Change the image verification policy for option ROM images to 0x00
(ALWAYS_EXECUTE).
While this may not be a good idea for physical platforms (see e.g.
<https://trmm.net/Thunderstrike>), on the QEMU platform the benefits seem
to outweigh the drawbacks:
- For QEMU's virtual PCI devices, and for some assigned PCI devices, the
option ROMs come from host-side files, which can never be rewritten from
within the guest. Since the host admin has full control over a guest
anyway, executing option ROMs that originate from host-side files
presents no additional threat to the guest.
- For assigned physical PCI devices with option ROMs, the argument is not
so clear-cut. In theory a setup could exist where:
- the host-side UEFI firmware (with DENY_EXECUTE_ON_SECURITY_VIOLATION)
rejects the option ROM of a malicious physical PCI device, but
- when the device is assigned to the guest, OVMF executes the option ROM
in the guest,
- the option ROM breaks out of the guest (using an assumed QEMU
vulnerability) and gains QEMU user privileges on the host.
However, in order to escalate as far as it would happen on the bare
metal with ALWAYS_EXECUTE (i.e., in order to gain firmware-level access
on the host), the malicious option ROM would have to break through (1)
QEMU, (2) traditional UID and GID based privilege separation on the
host, (3) sVirt (SELinux) on the host, (4) the host OS - host firmware
boundary. This is not impossible, but not likely enough to discourage
the use cases below.
- This patch makes it possible to use unsigned iPXE network drivers that
QEMU presents in the option ROMs of virtual NICs and assigned SR-IOV
VFs, even if Secure Boot is in User Mode or Deployed Mode.
- The change also makes it possible to execute unsigned, outdated
(revoked), or downright malicious option ROMs of assigned physical
devices in guests, for corporate, entertainment, academia, or security
research purposes.

Secure Boot support was originally addded to OvmfPkg on 2012-Mar-09, in
SVN r13093 (git 8cee3de7e9), titled
OvmfPkg: Enable secure-boot support when SECURE_BOOT_ENABLE==TRUE
At that time the image verification policies in
SecurityPkg/SecurityPkg.dec were:
- option ROM image: 0x00 (ALWAYS_EXECUTE)
- removable media image: 0x05 (QUERY_USER_ON_SECURITY_VIOLATION)
- fixed media image: 0x05 (QUERY_USER_ON_SECURITY_VIOLATION)
The author of SVN r13093 apparently didn't want to depend on the
SecurityPkg defaults for the latter two image origins, plus the
ALWAYS_EXECUTE policy for option ROM images must have been deemed too lax.
For this reason SVN r13093 immediately spelled out 0x05
(QUERY_USER_ON_SECURITY_VIOLATION) within OvmfPkg for all three image
origins.
Fast forward to 2013-Aug-28: policy 0x05
(QUERY_USER_ON_SECURITY_VIOLATION) had been forbidden in the UEFI spec,
and SVN r14607 (git db44ea6c4e) reflected this in the source code:
- The policies for the latter two image origins were switched from 0x05 to
0x04 (DENY_EXECUTE_ON_SECURITY_VIOLATION) in SecurityPkg,
- the patch changed the default policy for option ROM images too, from
0x00 (ALWAYS_EXECUTE) to 0x04 (DENY_EXECUTE_ON_SECURITY_VIOLATION),
- any other client DSC files, including OvmfPkg's, underwent a whole-sale
0x05 (QUERY_USER_ON_SECURITY_VIOLATION) -> 0x04
(DENY_EXECUTE_ON_SECURITY_VIOLATION) replacement too.
The practical result of that patch for OvmfPkg was that the explicit 0x04
settings would equal the strict SecurityPkg defaults exactly.
And that's what we have today: the "override the default values from
SecurityPkg" comments in OvmfPkg's DSC files are stale, in practice.
It is extremely unlikely that SecurityPkg would change the defaults from
0x04 (DENY_EXECUTE_ON_SECURITY_VIOLATION) any time in the future, so let's
just inherit those in OvmfPkg.

This patch complements the previous one, "OvmfPkg: use relaxed AP SMM
synchronization mode". While that patch focuses on the case when the SMI
is raised synchronously by the BSP, on the BSP:
BSPHandler() [UefiCpuPkg/PiSmmCpuDxeSmm/MpService.c]
SmmWaitForApArrival() [UefiCpuPkg/PiSmmCpuDxeSmm/MpService.c]
IsSyncTimerTimeout() [UefiCpuPkg/PiSmmCpuDxeSmm/SyncTimer.c]
this patch concerns itself with the case when it is one of the APs that
raises (and sees delivered) the synchronous SMI:
APHandler() [UefiCpuPkg/PiSmmCpuDxeSmm/MpService.c]
IsSyncTimerTimeout() [UefiCpuPkg/PiSmmCpuDxeSmm/SyncTimer.c]
Namely, in APHandler() the AP waits for the BSP to enter SMM regardless of
PcdCpuSmmSyncMode, for PcdCpuSmmApSyncTimeout microseconds (the default
value is 1 second). If the BSP doesn't show up in SMM within that
interval, then the AP brings it in with a directed SMI, and waits for the
BSP again for PcdCpuSmmApSyncTimeout microseconds.
Although during boot services, SmmControl2DxeTrigger() is only called by
the BSP, at runtime the OS can invoke runtime services from an AP (it can
even be forced with "taskset -c 1 efibootmgr"). Because on QEMU
SmmControl2DxeTrigger() only raises the SMI for the calling processor (BSP
and AP alike), the first interval above times out invariably in such cases
-- the BSP never shows up before the AP calls it in.
In order to mitigate the performance penalty, decrease
PcdCpuSmmApSyncTimeout to one tenth of its default value: 100 ms. (For
comparison, Vlv2TbltDevicePkg sets 1 ms.)
NOTE: once QEMU becomes capable of synchronous broadcast SMIs, this patch
and the previous one ("OvmfPkg: use relaxed AP SMM synchronization mode")
should be reverted, and SmmControl2DxeTrigger() should be adjusted
instead.

Port 0xb2 on QEMU only sends an SMI to the currently executing processor.
The SMI handler, however, and in particular SmmWaitForApArrival, currently
expects that SmmControl2DxeTrigger triggers an SMI IPI on all processors
rather than just the BSP. Thus all SMM invocations loop for a second (the
default value of PcdCpuSmmApSyncTimeout) before SmmWaitForApArrival sends
another SMI IPI to the APs.
With the default SmmCpuFeaturesLib, 32-bit machines must broadcast SMIs
because 32-bit machines must reset the MTRRs on each entry to system
management modes (they have no SMRRs). However, our virtual platform
does not have problems with cacheability of SMRAM, so we can use "directed"
SMIs instead. To do this, just set gUefiCpuPkgTokenSpaceGuid.PcdCpuSmmSyncMode
to 1 (aka SmmCpuSyncModeRelaxedAp). This fixes SMM on multiprocessor virtual
machines.

Explanation from Michael Kinney:
This PCD allows a platform to provide PlatformSmmBspElection() in a
platform specific SmmCpuPlatformHookLib instance to decide which CPU
gets elected to be the BSP in each SMI.
The SmmCpuPlatformHookLibNull [instance] always returns EFI_NOT_READY
for that function, which makes the module behave the same as the PCD
being set to FALSE.
The default is TRUE, so the platform lib is always called, so a platform
developer can implement the hook function and does not have to also
change a PCD setting for the hook function to be active.
A platform that wants to eliminate the call to the hook function
[altogether] can set the PCD to FALSE.
So for OVMF, I think it makes sense to set this PCD to FALSE in the DSC
file.

Although neither LocalApicLib instance is suitable for runtime DXE drivers
(because they access the APIC at the physical address retrieved from
either MSR_IA32_APIC_BASE_ADDRESS or PcdCpuLocalApicBaseAddress), they are
suitable for SMM drivers -- SMM drivers are not influenced by the runtime
OS's virtual address map.
PiSmmCpuDxeSmm links against LocalApicLib. 64-bit Linux guests tend to
enable x2apic mode even in simple VCPU configurations (e.g., 4 sockets, 1
core/socket, 1 thread/core):
[ 0.028173] x2apic enabled
If PiSmmCpuDxeSmm was linked with the BaseXApicLib instance (i.e., with no
x2apic support), then the next runtime service call that is backed by an
SMM driver triggers the following ASSERT in BaseXApicLib (because the
latter notices that x2apic has been enabled, which it doesn't support):
ASSERT .../UefiCpuPkg/Library/BaseXApicLib/BaseXApicLib.c(263):
ApicBaseMsr.Bits.Extd == 0
It is reasonable to give all LocalApicLib client modules in OVMF the same
level of x2apic support, hence resolve LocalApicLib globally to
BaseXApicX2ApicLib. This will not be conditional on -D SMM_REQUIRE,
because BaseXApicX2ApicLib is compatible with BaseXApicLib in any
environment where the latter can be used.

During DXE, drivers save data in the LockBox. A save operation is layered
as follows:
- The unprivileged driver wishing to store data in the LockBox links
against the "MdeModulePkg/Library/SmmLockBoxLib/SmmLockBoxDxeLib.inf"
library instance.
The library allows the unprivileged driver to format requests for the
privileged SMM LockBox driver (see below), and to parse responses.
We apply this resolution for DXE_DRIVER modules.
- The privileged SMM LockBox driver is built from
"MdeModulePkg/Universal/LockBox/SmmLockBox/SmmLockBox.inf". This driver
has module type DXE_SMM_DRIVER and can access SMRAM.
The driver delegates command parsing and response formatting to
"MdeModulePkg/Library/SmmLockBoxLib/SmmLockBoxSmmLib.inf".
Therefore we include this DXE_SMM_DRIVER in the build, and apply said
resolution specifically to it.
(Including the driver requires us to resolve a few of other library
classes for DXE_SMM_DRIVER modules.)
- In PEI, the S3 Resume PEIM (UefiCpuPkg/Universal/Acpi/S3Resume2Pei)
retrieves data from the LockBox. It is capable of searching SMRAM
itself.
We resolve LockBoxLib to
"MdeModulePkg/Library/SmmLockBoxLib/SmmLockBoxPeiLib.inf" specifically
for this one PEIM.

"MdeModulePkg/Core/PiSmmCore/PiSmmIpl.inf" (a DXE_RUNTIME_DRIVER)
implements the SMM Initial Program Loader. It produces
EFI_SMM_BASE2_PROTOCOL and EFI_SMM_COMMUNICATION_PROTOCOL, relying on:
- EFI_SMM_ACCESS2_PROTOCOL
(provided by OvmfPkg/SmmAccess/SmmAccess2Dxe.inf),
- EFI_SMM_CONTROL2_PROTOCOL
(provided by OvmfPkg/SmmControl2Dxe/SmmControl2Dxe.inf).
(The SMM IPL also depends on EFI_SMM_CONFIGURATION_PROTOCOL_GUID, but this
dependency is not enforced in the entry point. A protocol notify callback
is registered instead, hence we can delay providing that protocol via the
PiSmmCpuDxeSmm driver that is (to be) imported from UefiCpuPkg/.)
The SMM IPL loads the SMM core into SMRAM and executes it from there.
Therefore we add the SMM core to the build as well.
For the SMM core, a number of library classes need to be resolved.
Furthermore, each FDF file must provide the GenFds.py BaseTools utility
with a build rule for SMM_CORE; we copy the DXE_CORE's rule.

"MdeModulePkg/Library/SmmLockBoxLib/SmmLockBoxPeiLib.inf" is the
LockBoxLib instance with SMRAM access for the PEI phase.
Said library instance must, and can, access the LockBox data in SMRAM
directly if it is invoked before SMBASE relocation / SMI handler
installation. In that case, it only needs PEI_SMM_ACCESS_PPI from the
platform, and it doesn't depend on EFI_PEI_SMM_COMMUNICATION_PPI.
OVMF satisfies the description in SVN r18823 ("MdeModulePkg:
SmmLockBoxPeiLib: work without EFI_PEI_SMM_COMMUNICATION_PPI"): in OVMF,
only S3Resume2Pei links against SmmLockBoxPeiLib.
Therefore, introduce a PEIM that produces the PEI_SMM_ACCESS_PPI
interface, enabling SmmLockBoxPeiLib to work; we can omit including
"UefiCpuPkg/PiSmmCommunication/PiSmmCommunicationPei.inf".
The load / installation order of S3Resume2Pei and SmmAccessPei is
indifferent. SmmAccessPei produces the gEfiAcpiVariableGuid HOB during its
installation (which happens during PEI), but S3Resume2Pei accesses the HOB
only when the DXE IPL calls its S3RestoreConfig2 PPI member, as last act
of PEI.
MCH_SMRAM_D_LCK and MCH_ESMRAMC_T_EN are masked out the way they are, in
SmmAccessPeiEntryPoint() and SmramAccessOpen() respectively, in order to
prevent VS20xx from warning about the (otherwise fully intentional)
truncation in the UINT8 casts. (Warnings reported by Michael Kinney.)

PlatformPei calls GetSystemMemorySizeBelow4gb() in three locations:
- PublishPeiMemory(): on normal boot, the permanent PEI RAM is installed
so that it ends with the RAM below 4GB,
- QemuInitializeRam(): on normal boot, memory resource descriptor HOBs are
created for the RAM below 4GB; plus MTRR attributes are set
(independently of S3 vs. normal boot)
- MemMapInitialization(): an MMIO resource descriptor HOB is created for
PCI resource allocation, on normal boot, starting at max(RAM below 4GB,
2GB).
The first two of these is adjusted for the configured TSEG size, if
PcdSmmSmramRequire is set:
- In PublishPeiMemory(), the permanent PEI RAM is kept under TSEG.
- In QemuInitializeRam(), we must keep the DXE out of TSEG.
One idea would be to simply trim the [1MB .. LowerMemorySize] memory
resource descriptor HOB, leaving a hole for TSEG in the memory space
map.
The SMM IPL will however want to massage the caching attributes of the
SMRAM range that it loads the SMM core into, with
gDS->SetMemorySpaceAttributes(), and that won't work on a hole. So,
instead of trimming this range, split the TSEG area off, and report it
as a cacheable reserved memory resource.
Finally, since reserved memory can be allocated too, pre-allocate TSEG
in InitializeRamRegions(), after QemuInitializeRam() returns. (Note that
this step alone does not suffice without the resource descriptor HOB
trickery: if we omit that, then the DXE IPL PEIM fails to load and start
the DXE core.)
- In MemMapInitialization(), the start of the PCI MMIO range is not
affected.
We choose the largest option (8MB) for the default TSEG size. Michael
Kinney pointed out that the SMBASE relocation in PiSmmCpuDxeSmm consumes
SMRAM proportionally to the number of CPUs. From the three options
available, he reported that 8MB was both necessary and sufficient for the
SMBASE relocation to succeed with 255 CPUs:

If OVMF was built with -D SMM_REQUIRE, that implies that the runtime OS is
not trusted and we should defend against it tampering with the firmware's
data.
One such datum is the PEI firmware volume (PEIFV). Normally PEIFV is
decompressed on the first boot by SEC, then the OS preserves it across S3
suspend-resume cycles; at S3 resume SEC just reuses the originally
decompressed PEIFV.
However, if we don't trust the OS, then SEC must decompress PEIFV from the
pristine flash every time, lest we execute OS-injected code or work with
OS-injected data.
Due to how FVMAIN_COMPACT is organized, we can't decompress just PEIFV;
the decompression brings DXEFV with itself, plus it uses a temporary
output buffer and a scratch buffer too, which even reach above the end of
the finally installed DXEFV. For this reason we must keep away a
non-malicious OS from DXEFV too, plus the memory up to
PcdOvmfDecomprScratchEnd.
The delay introduced by the LZMA decompression on S3 resume is negligible.
If -D SMM_REQUIRE is not specified, then PcdSmmSmramRequire remains FALSE
(from the DEC file), and then this patch has no effect (not counting some
changed debug messages).
If QEMU doesn't support S3 (or the user disabled it on the QEMU command
line), then this patch has no effect also.

The DecompressMemFvs() function in "OvmfPkg/Sec/SecMain.c" uses more
memory, temporarily, than what PEIFV and DXEFV will ultimately need.
First, it uses an output buffer for decompression, second, the
decompression itself needs a scratch buffer (and this scratch buffer is
the highest area that SEC uses).
DecompressMemFvs() used to be called on normal boots only (ie. not on S3
resume), which is why the decompression output buffer and the scratch
buffer were allowed to scribble over RAM. However, we'll soon start to
worry during S3 resume that the runtime OS might tamper with the
pre-decompressed PEIFV, and we'll decompress the firmware volumes on S3
resume too, from pristine flash. For this we'll need to know the end of
the scratch buffer in advance, so we can prepare a non-malicious OS for
it.
Calculate the end of the scratch buffer statically in the FDF files, and
assert in DecompressMemFvs() that the runtime decompression will match it.

BaseExtractGuidedSectionLib uses a table at the static physical address
PcdGuidedExtractHandlerTableAddress, and modules that are linked against
BaseExtractGuidedSectionLib are expected to work together on that table.
Namely, some modules can register handlers for GUIDed sections, some other
modules can decode such sections with the pre-registered handlers. The
table carries persistent information between these modules.
BaseExtractGuidedSectionLib checks a table signature whenever it is used
(by whichever module that is linked against it), and at the first use
(identified by a signature mismatch) it initializes the table.
One of the module types that BaseExtractGuidedSectionLib can be used with
is SEC, if the SEC module in question runs with the platform's RAM already
available.
In such cases the question emerges whether the initial contents of the RAM
(ie. contents that predate the very first signature check) can be trusted.
Normally RAM starts out with all zeroes (leading to a signature mismatch
on the first check); however a malicious runtime OS can populate the area
with some payload, then force a warm platform reset or an S3
suspend-and-resume. In such cases the signature check in the SEC module
might not fire, and ExtractGuidedSectionDecode() might run code injected
by the runtime OS, as part of SEC (ie. with high privileges).
Therefore we clear the handler table in SEC.
See also git commit ad43bc6b2e (SVN rev 15433) -- this patch secures the
(d) and (e) code paths examined in that commit. Furthermore, a
non-malicious runtime OS will observe no change in behavior; see case (c)
in said commit.

In preparation for introducing an SMM interface to this driver, move the
following traits to separate files, so that we can replace them in the new
SMM INF file:
- Protocol installations. The SMM driver will install protocol interfaces
in the SMM protocol database, using SMM services.
- Virtual address change handler and pointer conversions. SMM drivers run
with physical mappings and pointers must not be converted.
There are further restrictions and changes for an SMM driver, but the rest
of the code either complies with those already, or will handle the changes
transparently. For example:
- SMM drivers have access to both UEFI and SMM protocols in their entry
points (see the PI spec 1.4, "1.7 SMM Driver Initialization"),
- MemoryAllocationLib has an SMM instance that serves allocation requests
with the gSmst->SmmAllocatePool() service transparently, allocating
runtime-marked SMRAM.

Currently the EFI_FW_VOL_INSTANCE and ESAL_FWB_GLOBAL structures declare
the following entries as arrays, with two entries each:
- EFI_FW_VOL_INSTANCE.FvBase[2]
- ESAL_FWB_GLOBAL.FvInstance[2]
In every case, the entry at subscript zero is meant as "physical address",
while the entry at subscript one is meant as "virtual address" -- a
pointer to the same object. The virtual address entry is originally
initialized to the physical address, and then it is converted to the
virtual mapping in FvbVirtualddressChangeEvent().
Functions that (a) read the listed fields and (b) run both before and
after the virtual address change event -- since this is a runtime DXE
driver -- derive the correct array subscript by calling the
EfiGoneVirtual() function from UefiRuntimeLib.
The problem with the above infrastructure is that it's entirely
superfluous.
EfiGoneVirtual() "knows" whether EFI has gone virtual only because the
UefiRuntimeLib constructor registers the exact same kind of virtual
address change callback, and the callback flips a static variabe to TRUE,
and EfiGoneVirtual() queries that static variable.
In effect this means for QemuFlashFvbServicesRuntimeDxe: "when there is a
virtual address change, convert the entries with subscript one from
physical to virtual, and from then on use the entries with subscript one".
This would only make sense if QemuFlashFvbServicesRuntimeDxe ever needed
the original (physical) addresses (ie. the entries with subscript zero)
after the virtual address change, but that is not the case.
Replace the arrays with single elements. The subscript zero elements
simply disappear, and the single elements take the role of the prior
subscript one elements.
