Changes since v12:
 - add max_size field in the virtio-crypto device config in order
   to tell the driver what's maximum size of crypto request the
   device supports.     [Michael]
 - add max_cipher_key_len and max_auth_key_len in the device config
   too for the symmetric algorithms to limit resource utilization by
   guest. [Thoughts come from Michael]

Changes since v11:
 - drop scatter-gather I/O definition for virtio crypto device because
   The vring already provides scatter-gather I/O.  It is usually not
   necessary to define scatter-gather I/O at the device level.      [Stefan]
 - perfect algorithm chain parameters' definition.
 - add HASH/MAC parameter structure.

Changes since v10:
 - fix typos s/filed/field/. [Xin]
 - replace 'real cypto accelerator' with 'backend crypto accelerator'. [mst]

 - write a device requirement are testable about VIRTIO_CRYPTO_S_HW_READY. [mst]
 - add a space before * in one code comment. [mst]
 - reset the layout of all crypto operations for better asymmetric algos support. [Xin]
 - add more detailed description for initialization vector under different modes.
 - sed -i 's/VIRTIO_CRYPTO_OP_/VIRTIO_CRYPTO_/g' for general usage in asym algos. [Xin]

Changes since v9:
 - request a native speaker go over the text and fix corresponding grammar issues. [mst]
 - make some description more appropriated over here and there. [mst]
 - rewrite some requirement for both device and driver. [mst]
 - use RFC 2119 keywords. [mst]
 - fix some complaints by Xelatex and typoes. [Xin Zeng]
 - add scatter/getter chain support for possible large block data.

Thanks for your review, Michael and Xin.

Changes from v8:
 - add additional auth gpa and length to struct virtio_crypto_sym_data_req;
 - add definition of op in struct virtio_crypto_cipher_session_para,
  VIRTIO_CRYPTO_OP_ENCRYPT and VIRTIO_CRYPTO_OP_DECRYPT;
 - make all structures 64bit aligned in order to support different
  architectures more conveniently [Alex & Stefan]
 - change to devicenormative{\subsection} and \drivernormative{\subsection} in some sections [Stefan]
 - driver does not have to initialize all data virtqueues if it wants to use fewer [Stefan]
 - drop VIRTIO_CRYPTO_NO_SERVICE definition [Stefan]
 - many grammatical problems and typos. [Stefan]
 - rename VIRTIO_CRYPTO_MAC_CMAC_KASUMI_F9 to VIRTIO_CRYPTO_MAC_CMAC_KASUMI_F9,
  and VIRTIO_CRYPTO_MAC_CMAC_SNOW3G_UIA2 to VIRTIO_CRYPTO_MAC_SNOW3G_UIA2. [Liang Ma]
 - drop queue_id property of struct virtio_crypto_op_data_req.
 - reconstruct some structures about session operation request.
 - introduce struct virtio_crypto_alg_chain_session_req and struct virtio_crypto_alg_chain_data_req,
  introduce chain para, output, input structures as well.
 - change some sections' layout for better compatibility, for asymmetric algos. [Xin Zeng]

Changes from v7:
 - fix some grammar or typo problems.
 - add more detailed description at steps of encryption section.

Changes from v6:
 - drop verion filed in struct virtio_crypto_config. [Michael & Cornelia]
 - change the incorrect description in initialization routine. [Zeng Xin]
 - redefine flag u16 to make structure alignment. [Zeng Xin]
 - move the content of virtio_crypto_hash_session_para into
   virtio_crypto_hash_session_input directly, Same to MAC/SYM/AEAD session creation. [Zeng Xin]
 - adjuest the sequence of idata and odata refer to the virtio scsi parts,
   meanwhile add the comments of device-readable/writable for them.
 - add restrictive documents for the guest memory in some structure, which
   MUST be gauranted to be allocated and physically-contiguous.

Changes from v5:
 - add conformance clauses for virtio crypto device. [Michael]
 - drop VIRTIO_CRYPTO_S_STARTED. [Michael]
 - fix some characters problems. [Stefan]
 - add a MAC algorithm, named VIRTIO_CRYPTO_MAC_ZUC_EIA3. [Zeng Xin]

   for invalid session id when executing crypto operations.
 - drop some gpu stuff forgot to delete. [Michael]
 - convert tab to space all over the content.

Changes from v4:
 - introduce crypto services into virtio crypto device. The services
   currently defined are CIPHER, MAC, HASH, AEAD, KDF, ASYM, PRIMITIVE.
 - define a unified crypto request format that is consisted of
   general header + service specific request,  Where 'general header' is for all
   crypto request,  'service specific request' is composed of
   operation parameter + input data + output data in generally.
   operation parameter is algorithm-specific parameters,
   input data is the data should be operated ,
   output data is the "operation result + result buffer".
 - redefine the algorithms and structure based on above crypto services.
 - rearrange the title and subtitle
 - Only support CIPHER, MAC, HASH and AEAD crypto services, and Xin will
   focus KDF, ASYM and PRIMITIVE services.
 - Some other corresponding fixes.
 - Make a formal patch using tex type.

This version is a big reconstruction based on Zeng, Xin' comments, thanks a lot.

Changes from v3:
 - Don't use enum is the spec but macros in specific structures. [Michael & Stefan]
 - Add two complete structures for session creation and closing, so that
  the spec is clear on how to lay out the request.  [Stefan]
 - Definite the crypto operation request with assigned structure, in this way,
  each data request only occupies *one entry* of the Vring descriptor table,
  which *improves* the *throughput* of data transferring.

Changes from v2:
 - Reserve virtio device ID 20 for crypto device. [Cornelia]
 - Drop all feature bits, those capabilities are offered by the device all the time.  [Stefan & Cornelia]
 - Add a new section 1.4.2 for driver requirements. [Stefan]
 - Use definite type definition instead of enum type in some structure. [Stefan]
 - Add virtio_crypto_cipher_alg definition. [Stefan]
 - Add a "Device requirements" section as using MUST. [Stefan]
 - Some grammar nits fixes and typo fixes. [Stefan & Cornelia]
 - Add one VIRTIO_CRYPTO_S_STARTED status for the driver as the flag of virtio-crypto device started and can work now.

Great thanks for Stefan and Cornelia!

Changes from v1:
 - Drop the feature bit definition for each algorithm, and using config space instead  [Cornelia]
 - Add multiqueue support and add corresponding feature bit
 - Update Encryption process and header definition
 - Add session operation process and add corresponding header description
 - Other better description in order to fit for virtio spec  [Michael]
 - Some other trivial fixes.

+\section{Crypto Device}\label{sec:Device Types / Crypto Device}
+
+The virtio crypto device is a virtual cryptography device as well as a kind of
+virtual hardware accelerator for virtual machines. The encryption and
+decryption requests are placed in the data queue and are ultimately handled by the
+backend crypto accelerators. The second queue is the control queue used to create 
+or destroy sessions for symmetric algorithms and will control some advanced
+features in the future. The virtio crypto device provides the following crypto
+services: CIPHER, MAC, HASH, and AEAD.

+\paragraph{Session operation}\label{sec:Device Types / Crypto Device / Device Operation / Control Virtqueue / Session operation}
+
+The symmetric algorithms involve the concept of sessions. A session is a
+handle which describes the cryptographic parameters to be applied to
+a number of buffers. The data within a session handle includes the following:
+
+\begin{enumerate}
+\item The operation (CIPHER, HASH/MAC or both, and if both, the order in
+      which the algorithms should be applied).
+\item The CIPHER set data, including the CIPHER algorithm and mode,
+      the key and its length, and the direction (encrypt or decrypt).
+\item The HASH/MAC set data, including the HASH algorithm or MAC algorithm,
+      and digest result length (to allow for truncation).
+\begin{itemize*}
+\item Authenticated mode can refer to MAC, which requires that the key and
+      its length are also specified.
+\item For nested mode, the inner and outer prefix data and length are specified,
+      as well as the outer HASH algorithm.
+\end{itemize*}

This seems to be out of sync regarding the code (e.g. can't find it in virtio-crypto.h of the
series linked in the cover-letter). It seems to me this reflects v4 since the stuff is gone
since v5 (qemu code).

Thus this does not make any sense to me. Furthermore the problem seems to persist
across the specification. Thus in my opinion there is no point in reviewing
this version. Or am I missing something here? In case I'm not missing anything
and the spec describes something quite outdated when should we expect a new
version of the spec?

Nope, Actually I kept those description here is because I wanted to represent each packet
Intuitionally, otherwise I don't know how to explain them only occupy one entry in desc table
by indirect table method. So I changed the code completely as Stefan's suggestion and
revised the spec a little.

This just is a representative of the realization so that the people can easily understand what
the virtio crypto request's components. It isn't completely same with the code.
For virtio-scsi device, the struct virtio_scsi_req_cmd also used this way IIUR.

I think you need to revise the spec a bit more :) IIUC, you should
simply state that you use the indirect table method and not mention any
guest physical addresses.

It seemes to have caused at least some confusion - perhaps you
simplyfied too much?

Yes, will remove the gpa description stuff. Using indirect table is a method for high performance
and throughput, I'll mention it as a note. Pls see my another reply to Michael.

I attach a diff for next version in order to review more convenient, with

 - Drop the all gap stuff;
 - Drop all structures undefined in virtio_crypto.h
 - re-describe per request for per crypto service avoid confusion

I'd just drop this note - I don't see why is crypto special here.

strut -> struct?

add "to one of the values"? Also, just list the enum name here in case
we add more values?

not support - not supported?

stores

the executing status -> status of executing the MAC operations?

With this fixup patch commenting on the series becomes quite a hassle.
I would recommend you to fix the issues Michael has pointed out, maybe
do another consistency check regarding naming and regarding layout/format
notation across the whole specification, and re-spin.

An example for the lack chapter internal consistency is: "There is a unified
idata structure for all service, including CIPHER, HASH, MAC, and AEAD." since
this is the only occurrence of idata in the specification. Another one is 
struct virtio_crypto_hash_para {
/* length of source data */
le32 src_data_len;         <-- here you call it source data
/* hash result length */   <-- here you call it hash_result
le32 hash_result_len;
};
struct virtio_crypto_hash_data_req {
/* Device-readable part */
struct virtio_crypto_hash_para para;
/* Source buffer */         <-- here you call it buffer
/* Output data here */
/* Device-writable part */
/* Digest result buffer */  <-- here you call it digest result
/* Input data here */
struct virtio_crypto_inhdr inhdr;
};

For the cross specification consistency I would encourage you to
not use comments ambiguously for comments and for representing a
byte array variable size holding some kind of data (like src buf
dest/result buf, key buf).

The rest of the specification seems to use (variable length)
array of u8 notation for that when specifying the layout of
requests (or just describes stuff with words). For example:

struct virtio_blk_req {
le32 type;
le32 reserved;
le64 sector;
u8 data[][512];                    <-- here
u8 status;
};

or

struct virtio_scsi_req_cmd {
// Device-readable part
u8 lun[8];
le64 id;
u8 task_attr;
u8 prio;
u8 crn;
u8 cdb[cdb_size];
// The next two fields are only present if VIRTIO_SCSI_F_T10_PI
// is negotiated.
le32 pi_bytesout;
le32 pi_bytesin;
u8 pi_out[pi_bytesout];              <-- here
u8 dataout[];                        <-- here
// Device-writable part
le32 sense_len;
le32 residual;
le16 status_qualifier;
u8 status;
u8 response;
u8 sense[sense_size];
// The next two fields are only present if VIRTIO_SCSI_F_T10_PI
// is negotiated
u8 pi_in[pi_bytesin];                <-- here
u8 datain[];                         <-- here
};


Furthermore I would refrain from formulations like "guest
memory recorded by digest result buffer". Instead try to
use formulations consistent with the rest of the specification.

Finally I want to point out that the things got much easier
to understand with this last fixup (IMHO) despite of all
the typos, and that there are still more issues we did not
point out explicitly.

Make pretty sense! I tried to find a good way to express those kind of data,

OK, will recheck. But I'm not a native English speaker, so if you
give me some specific comments about formulations
will be appreciated ;)

whether to use the indirect method should not be up to device.
I don't see where does the spec require indirect method,
ANY_LAYOUT is implied so spec should not dictate that IMO.

Yes, I reread the virtio spec. And

2.4.4 says: 
 " The framing of messages with descriptors is independent of the contents of the buffers."

2.4.4.2 says:
 "The driver SHOULD NOT use an excessive number of descriptors to describe a buffer."

For virtio-crypto, I think I can just add a NOTE to remind people using indirect method 
if they want to get better performance in production environment, can I?

I'm not sure why frankly. Is there a reason crypto is special here?

I just think each virtio crypto device maybe use many entries for one request. 
But you are right, whether to use the indirect method should not be up to device.

The device shouldn't touch this.
