The SEV-SNP API specifies a command for hotloading the SEV firmware.
when no SEV or SEV-ES guests are running. The firmware hotloading
support is dependent on the firmware_upload API for better ease-of-use,
and to not necessarily require SEV firmware hotloading support when
building the ccp driver.
For safety, there are steps the kernel should take before allowing a
firmware to be committed:
1. Writeback invalidate all.
2. Data fabric flush.
3. All GCTX pages must be updated successfully with SNP_GUEST_STATUS
The snp_context_create function had the possibility to leak GCTX pages,
so the first patch fixes that bug in KVM.
The ccp driver must continue to be unloadable, so the second patch in
this series fixes a cyclic refcount bug in firmware_loader.
The third patch adds SEV_CMD_DOWNLOAD_FIRMWARE_EX support with the
required safety conditions and adds a new argument to the platform
initialization arguments to delay legacy platform initialization.
The command allows for firmware to be committed at the time of download,
but due to the safety requirements, its better to leave that to a follow-up
SNP_COMMIT command.
The fourth patch uses the new platform initialization argument when the
vm_type is not legacy SEV/SEV-ES.
The bulk of this series is in the changes to ccp in the third patch.
The KVM_EXIT for requesting certificates on extended guest request is
not part of this patch series. Any such support must be designed with
races between SNP_COMMIT and servicing extended guest requests such that
the REPORTED_TCB in an attestation_report always correctly corresponds
to the certificates returned by the extended guest request handler.
