Hi all, In this email I would like to discuss number of things related to OP-TEE virtual memory management (and virtualization). (Note about terminology: I will use "VM" for "virtual memory" and "guest" for "virtual machine" in this email) I want to begin with motivation. As you know, I'm working on virtualization support in OP-TEE. My current approach is total isolation of different guests from each other. To implement this I want to divide all OP-TEE program state into two big parts: kernel and TEE. Kernel data (or kernel state) is a guest-agnostic data needed for a core services. Examples: temporary stacks used by entry points (used before thread_alloc_and_run() invocation), list of known guests, device drivers state and so on. This kind of data is not guest-specific, so naturally it should exist in one copy. TEE data (or TEE state) is guest-bound information: threads (with stack and state), opened sessions, loaded TAs, mutexes, pobjs and such. This kind of data have a meaning only regarding to a certain guest. So, memory layout can look like this: +----------+ | .reset | +----------+ | .text | +----------+ | .ro | +----------+ | .kdata | +----------+ | .kbss | +----------+ | .kheap | +----------+ +----------+ | .data | +----------+ | .bss | +----------+ | .heap | +----------+ | TA SPACE | +----------+ (This is just an illustration, I aware that actual OP-TEE layout is more complex). Sections starting with "k" belong to kernel data. I also extended bget. Now it supports multiple pools and I can use kmalloc() to allocated memory from .kheap and plain malloc() to allocate mempory from .heap. This layout allows us to switch guest context with simple banking: +----------+ | .reset | +----------+ | .text | +----------+ | .ro | +----------+ | .kdata | +----------+ | .kbss | +----------+ | .kheap | +----------+ ============ ============ ============ ==Guest 1=== ==Guest 2=== ==Guest 3=== ============ ============ ============ | .data | | .data | | .data | +----------+ +----------+ +----------+ | .bss | | .bss | | .bss | +----------+ +----------+ +----------+ | .heap | | .heap | | .heap | +----------+ +----------+ +----------+ | TA SPACE | | TA SPACE | | TA SPACE | +----------+ +----------+ +----------+ If guest suddenly dies, we can't cleanup resources (consider mutex that will be never unlocked). Instead we can just drop whole guest context and forged about it. But we will need special cleanup code for kernel state, though. This is a reason to keep kernel data footprint as small as possible. I think, it is clear now, why I want to talk about virtual memory management :) Right now (in absence of pager) OP-TEE is mostly mapped 1:1, all CPUs use the same mappings. Also there is a separate address space for a dynamic shared memory mappings. Pager actually does two things: it breaks 1:1 mapping and also actually does paging. My first intention was to reuse pager and to make it manage mappings for a different guests. But ever now it have an overhead, because of page encryption/hashing. Also, for virtualization it is crucial to have different mappings on different CPUs. Plus, for efficient guest context switching it is good to use TTBR1. All this means that pager should be severely rewritten. Also, use of TTBR1 imposes restrictions on guest context location in virtual address space. So, I think it is a good occasion to fully overhaul VM in OP-TEE. What I propose: 1. Let OP-TEE to live in own address space, not bound to platform configuration (i.e. as linux does). For example most of the OP-TEE will be mapped at 0x2000000, when TEE contexts will be mapped at 0x8000000. 2. Add page allocator. Currently tee_mm acts both as a page allocator and as a address space allocator. 3. Promote pgt_cache to full-scale address space manager. 4. Split pager into two parts: paging mechanism and backend. Backend can encrypt pages, hash them, or just use some platform-specific mechanism to protect paged-out pages 5. Rename things. pgt_cache is no more just a cache. tee_mm does two different things at once. Jens, I am sure, you have your own vision how VM management should like. Would you share your thoughts, please? Maybe there is a way, how I can implement TEE context banking with less effort. I will be very happy in this case :-) My biggest concern that if I'll take straight approach to context banking, this will complicate things a lot. So, I'm ready to improve VM part of OP-TEE for everyone's benefit, if it will ease up integration of virtualization support. I also CC'ed Julien Grall from ARM (and, now, from Linaro). He is one of ARM arch maintainers in XEN project. I think, he can share some valuable ideas about virtualization as a whole. -- WBR Volodymyr Babchuk aka lorc [+380976646013] mailto: vlad.babchuk(a)gmail.com

[PATCH v1 00/14] tee: optee: add dynamic shared memory support

by Volodymyr Babchuk

From: Volodymyr Babchuk <vlad.babchuk(a)gmail.com> This patch series enables dynamic shared memory support in the TEE subsystem as a whole and in OP-TEE in particular. Global Platform TEE specification [1] allows client applications to register part of own memory as a shared buffer between application and TEE. This allows fast zero-copy communication between TEE and REE. But current implementation of TEE in Linux does not support this feature. Also, current implementation of OP-TEE transport uses fixed size pre-shared buffer for all communications with OP-TEE OS. This is okay in the most use cases. But this prevents use of OP-TEE in virtualized environments, because: a) We can't share the same buffer between different virtual machines b) Physically contiguous memory as seen by VM can be non-contiguous in reality (and as seen by OP-TEE OS) due to second stage of MMU translation. c) Size of this pre-shared buffer is limited. So, first part of this patch series adds generic register/unregister interface to tee subsystem. Next patches add necessary features into OP-TEE driver, so it can use not only static pre-shared buffer, but whole RAM to communicate with OP-TEE OS.

eMMC driver in OP-TEE?

by Stuart Yoder

There is no storage controller driver in OP-TEE, as pointed out in the RPMB doc: There is no eMMC controller driver in OP-TEE. The device operations all have to go through the normal world. They are handled by the tee-supplicant process which further relies on the kernel's ioctl() interface to access the device. Is doing this a roadmap (or potential roadmap) item for OP-TEE? I'm wondering what discussions might have happened in the past, and if the idea has been rejected for some reason. Or, is it a potential future to do item? The use case would be if OP-TEE provided a secure key store, and access was need to that key store prior to normal world being available...for example, to store keys that encrypted the disk to be used by Linux. Thanks, Stuart

Pager and ARMv8

by Volodymyr Babchuk

Hello, I wanted to play wit pager on my RCAR board. Just to see if I can fit it to my virtualization PoC. But, I can't start OP-TEE with it. I have found this check: #ifdef ARM64 #ifdef CFG_WITH_PAGER #error "Pager not supported for ARM64" #endif #endif /*ARM64*/ in multiple platform_config.h files. But it bothers my, that this check is being done in platform code, not in some common place. I tried to remove it from plat-rcar/platform_config.h (along with adding TZSRAM definition). All builds fine, but, predictably, does not work :-). I added KEEP_PAGER() there and here in now at least I can see some debug output. Right now it fails there: ERROR: [0x0] TEE-CORE: assertion '!((va | end) & SMALL_PAGE_MASK)' failed at core/arch/arm/mm/core_mmu.c:851 <init_mem_map> So, now I'm wondering: is it really that ARMv8 is not supported at all? Why there is no check in common code then? Or is it problem of my platform configuration? -- WBR Volodymyr Babchuk aka lorc [+380976646013] mailto: vlad.babchuk(a)gmail.com

[PATCH] optee: fix invalid of_node_put() in optee_driver_init()

by Jens Wiklander

The first node supplied to of_find_matching_node() has its reference counter decreased as part of call to that function. In optee_driver_init() after calling of_find_matching_node() it's invalid to call of_node_put() on the supplied node again. So remove the invalid call to of_node_put().

[PATCH 0/3] tee: asynchronous supplicant requests

by Jens Wiklander

Hi, Currently all tee supplicant communication is synchronous. This isn't very limiting if the supplicant only is accessing system local resources like storage. With network access via the supplicant it becomes a larger problem. This patch set enables asynchronous communication with the supplicant by introducing meta parameters in the user space API. The meta parameters can be used to tag requests with an id that can be matched against an asynchronous response as is done here in the OP-TEE driver. Asynchronous supplicant communication is needed by OP-TEE to implement GlobalPlatforms TEE Sockets API Specification v1.0.1. The specification is available at https://www.globalplatform.org/specificationsdevice.asp. This change is backwards compatible allowing older supplicants to work with newer kernels and vice versa.

debugging heap issues in OP-TEE

by Stuart Yoder

All, I am facing an issue I need to debug where after running some number of TAs, the OP-TEE kernel is no longer able to malloc() memory and can no longer load a TA. So, there seems to be a leak of some kind I need to debug. I'm using a crypto accelerator, and so there is most likely a bug in my crypto driver. Is there any debug mechanism in OP-TEE I could use to get data or statistics about how much space is left on the heap? I've poked around some and don't see anything, but thought I would ask. Thanks, Stuart

OP-TEE 2.6.0-rc1 is available for testing

by Jerome Forissier

Dear OP-TEE contributors and maintainers, We're getting close to releasing OP-TEE 2.6.0. I am pretty excited about this release, because it supports quite a few new platforms and introduces cool features. A big one, in my opinion, is dynamic shared memory [1] by Volodymyr Babchuk. In addition to being quite helpful technically, this contribution is remarkable because it was developed largely outside Linaro. I certainly hope we get more and more involvement from the community in the future. I have created release candidate tag 1 (2.6.0-rc1). Can you please help with the following? 1. Check the CHANGELOG, see pull request #1881 [2] 2. Test 2.6.0-rc1 on your favorite platform(s). Please use the change log pull request to report success (Tested-by:) or issues. To upgrade to 2.6.0-rc1 you need to checkout this tag in projects optee_os, optee_client and optee_test. Please note our linux kernel branch has been updated [3], it is now based on upstream 4.12. If your platform uses OP-TEE's Secure Data Path feature (CFG_SECURE_DATA_PATH=y), make sure you upgrade because ION has changed and xtest depends on this [4]. [1] https://github.com/OP-TEE/optee_os/commit/55d6853cb468 and https://github.com/OP-TEE/optee_os/commit/b05cd886e06d [2] https://github.com/OP-TEE/optee_os/pull/1881 [3] https://github.com/linaro-swg/linux/tree/optee [4] https://github.com/OP-TEE/optee_test/commit/8bc3142b3b2b Thanks for your help and support, -- Jerome OP-TEE Maintainer
