[PATCH v8 3/3] firmware: socfpga-fcs: add Altera SoCFPGA FCS driver with SDOS feature

From: hang . suan . wang

Date: Thu Oct 29 2026 - 01:16:03 EST


From: Hang Suan Wang <hang.suan.wang@xxxxxxxxxx>

The Secure Device Manager (SDM) is a hardware security manager in Altera
SoCFPGA. It provides the Secure Data Object Store (SDOS), a service for
encrypting and decrypting data.

This patch adds the Altera SoCFPGA Crypto Service (FCS) driver, allowing
non-secure Linux software to request SDOS operations. Requests pass through
the SoCFPGA service layer (svc) to ARM Trusted Firmware (ATF), which
forwards permitted requests to the SDM.

The SDOS protects data at rest: the SDM encrypts and decrypts using a key
derived from a device-unique SDOS root key plus an SDM-generated IV, so
the host never handles raw key material or IVs. It only submits plaintext
it already owns and receives authenticated ciphertext objects managed by
the SDM. A primary use case is installing operational keys without ever
appearing in cleartext.

The driver is a standalone module and describes no hardware of its own.
It binds by name to the "stratix10-fcs" platform device registered by
stratix10-svc, so no device-tree node is required. SDOS requests go to
the SDM through the stratix10-svc asynchronous SIP SMC path using
service-layer memory pool buffers that the SDM can reach via physical or
SMMU-remapped addresses. Userspace talks to /dev/socfpga-fcs via ioctl
and sysfs exposes atf_version.

For encryption the SDM returns a structured object (header, ciphertext,
HMAC). For decryption the SDM validates the HMAC and enforces the 64-bit
owner ID from the object header so only the creator can decrypt it.

The user opens one SDM crypto session, sends one or more commands such
as SDOS, and closes the session when finished. The session stays open
across those commands. Each command takes priv->lock, so only one
request is in flight at a time. If the file that owns the session is
closed, including on process exit, the driver closes the session.

+===================================
+Altera SoCFPGA Crypto Service (FCS)
+===================================
+
+Overview
+========
+
+The Secure Device Manager (SDM) is the hardware security controller in Altera
+SoCFPGA devices. It offers a runtime cryptographic interface, the FPGA Crypto
+Service (FCS), which the host reaches through the stratix10-svc mailbox using
+Arm Trusted Firmware SIP SMC calls.
+
+The caller owns the crypto session lifecycle: open it once with
+``FCS_IOC_OPEN_SESSION`` and close it with ``FCS_IOC_CLOSE_SESSION`` (also
+performed automatically when the file descriptor is closed, including on
+process exit). Only one session may be open at a time across the whole
+device, and it belongs to the file description that opened it: other files
+cannot run commands on it or close it. Opens from other files fail with
+``EBUSY`` until the session is closed. A descriptor shared through ``fork()``
+or ``dup()`` refers to the same file description and therefore shares the
+session. The per-request context ID is managed by the kernel internally
+and is not part of the user ABI.
+
+This driver exposes one FCS operation: the Secure Data Object Service (SDOS),
+which encrypts and decrypts data at rest. The SDM derives the working key from
+a device-unique SDOS root key that never leaves the secure boundary, so the
+host never handles raw key material. A primary use case is black-key
+provisioning.
+
+
+Why a dedicated ioctl
+=====================
+
+SDOS seals and unseals arbitrary application data of up to 32 KiB, not keys of
+a bounded size, so the keyring payload limits of the trusted-keys subsystem do
+not apply to it. The object it produces is a firmware-defined container rather
+than a generic AEAD output, no key is ever set from the host so the crypto API
+has nothing to bind a transform to, and the SDM returns per-operation status
+values that must reach the caller alongside a valid result.
+
+Device node
+===========
+
+The driver registers a misc device::
+
+ /dev/socfpga-fcs
+
+Opening it takes a reference on the driver state. If the driver is unbound
+while the file is open, subsequent operations fail with ``ENODEV`` rather than
+tearing the file descriptor out from under the caller.
+
+Buffer sizes
+============
+
+An SDOS object consists of a 40-byte firmware-defined header, the payload, and
+for an encrypted object a trailing 48-byte HMAC. The payload is between 32 and
+32672 bytes.
+
+================== ================== ==============
+``op_mode`` ``src_size`` range Maximum output
+================== ================== ==============
+non-zero (encrypt) 72 .. 32712 bytes 32760 bytes
+zero (decrypt) 120 .. 32760 bytes 32712 bytes
+================== ================== ==============
+
+Size the output buffer for the maximum shown above. The SDM reports the exact
+produced length once the operation completes.
+
+Data structures
+===============
+
+.. kernel-doc:: include/uapi/misc/socfpga-fcs-crypto.h
+ :identifiers: fcs_ioc_sdos
+
+Driver IOCTLs
+=============
+
+.. c:macro:: FCS_IOC_OPEN_SESSION
+.. kernel-doc:: include/uapi/misc/socfpga-fcs-crypto.h
+ :doc: FCS_IOC_OPEN_SESSION
+
+.. c:macro:: FCS_IOC_CLOSE_SESSION
+.. kernel-doc:: include/uapi/misc/socfpga-fcs-crypto.h
+ :doc: FCS_IOC_CLOSE_SESSION
+
+.. c:macro:: FCS_IOC_SDOS
+.. kernel-doc:: include/uapi/misc/socfpga-fcs-crypto.h
+ :doc: FCS_IOC_SDOS
+
+Return value
+============
+
+On success 0 is returned and, for ``FCS_IOC_SDOS``, the ``__u32`` addressed
+by ``dst_size`` holds the number of bytes the SDM produced. On error -1 is
+returned and ``errno`` is set.
+
+=========== ================================================================
+Error Description
+=========== ================================================================
+EINVAL ``dst`` or ``dst_size`` was NULL, or ``src_size`` was out of
+ range for ``op_mode``.
+EMSGSIZE The output did not fit in ``dst``. The operation itself
+ succeeded and ``error_code`` holds the SDM status, but the
+ result is discarded, so ``dst`` must be sized for the maximum
+ output.
+EFAULT One of the supplied addresses was not accessible.
+EIO The SDM reported a fatal error. ``error_code`` holds the status
+ for ``FCS_IOC_SDOS``.
+ENODEV The device was unbound while the file descriptor was open.
+ENOMEM Staging buffers could not be allocated.
+ENOTCONN ``FCS_IOC_SDOS`` was issued with no crypto session open. Open
+ one first with ``FCS_IOC_OPEN_SESSION``.
+EBUSY ``FCS_IOC_OPEN_SESSION`` was issued while a session was already
+ open. Retry once that session is closed.
+EPERM ``FCS_IOC_SDOS`` or ``FCS_IOC_CLOSE_SESSION`` was issued on a
+ session owned by another file.
+ERESTARTSYS A signal arrived while waiting for another request to finish.
+ Only one SDM transaction is in flight at a time.
+=========== ================================================================
+
+SDM status values
+=================
+
+The ``__s32`` addressed by ``error_code`` carries the firmware status. Two
+decrypt results are successes that carry a warning: the ioctl returns 0 for
+both and the plaintext is in ``dst``.
+
+======= ================================================================
+Status Description
+======= ================================================================
+0x000 The operation completed successfully.
+0x102 Decryption succeeded; reprovisioning the key is recommended.
+0x103 Decryption succeeded, but not with the latest key.
+======= ================================================================
+
+Any other non-zero status is fatal and the ioctl fails with ``EIO``.
+
+User-space usage
+================
+A sample userspace application demonstrating these ioctls can be found at
+`Git Repository - altera-fpga/libfcs <https://github.com/altera-fpga/libfcs>`_

+
