I've had a further idea on this.
You could add an entirely new PEIM just for this. The entry point
function of the PEIM would check for SEV, decrypt the TPM range if SEV
were active, and then install gOvmfTpmMmioAccessiblePpiGuid
(unconditionally). The exit status of the PEIM would always be
EFI_ABORTED, because there would be no need to keep the PEIM resident.
The new PEIM would have a DEPEX on gEfiPeiMemoryDiscoveredPpiGuid, to
make sure that potential page table splitting for the potential MMIO
range decryption could be satisfied from permanent PEI RAM.
The new PEIM would be included in the DSC and FDF files of the usual
three OVMF platforms, and in the Bhyve platform -- dependent on the
TPM_ENABLE build flag.
There are several advantages to such a separate PEIM:
- For Bhyve, the update is minimal. Just include one line in each of the
FDF and the DSC files. No need to customize an existent
platform-specific PEIM, no code duplication between two PlatformPei modules.
- The new PEIM would depend on the TPM_ENABLE build flag, so it would
only be included in the firmware binaries if and only if Tcg2ConfigPei
were. No useless PPI installation would occur in the absence of TPM_ENABLE.
- No need to check PcdTpmBaseAddress for nullity in the new PEIM, before
the decryption, as TPM_ENABLE guarantees (on IA32/X64) that the PCD
already has the right value.
- The new logic would be properly ordered between PlatformPei and
Tcg2ConfigPei, namely due to the use of two such PPI GUIDs in DEPEXes
that actually make sense. PlatformPei -> TPM MMIO decryptor PEIM ordered
via "memory discovered" (needed for potential page table splitting), TPM
MMIO decryptor PEIM -> Tcg2ConfigPei ordered via "TPM MMIO decrypted".
You could place the new PEIM at:
OvmfPkg/Tcg/TpmMmioSevDecryptPei
If you haven't lost your patience with me yet, I'd really appreciate if
you could investigate this!
Thanks!
