This series adds an Ultravisor(UV) device letting the userspace send some Ultravisor calls to the UV. Currently two calls are supported. Query Ultravisor Information (QUI) and Receive Attestation Measurement (Attest[ation]).
The UV device is implemented as a miscdevice accepting only IOCTLs. The IOCTL cmd specifies the UV call and the IOCTL arg the request and response data depending on the UV call. The device driver writes the UV response in the ioctl argument data.
The 'uvdevice' does no checks on the request beside faulty userspace addresses, if sizes are in a sane range before allocating in kernel space, and other tests that prevent the system from corruption. Especially, no checks are made, that will be performed by the UV anyway (E.g. 'invalid command' in case of attestation on unsupported hardware). These errors are reported back to userspace using the UV return code field.
The first patch introduces the new device as a module configured to be compiled directly into the kernel (y) similar to the s390 SCLP and CHSH miscdevice modules. The second atch introduces Kselftests which verify error paths of the ioctl.
@Greg There is now a userspace tool "pvattest" that uses the new device: https://github.com/ibm-s390-linux/s390-tools/tree/for-2.22
We are currently discussing some nits regarding the processing of certificates and the user interface and add the tool to s390-tools/master afterwards. However, the interface to the kernel is fixed. The tool (pvattest) will be in s390-tools 2.22 that accompanies linux 5.18. You will be most interested in S390-tools/pvattest/src/uvio.{h,c} and S390-tools/pvattest/src/pvattest.c
v3->v4: * Dropped the QUI related patches, as we agreed that we do not want to expose the QUI-UVC to userspace for now. * Kconfig option was misplaced inside the S390 TAPE group ->fixed * Some nits fixed: * dropped the X from S390X in the uvdevice.h guard * fixes kernel doc style issue in uvdevice.c
v2->v3: The main change is that QUI is now introduced after Attestation as we might not want pick it. Also the Kselftest patch is splitted into Attestation and QUI so that they can be picked without requiring QUI support of the uvdevice.
* dropped the Kconfig dependency * reorganized the series: - Patch 1 now covers the introduction of the uvdevice and Attestation - Patch 2 adds QUI to uvdevice - Patch 3/4 add Kselftests for Attestation and QUI * fixed some nits * added some comments
v1->v2: * ioctl returns -ENOIOCTLCMD in case of a invalid ioctl command * streamlined reserved field test * default Kconfig is y instead of m * improved selftest documentation
