[v5] efi/tpm: Fix the issue where the CC platforms event log header can't be correctly identified

[PATCH V5] efi/tpm: Fix the issue where the CC platforms event log header can't be correctly identified

Posted by yangge1116@126.com 2 months, 3 weeks ago

Since commit d228814b1913 ("efi/libstub: Add get_event_log() support
for CC platforms") reuses TPM2 support code for the CC platforms, when
launching a TDX virtual machine with coco measurement enabled, the
following error log is generated:

[Firmware Bug]: Failed to parse event in TPM Final Events Log

Call Trace:
efi_config_parse_tables()
  efi_tpm_eventlog_init()
    tpm2_calc_event_log_size()
      __calc_tpm2_event_size()

The pcr_idx value in the Intel TDX log header is 1, causing the function
__calc_tpm2_event_size() to fail to recognize the log header, ultimately
leading to the "Failed to parse event in TPM Final Events Log" error.

According to UEFI Specification 2.10, Section 38.4.1: For TDX, TPM PCR
0 maps to MRTD, so the log header uses TPM PCR 1 instead. To successfully
parse the TDX event log header, the check for a pcr_idx value of 0 must
be skipped. There's no danger of this causing problems because we check
for the TCG_SPECID_SIG signature as the next thing.

V5:
- remove the pcr_index check without adding any replacement checks suggested by James and Sathyanarayanan 

V4:
- remove cc_platform_has(CC_ATTR_GUEST_STATE_ENCRYPT) suggested by Ard 

V3:
- fix build error

V2:
- limit the fix for CC only suggested by Jarkko and Sathyanarayanan

This isn't a justification ... Intel just screwed up.  Whatever the
UEFI spec says about PCR mapping, the log spec the TCG produces
requires the header event to have a pcrIndex of 0 and, since it isn't
recorded in a PCR, it doesn't matter what the mapping is.

Just say Intel misread the spec and wrongly sets pcrIndex to 1 in the
header and since they did this, we fear others might, so we're relaxing
the header check.

James
