======================= Interfacing with OP-TEE ======================= Overview ======== NuttX supports basic interfacing with OP-TEE OS through three different transports: local network, RPMsg, and native Secure Monitor Calls (SMCs) on arm. Tasks can interface with the OP-TEE driver (and in turn with the OP-TEE OS) via IOCTLs on the TEE (``/dev/tee#``) character device. This interface should allow use-of/integration-with libteec, although this is not officially supported by NuttX, and is out of the scope of this guide. The driver supports opening and closing sessions, allocating and registering shared memory, and invoking functions on OP-TEE Trusted Applications (TAs). It does not (yet) support reverse direction commands (TA -> Normal World) to something like a TEE supplicant. Enabling the OP-TEE Driver ========================== The driver is enabled using one of: - ``CONFIG_DEV_OPTEE_LOCAL`` - ``CONFIG_DEV_OPTEE_RPMSG`` - ``CONFIG_DEV_OPTEE_SMC`` All of the above require also ``CONFIG_ALLOW_BSD_COMPONENTS`` and ``CONFIG_LIBC_MEMFD_SHMFS``, which in turn requires ``CONFIG_FS_SHMFS``. So, at a bare minimum, to enable the driver one would need something like the following: .. code-block:: CONFIG_ALLOW_BSD_COMPONENTS=y CONFIG_DEV_OPTEE_SMC=y CONFIG_FS_SHMFS=y CONFIG_LIBC_MEMFD_SHMFS=y Each implementation (local, RPMsg, or SMC) may have further dependencies (e.g. RPMsg requires ``CONFIG_NET_RPMSG`` and more) and may have further parameters to configure (e.g. RPMsg remote CPU name through ``CONFIG_OPTEE_REMOTE_CPU_NAME``). .. warning:: ``CONFIG_DEV_OPTEE_SMC`` has only been tested on arm64. Also, please note that in configurations with ``CONFIG_ARM*_DCACHE_DISABLE=y`` you might encounter issues with shared memory depending on the state of the data cache in Secure World. Successful registration of the driver can be verified by looking into ``/dev/tee0``. For instance, incompatibility with the TEE OS running in the system, will prevent the ``/dev/tee0`` character device from being registered. IOCTLs supported ================ All IOCTLs return negative error codes on failure. All of them return 0 on success unless otherwise specified (see ``TEE_IOC_SHM_ALLOC``). - ``TEE_IOC_VERSION`` : Query the version and capabilities of the TEE driver. - Use the ``struct tee_ioctl_version_data`` to get the version and capabilities. This driver supports OP-TEE so you should expect to receive only ``TEE_IMPL_ID_OPTEE`` in ``.impl_id`` and ``TEE_OPTEE_CAP_TZ`` in ``.impl_caps``. The driver is GlobalPlatform compliant, and you should always expect to receive ``TEE_GEN_CAP_GP | TEE_GEN_CAP_MEMREF_NULL`` in ``.gen_caps``. If using the SMC implementation, the driver supports also shared memory registration, so you can expect also ``TEE_GEN_CAP_REG_MEM`` in ``.gen_caps``. - ``TEE_IOC_OPEN_SESSION`` : Open a session with a Trusted Application. - Expects a ``struct tee_ioctl_buf_data`` pointer, pointing to a ``struct tee_ioctl_open_session_arg`` instance with at minimum, the ``.uuid`` set. You can typically use ``uuid_enc_be()`` to encode a ``uuid_t`` struct to the raw byte buffer expected in the ``.uuid`` field. After a successful call, you can expect to get a session identifier back in the ``.session`` field. - ``TEE_IOC_CLOSE_SESSION`` : Close a session with a Trusted Application. - Expects a pointer to a ``struct tee_ioctl_close_session_arg`` with the ``.session`` field set to the identifier of the session to close. - ``TEE_IOC_INVOKE`` : Invoke a function on a previously opened session to a Trusted Application. - Expects a ``struct tee_ioctl_buf_data`` pointer, pointing to a ``struct tee_ioctl_invoke_arg`` instance. You can use the ``TEE_IOCTL_PARAM_SIZE()`` macro to calculate the size of the variable-length array of ``struct tee_ioctl_param`` parameters in the invoke arguments struct. At minimum, the interface expects the fields ``.func``, ``.session``, ``.num_params``, and ``.params`` to be set. ``.cancel_id`` can be optionally set to enable later canceling of this command if needed. You might notice that ``struct tee_ioctl_param`` has rather obscure field names (``.a``, ``.b``, ``.c``). This can be improved with a union in the future, but until then, please refer to ``include/nuttx/tee.h`` for details. In short, for shared memory references, ``.a`` is the offset into the shared memory buffer, ``.b`` is the size of the buffer, and ``.c`` is the the shared memory identifier (``.addr`` field used in ``TEE_IOC_SHM_REGISTER``). - ``TEE_IOC_CANCEL`` : Cancel a currently invoked command. - Expects a ``struct tee_ioctl_cancel_arg`` pointer with the ``.session`` and ``.cancel_id`` fields set. - ``TEE_IOC_SHM_ALLOC`` : Allocate shared memory between the user space and the secure OS. - Expects a ``struct tee_ioctl_shm_alloc_data`` pointer with the ``.size`` field set, and ignoring the ``.flags`` field. Upon successful return, it returns the memory file descriptor one can use ``mmap()`` on (with ``MAP_SHARED``). It also returns an identifier for the allocation in ``.id``. - ``TEE_IOC_SHM_REGISTER`` : Register a shared memory reference with the secure OS. - Expects a pointer to a ``struct tee_ioctl_shm_register_data`` instance with all fields set except ``.id``. ``.flags`` can be any combination of ``TEE_SHM_REGISTER`` and ``TEE_SHM_SEC_REGISTER`` but not ``TEE_SHM_ALLOC``. ``TEE_SHM_REGISTER`` registers the memory with the driver for automatic cleanup (not freeing!) during ``/dev/tee#`` character device close. ``TEE_SHM_SEC_REGISTER`` registers the memory with the secure OS for later use in memrefs and is automatically de-registered during driver close if ``TEE_SHM_REGISTER`` is also specified. ``.addr`` shall point to the (user) memory to register and ``.size`` shall indicate its size. The identifier used to register shared memory with the secure OS is the value of the ``.addr`` field (what one needs to specify in ``tee_ioctl_param.c`` during a ``TEE_IOC_INVOKE``).
