SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0 + +=================================================================== +TDX Guest API Documentation +=================================================================== + +1. General description +====================== + +The TDX guest driver exposes IOCTL interfaces via the /dev/tdx-guest misc +device to allow userspace to get certain TDX guest-specific details. + +2. API description +================== + +In this section, for each supported IOCTL, the following information is +provided along with a generic description. + +:Input parameters: Parameters passed to the IOCTL and related details. +:Output: Details about output data and return value (with details about + the non common error values). + +2.1 TDX_CMD_GET_REPORT0 +----------------------- + +:Input parameters: struct tdx_report_req +:Output: Upon successful execution, TDREPORT data is copied to + tdx_report_req.tdreport and return 0. Return -EINVAL for invalid + operands, -EIO on TDCALL failure or standard error number on other + common failures. + +The TDX_CMD_GET_REPORT0 IOCTL can be used by the attestation software to get +the TDREPORT0 (a.k.a. TDREPORT subtype 0) from the TDX module using +TDCALL[TDG.MR.REPORT]. + +A subtype index is added at the end of this IOCTL CMD to uniquely identify the +subtype-specific TDREPORT request. Although the subtype option is mentioned in +the TDX Module v1.0 specification, section titled "TDG.MR.REPORT", it is not +currently used, and it expects this value to be 0. So to keep the IOCTL +implementation simple, the subtype option was not included as part of the input +ABI. However, in the future, if the TDX Module supports more than one subtype, +a new IOCTL CMD will be created to handle it. To keep the IOCTL naming +consistent, a subtype index is added as part of the IOCTL CMD. + +Reference +--------- + +TDX reference material is collected here: + +https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/developer/articles/technical/intel-trust-domain-extensions.html + +The driver is based on TDX module specification v1.0 and TDX GHCI specification v1.0. diff --git a/Documentation/virt/index.rst b/Documentation/virt/index.rst index 2f1cffa87b1b..56e003ff28ff 100644 --- a/Documentation/virt/index.rst +++ b/Documentation/virt/index.rst @@ -14,6 +14,7 @@ Linux Virtualization Support ne_overview acrn/index coco/sev-guest + coco/tdx-guest hyperv/index .. only:: html and subproject diff --git a/Documentation/virt/kvm/api.rst b/Documentation/virt/kvm/api.rst index eee9f857a986..896914e3a847 100644 --- a/Documentation/virt/kvm/api.rst +++ b/Documentation/virt/kvm/api.rst @@ -7213,14 +7213,13 @@ veto the transition. :Parameters: args[0] is the maximum poll time in nanoseconds :Returns: 0 on success; -1 on error -This capability overrides the kvm module parameter halt_poll_ns for the -target VM. - -VCPU polling allows a VCPU to poll for wakeup events instead of immediately -scheduling during guest halts.
