Subject: [ANNOUNCE] PUCK Notes - 2023.06.07 - pKVM on x86
Date: Tue, 13 Jun 2023 10:33:05 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230613173305.1935490-1-seanjc@google.com> (raw)
Apologies for the slow update, I was waiting for the recording to become
available and was OOO Th/F last week.
Key Takeaways:
- Primary use case is to secure workloads that process/handle sensitive
biometric data (e.g. fingerprints, face authentication).
- SEAM is a poor fit as it doesn't provide mechanisms to restrict access to
non-DRAM "memory", e.g. access to the hardware devices that provide biometric
data. And there's no line of sight to an AMD equivalent.
- pKVM support requires few changes outside of KVM (though the changes to KVM
are extensive).
Next Steps:
- Re-assess in 3-4 weeks after people have had a chance to read through and
review the RFC patches.
