Hi,
This series brings libvirt the x86 TDX support.
* What's TDX? TDX stands for Trust Domain Extensions which isolates VMs from the virtual-machine manager (VMM)/hypervisor and any other software
on
the platform.
This patchset extends libvirt to support TDX, with which one can start a TDX guest from high level rather than running qemu directly.
* Misc As QEMU use a software emulated way to reset guest which isn't supported by TDX guest for security reason. We simulate reboot for TDX guest by kill and create a new one in FakeReboot framework.
Complete code can be found at [1].
* Test Tested with upstream qemu v10.0.0-1724-gf9a3def17b shutdown/reboot/reset with virsh shutdown/reboot trigger in guest shutdown with on_poweroff=destroy/restart reboot with on_reboot=destroy/restart
FYI when I have a guest crash libvirt logs
error : qemuMonitorJSONGuestPanicExtractInfo:638 : internal error: unknown panic info type 'tdx'
this is a new type of panic data structure from upstream QEMU that libvirt needs to handle in some way
Oh yes, thanks, will add processing on libvirt side.
I think it'll be useful to get the crash "message" string into the per-VM logfile at /var/log/libvirt/qemu/$GUEST.log
OK. I will add TDX part in qemuMonitorJSONGuestPanicExtractInfo(), then qemuProcessGuestPanicEventInfo() will be called to write to qemu log file. Please fix me if I understand wrong.
I wasted alot of time trying to understand why my guest was panicking until realizing I had mistakenly enabled SEPT #VE. The 'message' string in the panic event would have told me that immediately, but it was not visible, so I think its important to expose this msg in the logs out of the box.
Sure. Thanks Zhenzhong
