Is this a new issue, or has it always been there, and we just failed to notice it? BTW, I don't understand why FtwNotificationEvent() in "MdeModulePkg/Universal/Variable/RuntimeDxe/VariableDxe.c" has to mark the flash range as EFI_MEMORY_RUNTIME. I thought that this action belonged in the flash driver itself, and we do that already in MarkMemoryRangeForRuntimeAccess(), in file "OvmfPkg/QemuFlashFvbServicesRuntimeDxe/FwBlockService.c". The variable driver does not own the pflash chip (the pflash driver owns it), so I believe the variable driver shouldn't mess with the mapping attributes. Here's a suggestion -- Star, Eric, can you please comment? In the FtwNotificationEvent() function, after we get the memory descriptor for the pflash range, first check whether EFI_MEMORY_RUNTIME is already set. If it is, don't do anything; if it isn't, add the attribute. This should cause no observable change on any non-SEV platform, and it should remove the gDS->SetMemorySpaceAttributes() call for OVMF (where it breaks things for SEV). > After that, any access > to the flash will end up going through the encryption engine.

Runtime services *code* or runtime services *data*? Code must obviously be remain encrypted (otherwise we cannot execute it in SEV). Runtime Services Data should also be mapped as encrypted (it is normal RAM that is not used for guest<->hypervisor exchange). > hence we end up accessing the flash as encrypted when OS requests to update the variables. I don't understand the "hence" here; I don't see how the implication follows. runtime services code and data should be encrypted. Runtime MMIO should be un-encrypted. Ohh, wait, in MarkMemoryRangeForRuntimeAccess(), we use "EfiGcdMemoryTypeSystemMemory". I don't have a clue why that is a good idea. That should have been EfiGcdMemoryTypeMemoryMappedIo. ... Anyway, I think first we should go with the "check EFI_MEMORY_RUNTIME attribute before setting it", in FtwNotificationEvent(). > > A possible solution > --------------------- > To solve the issue, after QemuFlash is probed, I allocate an encrypted > buffer and initialize this buffer with the contents from the flash memory. > When SEV is enabled, we use newly allocated encrypted buffer in > FwInstance->FvBase instead of the original flash region.

No, this is neither safe, nor a desirable design. Safety: all accesses (via both pointers and FVB protocol members) that higher-level drives *think* go to the pflash chip must *actually* go to the pflash chip. Design: it had taken us years to get rid of various memory-emulated fake variable stores. They *all* suck in one way or another, with various obscure UEFI spec incompatibilities and corner cases. A strictly pflash-based varstore is not what we should compromise on. > With this > patch, I have verified that OS is able to update the runtime variable and > FC-28 installer is successfully able to complete the installation process. > > If you all agree with approach then I can rework any feedbacks and remove > the rfc tag from the patch.

I'd like to understand the following: (1) why does FtwNotificationEvent() set the EFI_MEMORY_RUNTIME attribute itself, for the pflash range? -- in my opinion, that belongs in the flash driver. (2) Whether Star and Eric agree with setting the EFI_MEMORY_RUNTIME attribute in FtwNotificationEvent() only if the attribute is not already present. (3) The implication that you describe, between runtime services/code being mapped encrypted, and restoring the C-bit failing. (4) Whether we should modify MarkMemoryRangeForRuntimeAccess() to install the range into GCD as MMIO. (I feel *very* uncomfortable about this, however; the current code has existed as-is for years, and regressions look very risky.) My strong preference would be a patch for (2).
