[PATCH v9 0/6] Add TPM support to SeaBIOS
by Stefan Berger
This is a repost of a series of patches providing TPM support to SeaBIOS.
As an addition, this patch series now works on the Acer C720 Chromebook
with limitations (S3 not getting invoked; no logging into TCPA table).
The patch series cleanly applies to a checkout of a1ac8861.
The following set of patches add TPM and Trusted Computing support to SeaBIOS.
In particular the patches add:
- a TPM driver for the Qemu's TPM TIS emulation
- Support for initialzation of the TPM
- init of TCPA logging table
- Support for the TCG BIOS extensions (1ah handler [ah = 0xbb])
(used by trusted grub; http://trousers.sourceforge.net/grub.html)
- Static Root of Trusted for Measurement (SRTM) support
- Support for S3 resume (sends command to TPM upon resume)
- Support for sending control messages from the OS to the BIOS
and have the BIOS control certain life-cycle aspects of the TPM
following those messages
- TPM-specific menu for controlling aspects of the TPM
All implementations necessarily follow specifications.
When all patches are applied the following services are available
- SSDT ACPI table for TPM support
- initialization of the TPM upon VM start and S3 resume
- Static root of trust for measurements (SRTM) that measures (some) data
of SeaBIOS in TCPA ACPI table
- 1ah interrupt handler offering APIs for measuring and sending commands to
the TPM (trusted grub uses them)
- With an extensions to QEMU's TPM SSDT: The root user in Linux (for example)
can send the above mentioned control messages to the BIOS and have the
BIOS act upon them
- User menu for controlling aspects of the state of the TPM
Stefan Berger (6):
Add an implementation of a TPM TIS driver
Implementation of the TCG BIOS extensions
Support for BIOS interrupt handler
Add 'measurement' code to the BIOS
Support for TPM Physical Presence Interface
Add a menu for TPM control

SeaBIOS not fully working when compiled on FreeBSD
by Roger Pau Monné
Hello,
I've compiled SeaBIOS on FreeBSD with gcc48, and although the build
process succeeds, the resulting binary doesn't fully work. Most
functions seem to work fine but there are some int15h functions that
don't work properly (ie: they return invalid values).
I've compiled SeaBIOS with CONFIG_DEBUG_LEVEL=10 and got the following
output (this is from the Xen console):
[...]
(d4) enter handle_1a:
(d4) a=00000200 b=00000000 c=00001725 d=00003400 ds=4cf0 es=9eb8 ss=dd00

SUBMITTING YOUR PROPOSAL
===============
Abstracts due: May 1, 2015
Please submit a short abstract (~150 words) describing your presentation
proposal. Slots vary in length up to 45 minutes. Also include in your
proposal
the proposal type -- one of:
- technical talk
- end-user talk
Submit your proposal here:
http://events.linuxfoundation.org/cfp
Please only use the categories "presentation" and "panel discussion"
You will receive a notification whether or not your presentation proposal
was accepted by May 29, 2015.
Speakers will receive a complimentary pass for the event. In the instance
that your submission has multiple presenters, only the primary speaker for a
proposal will receive a complementary event pass. For panel
discussions, all
panelists will receive a complimentary event pass.
TECHNICAL TALKS
A good technical talk should not just report on what has happened over
the last year; it should present a concrete problem and how it impacts
the user and/or developer community. Whenever applicable, focus on
work that needs to be done, difficulties that haven't yet been solved,
and on decisions that other developers should be aware of. Summarizing
recent developments is okay but it should not be more than a small
portion of the overall talk.
END-USER TALKS
One of the big challenges as developers is to know what, where and how
people actually use our software. We will reserve a few slots for end
users talking about their deployment challenges and achievements.
If you are using KVM in production you are encouraged submit a speaking
proposal. Simply mark it as an end-user talk. As an end user, this is a
unique opportunity to get your input to developers.
HANDS-ON / BOF SESSIONS
We will reserve some time for people to get together and discuss
strategic decisions as well as other topics that are best solved within
smaller groups.
These sessions will be announced during the event. If you are interested
in organizing such a session, please add it to the list at
http://www.linux-kvm.org/page/KVM_Forum_2015_BOF
Let people you think might be interested know about it, and encourage
them to add their names to the wiki page as well. Please try to
add your ideas to the list before KVM Forum starts.
PANEL DISCUSSIONS
If you are proposing a panel discussion, please make sure that you list
all of your potential panelists in your abstract. We will request full
biographies if a panel is accepted.
===============

[RFH] Using the memory error detector AddressSanitizer (ASan)

Dear SeaBIOS folks,
my goal is to build SeaBIOS with the “fast memory error detector”
AddressSanitizer (ASan) [1].
As I did not find a way to override `CFLAGS` for building SeaBIOS, as
they are defined with `:=` in `Makefile`, I added `-fsanitize=address`
directly to `COMMONCFLAGS`.

This issue doesn't seem like a vgabios issue. It doesn't appear that
the program calls the vgabios and the program seems to function
correctly when changing non-vgabios settings. So, it appears that
something unknown is the root cause of the intermittent screen
corruption.

Unfortunately, it's very difficult to troubleshoot boot issues without
access to the debug log. SeaBIOS currently only supports access to
the debug log via a traditional serial port or via the "cbmem" in
memory log. The cbmem log is only applicable if one can boot the
machine to an OS that can run the cbmem tool.
You could try taking the USB/CD image and running it on QEMU - just to
verify that SeaBIOS doesn't have an issue with the image. (Though
it's unlikely that is the cause.)
Also, some of the more recent chromebooks have been shipping with
SeaVGABIOS instead of the traditional Intel vgabios. This may confuse
some kernels - you may want to verify that the machine has truly hung
(as opposed to the video just hanging).
Another option would be to try booting a Linux image - access to the
cbmem console would be helpful even if booting Linux is not the goal.

Extending USB device support
by Parker, John M
Hi
I took some time and developed a serial console over USB (FTDI) for SeaBIOS.
To make it work, I put in a few changes to the core USB module to allow my USB serial port driver to patch itself in to the USB stack.
These changes implement a general mechanism for USB device driver extension that might have other applications, so I thought I would start a dialog on the subject.
Here is a summary of the change (about 5 lines removed and 20 lines added):
1) defined a list structure in usb.h
struct usb_driver_list_s
{
struct usb_driver_list_s *next; /* the list pointer */
int (*driver_detect)(struct usbdevice_s *usbdev, /
struct usb_device_descriptor *dinfo); /* a function pointer */
} ;
2) Added a static list head pointer to usb.c
static struct usb_driver_list_s *usb_driver_list;
3) Added an API function to populate the list with external usb drivers
add_usb_device_handler(struct usb_driver_list_s *add_driver)
3) Modified configure_usb_device() to make it look for external drivers
a) relocated the trap for an unhandled device
b) call the handler init functions in the list until one indicates acceptance

Unfortunately, this feature isn't currently available. I'm not aware of anyone working on it.
There are two parts to getting the above to work: forwarding keyboard and video over serial, and USB serial support.
In the past, we've used sgabios ( https://code.google.com/p/sgabios/ ) to provide keyboard/video over traditional serial ports. However, sgabios wont work with USB serial ports (or even some PCI serial
adapters) and it's unlikely that support will be added.
Getting USB serial to work is a bit of a pain because there does not appear to be a standard for initializing USB serial adapters. One possibility would be to target only one device (and in particular, a device that something like a Beagle Bone Black could emulate would be very useful).
So, to get the above to work, I think it would require both adding sgabios functionality into SeaBIOS and adding USB serial support into SeaBIOS.

To eliminate the BSDs as the source of the problem, I just tried booting an
ISO of Memtest86 (which boots v4.3 when UEFI is not present) and got the
same results. The bootloader comes up, but as soon as it tries to actually
load the program, the machine locks up ("Loading memtest...ready." and then
lock up).
If it makes any difference, this Pixel 2 has 16Gb of RAM.
