Subject: x86/sev: Announcing Linux SVSM (Secure VM Service Module)
Date: Mon, 29 Aug 2022 17:34:34 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <59442cb6-0869-5986-9c2b-e9d713eb7145@amd.com> (raw)
Hello all,
We would like to announce the publication of our Rust open source project
Linux SVSM (Secure VM Service Module). Linux SVSM leverages AMD's SEV-SNP
technologies (hereafter referred to as just SNP).
SNP provides Virtual Machine Privilege Levels (VMPLs) for enhanced
security control. VMPL0 is the highest level of privilege. Linux SVSM boots
at VMPL 0, to then run guest BIOS/OVMF and Linux kernel at VMPL1. Certain
operations are only allowed to be performed at VMPL0 (e.g. use of the
PVALIDATE instruction and certain forms of RMPADJUST). The privilege
separation model of Linux SVSM will also be able to provide other services
such as live VM migration; and a virtual Trusted Platform Module (vTPM).
The link to the public repository is:
https://github.com/AMDESE/linux-svsm
It is our hope that the linux-coco mailing list will be used to answer
technical questions not covered by the available documentation.
Contributors to this open source project will be received with open arms!
