BZ: https://bugzilla.tianocore.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3275
An SEV-SNP guest requires that private memory (aka pages mapped encrypted)
must be validated before being accessed.
The validation process consist of the following sequence:
1) Set the memory encryption attribute in the page table (aka C-bit).
Note: If the processor is in non-PAE mode, then all the memory accesses
are considered private.
2) Add the memory range as private in the RMP table. This can be performed
using the Page State Change VMGEXIT defined in the GHCB specification.
3) Use the PVALIDATE instruction to set the Validated Bit in the RMP table.
During the guest creation time, the VMM encrypts the OVMF_CODE.fd using
the SEV-SNP firmware provided LAUNCH_UPDATE_DATA command. In addition to
encrypting the content, the command also validates the memory region.
This allows us to execute the code without going through the validation
sequence.
During execution, the reset vector need to access some data pages
(such as page tables, SevESWorkarea, Sec stack). The data pages are
accessed as private memory. The data pages are not part of the
OVMF_CODE.fd, so they were not validated during the guest creation.
There are two approaches we can take to validate the data pages before
the access:
a) Enhance the OVMF reset vector code to validate the pages as described
above (go through step 2 - 3).
OR
b) Validate the pages during the guest creation time. The SEV firmware
provides a command which can be used by the VMM to validate the pages
without affecting the measurement of the launch.
Approach #b seems much simpler; it does not require any changes to the
OVMF reset vector code.
