*.hx: Remove all the STEXI/ETEXI blocks
We no longer generate texinfo from the hxtool input files,
so delete all the STEXI/ETEXI blocks.
This commit was created using the following Perl one-liner:
perl -i -n -e '$suppress = 1,next if /^STEXI/;$suppress=0,next if /^ETEXI/; print if !$suppress;' *.hx

Using the @var{data} -parameter is insecure unless the sensitive data is encrypted. - -The sensitive data can be provided in raw format (the default), or base64. -When encoded as JSON, the raw format only supports valid UTF-8 characters, -so base64 is recommended for sending binary data. QEMU will convert from -which ever format is provided to the format it needs internally. eg, an -RBD password can be provided in raw format, even though it will be base64 -encoded when passed onto the RBD sever. - -For added protection, it is possible to encrypt the data associated with -a secret using the AES-256-CBC cipher. Use of encryption is indicated -by providing the @var{keyid} and @var{iv} parameters. The @var{keyid} -parameter provides the ID of a previously defined secret that contains -the AES-256 decryption key. This key should be 32-bytes long and be -base64 encoded. The @var{iv} parameter provides the random initialization -vector used for encryption of this particular secret and should be a -base64 encrypted string of the 16-byte IV. - -The simplest (insecure) usage is to provide the secret inline - -@example - - # @value{qemu_system} -object secret,id=sec0,data=letmein,format=raw - -@end example - -The simplest secure usage is to provide the secret via a file - - # printf "letmein" > mypasswd.txt - # @value{qemu_system} -object secret,id=sec0,file=mypasswd.txt,format=raw - -For greater security, AES-256-CBC should be used. To illustrate usage, -consider the openssl command line tool which can encrypt the data. Note -that when encrypting, the plaintext must be padded to the cipher block -size (32 bytes) using the standard PKCS#5/6 compatible padding algorithm. - -First a master key needs to be created in base64 encoding: - -@example - # openssl rand -base64 32 > key.b64 - # KEY=$(base64 -d key.b64 | hexdump -v -e '/1 "%02X"') -@end example - -Each secret to be encrypted needs to have a random initialization vector -generated. These do not need to be kept secret - -@example - # openssl rand -base64 16 > iv.b64 - # IV=$(base64 -d iv.b64 | hexdump -v -e '/1 "%02X"') -@end example - -The secret to be defined can now be encrypted, in this case we're -telling openssl to base64 encode the result, but it could be left -as raw bytes if desired. - -@example - # SECRET=$(printf "letmein" | - openssl enc -aes-256-cbc -a -K $KEY -iv $IV) -@end example - -When launching QEMU, create a master secret pointing to @code{key.b64} -and specify that to be used to decrypt the user password. Pass the -contents of @code{iv.b64} to the second secret - -@example - # @value{qemu_system} \ - -object secret,id=secmaster0,format=base64,file=key.b64 \ - -object secret,id=sec0,keyid=secmaster0,format=base64,\ - data=$SECRET,iv=$(<iv.b64) -@end example - -@item -object sev-guest,id=@var{id},cbitpos=@var{cbitpos},reduced-phys-bits=@var{val},[sev-device=@var{string},policy=@var{policy},handle=@var{handle},dh-cert-file=@var{file},session-file=@var{file}] - -Create a Secure Encrypted Virtualization (SEV) guest object, which can be used -to provide the guest memory encryption support on AMD processors. - -When memory encryption is enabled, one of the physical address bit (aka the -C-bit) is utilized to mark if a memory page is protected. The @option{cbitpos} -is used to provide the C-bit position. The C-bit position is Host family dependent -hence user must provide this value. On EPYC, the value should be 47. - -When memory encryption is enabled, we loose certain bits in physical address space. -The @option{reduced-phys-bits} is used to provide the number of bits we loose in -physical address space. Similar to C-bit, the value is Host family dependent. -On EPYC, the value should be 5. - -The @option{sev-device} provides the device file to use for communicating with -the SEV firmware running inside AMD Secure Processor. The default device is -'/dev/sev'. If hardware supports memory encryption then /dev/sev devices are -created by CCP driver. - -The @option{policy} provides the guest policy to be enforced by the SEV firmware -and restrict what configuration and operational commands can be performed on this -guest by the hypervisor.
