From 4bd96a7a8185755b091233b16034c7436cbf57af Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Shane Wang Date: Wed, 10 Mar 2010 14:36:10 +0800 Subject: x86, tboot: Add support for S3 memory integrity protection This patch adds support for S3 memory integrity protection within an Intel(R) TXT launched kernel, for all kernel and userspace memory. All RAM used by the kernel and userspace, as indicated by memory ranges of type E820_RAM and E820_RESERVED_KERN in the e820 table, will be integrity protected. The MAINTAINERS file is also updated to reflect the maintainers of the TXT-related code. All MACing is done in tboot, based on a complexity analysis and tradeoff. v3: Compared with v2, this patch adds a check of array size in tboot.c, and a note to specify which c/s of tboot supports this kind of MACing in intel_txt.txt.
