patch 30.

The v1.0 of the Realm Management Monitor (RMM) specification doesn't support
paging protected memory of a Realm. Thus all of the memory backing the RAM
is locked by the VMM.

Since the IPA space of a Realm is split into Protected and Unprotected, with
one alias of the other, the VMM doubles the IPA Size for a Realm VM.

The KVM support for Arm CCA is advertised with a new cap KVM_CAP_ARM_RME.
A new "VM type" field is defined in the vm_type for CREATE_VM ioctl to indicate
that a VM is "Realm". Once the VM is created, the life cycle of the Realm is
managed via KVM_ENABLE_CAP of KVM_CAP_ARM_RME.

Command line options are also added to configure the Realm parameters.
These include :
 - Hash algorithm for measurements
 - Realm personalisation value
 - SVE vector Length (Optional feature in v1.0 RMM spec. Not yet supported
   by the TF-RMM. coming soon).

Support for PMU and self-hosted debug (number of watchpoint/breakpoit registers)
are not supported yet in the KVM/RMM implementation. This will be added soon.

The UABI doesn't support discovering the "supported" configuration values. In
real world, the Realm configuration 'affects' the initial measurement of the
Realms and which may be verified by a remote entity. Thus, the VMM is not at
liberty to make choices for configurations based on the "host" capabilities.
Instead, VMM should launch a Realm with the user requested parameters. If this
cannot be satisfied, there is no point in running the Realm. We are happy to
change this if there is interest.

Special actions are required to load the initial memory images (e.g, kernel,
firmware, DTB, initrd) in to the Realm memory.

For VCPUs, we add a new feature KVM_ARM_VCPU_REC, which will be used to control
the creation of the REC object (via KVM_ARM_VCPU_FINALIZE). This must be done
after the initial register state of the VCPUs are set.
RMM imposes an order in which the RECs are created. i.e., they must be created
in the ascending order of the MPIDR. This is for now a responsibility of the
VMM.

Once the Realm images are loaded, VCPUs created, Realm is activated before
the first vCPU is run.

virtio for the Realms enforces VIRTIO_F_ACCESS_PLATFORM flag.

Also, added support for injecting SEA into the VM for unhandled MMIO.

A tree with the patches are also available here :

Running the Realm
------------------

A realm VM can be launched using :

 $ lkvm run						\
	 --realm					\
	 --disable-sve					\
	 [ --measurement-algo="sha256","sha512" ]	\
	 [ --realm-pv="<realm-pv>" ]			\
	 <normal-VM options>
