TEE subsystem
|
|
=============
|
|
|
|
This document describes the TEE subsystem in Linux.
|
|
|
|
A TEE (Trusted Execution Environment) is a trusted OS running in some
|
|
secure environment, for example, TrustZone on ARM CPUs, or a separate
|
|
secure co-processor etc. A TEE driver handles the details needed to
|
|
communicate with the TEE.
|
|
|
|
This subsystem deals with:
|
|
|
|
- Registration of TEE drivers
|
|
|
|
- Managing shared memory between Linux and the TEE
|
|
|
|
- Providing a generic API to the TEE
|
|
|
|
The TEE interface
|
|
=================
|
|
|
|
include/uapi/linux/tee.h defines the generic interface to a TEE.
|
|
|
|
User space (the client) connects to the driver by opening /dev/tee[0-9]* or
|
|
/dev/teepriv[0-9]*.
|
|
|
|
- TEE_IOC_SHM_ALLOC allocates shared memory and returns a file descriptor
|
|
which user space can mmap. When user space doesn't need the file
|
|
descriptor any more, it should be closed. When shared memory isn't needed
|
|
any longer it should be unmapped with munmap() to allow the reuse of
|
|
memory.
|
|
|
|
- TEE_IOC_VERSION lets user space know which TEE this driver handles and
|
|
its capabilities.
|
|
|
|
- TEE_IOC_OPEN_SESSION opens a new session to a Trusted Application.
|
|
|
|
- TEE_IOC_INVOKE invokes a function in a Trusted Application.
|
|
|
|
- TEE_IOC_CANCEL may cancel an ongoing TEE_IOC_OPEN_SESSION or TEE_IOC_INVOKE.
|
|
|
|
- TEE_IOC_CLOSE_SESSION closes a session to a Trusted Application.
|
|
|
|
There are two classes of clients, normal clients and supplicants. The latter is
|
|
a helper process for the TEE to access resources in Linux, for example file
|
|
system access. A normal client opens /dev/tee[0-9]* and a supplicant opens
|
|
/dev/teepriv[0-9].
|
|
|
|
Much of the communication between clients and the TEE is opaque to the
|
|
driver. The main job for the driver is to receive requests from the
|
|
clients, forward them to the TEE and send back the results. In the case of
|
|
supplicants the communication goes in the other direction, the TEE sends
|
|
requests to the supplicant which then sends back the result.
|
|
|
|
The TEE kernel interface
|
|
========================
|
|
|
|
Kernel provides a TEE bus infrastructure where a Trusted Application is
|
|
represented as a device identified via Universally Unique Identifier (UUID) and
|
|
client drivers register a table of supported device UUIDs.
|
|
|
|
TEE bus infrastructure registers following APIs:
|
|
|
|
match():
|
|
iterates over the client driver UUID table to find a corresponding
|
|
match for device UUID. If a match is found, then this particular device is
|
|
probed via corresponding probe API registered by the client driver. This
|
|
process happens whenever a device or a client driver is registered with TEE
|
|
bus.
|
|
|
|
uevent():
|
|
notifies user-space (udev) whenever a new device is registered on
|
|
TEE bus for auto-loading of modularized client drivers.
|
|
|
|
TEE bus device enumeration is specific to underlying TEE implementation, so it
|
|
is left open for TEE drivers to provide corresponding implementation.
|
|
|
|
Then TEE client driver can talk to a matched Trusted Application using APIs
|
|
listed in include/linux/tee_drv.h.
|
|
|
|
TEE client driver example
|
|
-------------------------
|
|
|
|
Suppose a TEE client driver needs to communicate with a Trusted Application
|
|
having UUID: ``ac6a4085-0e82-4c33-bf98-8eb8e118b6c2``, so driver registration
|
|
snippet would look like::
|
|
|
|
static const struct tee_client_device_id client_id_table[] = {
|
|
{UUID_INIT(0xac6a4085, 0x0e82, 0x4c33,
|
|
0xbf, 0x98, 0x8e, 0xb8, 0xe1, 0x18, 0xb6, 0xc2)},
|
|
{}
|
|
};
|
|
|
|
MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(tee, client_id_table);
|
|
|
|
static struct tee_client_driver client_driver = {
|
|
.id_table = client_id_table,
|
|
.driver = {
|
|
.name = DRIVER_NAME,
|
|
.bus = &tee_bus_type,
|
|
.probe = client_probe,
|
|
.remove = client_remove,
|
|
},
|
|
};
|
|
|
|
static int __init client_init(void)
|
|
{
|
|
return driver_register(&client_driver.driver);
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
static void __exit client_exit(void)
|
|
{
|
|
driver_unregister(&client_driver.driver);
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
module_init(client_init);
|
|
module_exit(client_exit);
|
|
|
|
OP-TEE driver
|
|
=============
|
|
|
|
The OP-TEE driver handles OP-TEE [1] based TEEs. Currently it is only the ARM
|
|
TrustZone based OP-TEE solution that is supported.
|
|
|
|
Lowest level of communication with OP-TEE builds on ARM SMC Calling
|
|
Convention (SMCCC) [2], which is the foundation for OP-TEE's SMC interface
|
|
[3] used internally by the driver. Stacked on top of that is OP-TEE Message
|
|
Protocol [4].
|
|
|
|
OP-TEE SMC interface provides the basic functions required by SMCCC and some
|
|
additional functions specific for OP-TEE. The most interesting functions are:
|
|
|
|
- OPTEE_SMC_FUNCID_CALLS_UID (part of SMCCC) returns the version information
|
|
which is then returned by TEE_IOC_VERSION
|
|
|
|
- OPTEE_SMC_CALL_GET_OS_UUID returns the particular OP-TEE implementation, used
|
|
to tell, for instance, a TrustZone OP-TEE apart from an OP-TEE running on a
|
|
separate secure co-processor.
|
|
|
|
- OPTEE_SMC_CALL_WITH_ARG drives the OP-TEE message protocol
|
|
|
|
- OPTEE_SMC_GET_SHM_CONFIG lets the driver and OP-TEE agree on which memory
|
|
range to used for shared memory between Linux and OP-TEE.
|
|
|
|
The GlobalPlatform TEE Client API [5] is implemented on top of the generic
|
|
TEE API.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
RPC (Remote Procedure Call) are requests from secure world to kernel driver
|
|
or tee-supplicant. An RPC is identified by a special range of SMCCC return
|
|
values from OPTEE_SMC_CALL_WITH_ARG. RPC messages which are intended for the
|
|
kernel are handled by the kernel driver. Other RPC messages will be forwarded to
|
|
tee-supplicant without further involvement of the driver, except switching
|
|
shared memory buffer representation.
|
|
|
|
OP-TEE device enumeration
|
|
-------------------------
|
|
|
|
OP-TEE provides a pseudo Trusted Application: drivers/tee/optee/device.c in
|
|
order to support device enumeration. In other words, OP-TEE driver invokes this
|
|
application to retrieve a list of Trusted Applications which can be registered
|
|
as devices on the TEE bus.

|
AMD-TEE driver
|
|
==============
|
|
|
|
The AMD-TEE driver handles the communication with AMD's TEE environment. The
|
|
TEE environment is provided by AMD Secure Processor.
|
|
|
|
The AMD Secure Processor (formerly called Platform Security Processor or PSP)
|
|
is a dedicated processor that features ARM TrustZone technology, along with a
|
|
software-based Trusted Execution Environment (TEE) designed to enable
|
|
third-party Trusted Applications. This feature is currently enabled only for
|
|
APUs.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
At the lowest level (in x86), the AMD Secure Processor (ASP) driver uses the
|
|
CPU to PSP mailbox regsister to submit commands to the PSP. The format of the
|
|
command buffer is opaque to the ASP driver. It's role is to submit commands to
|
|
the secure processor and return results to AMD-TEE driver. The interface
|
|
between AMD-TEE driver and AMD Secure Processor driver can be found in [6].
|
|
|
|
The AMD-TEE driver packages the command buffer payload for processing in TEE.
|
|
The command buffer format for the different TEE commands can be found in [7].
|
|
|
|
The TEE commands supported by AMD-TEE Trusted OS are:
|
|
|
|
* TEE_CMD_ID_LOAD_TA - loads a Trusted Application (TA) binary into
|
|
TEE environment.
|
|
* TEE_CMD_ID_UNLOAD_TA - unloads TA binary from TEE environment.
|
|
* TEE_CMD_ID_OPEN_SESSION - opens a session with a loaded TA.
|
|
* TEE_CMD_ID_CLOSE_SESSION - closes session with loaded TA
|
|
* TEE_CMD_ID_INVOKE_CMD - invokes a command with loaded TA
|
|
* TEE_CMD_ID_MAP_SHARED_MEM - maps shared memory
|
|
* TEE_CMD_ID_UNMAP_SHARED_MEM - unmaps shared memory
|
|
|
|
AMD-TEE Trusted OS is the firmware running on AMD Secure Processor.
|
|
|
|
The AMD-TEE driver registers itself with TEE subsystem and implements the
|
|
following driver function callbacks:
|
|
|
|
* get_version - returns the driver implementation id and capability.
|
|
* open - sets up the driver context data structure.
|
|
* release - frees up driver resources.
|
|
* open_session - loads the TA binary and opens session with loaded TA.
|
|
* close_session - closes session with loaded TA and unloads it.
|
|
* invoke_func - invokes a command with loaded TA.
|
|
|
|
cancel_req driver callback is not supported by AMD-TEE.
|
|
|
|
The GlobalPlatform TEE Client API [5] can be used by the user space (client) to
|
|
talk to AMD's TEE. AMD's TEE provides a secure environment for loading, opening
|
|
a session, invoking commands and clossing session with TA.
