+
+This document describes how Confidential Computing secret injection is handled
+from the firmware to the operating system.
+
+
+Introduction
+============
+
+Confidential Computing (coco) hardware such as AMD SEV (Secure Encrypted
+Virtualization) allows guest owners to inject secrets into the VMs
+memory without the host/hypervisor being able to read them.  In SEV,
+secret injection is performed early in the VM launch process, before the
+guest starts running.
+
+The efi_secret kernel module allows userspace applications to access these
+secrets via securityfs.
+
+
+Secret data flow
+================
+
+The guest firmware may reserve a designated memory area for secret injection,
+and publish its location (base GPA and length) in the EFI configuration table
+under a ``LINUX_EFI_COCO_SECRET_AREA_GUID`` entry
+(``adf956ad-e98c-484c-ae11-b51c7d336447``).  This memory area should be marked
+by the firmware as ``EFI_RESERVED_TYPE``, and therefore the kernel should not
+be use it for its own purposes.
+
+During the VM's launch, the virtual machine manager may inject a secret to that
+area.  In AMD SEV and SEV-ES this is performed using the
+``KVM_SEV_LAUNCH_SECRET`` command (see [amd-mem-enc]_).  The strucutre of the
+injected Guest Owner secret data should be a GUIDed table of secret values; the
+binary format is described in ``drivers/virt/coco/efi_secret/efi_secret.c``
+under "Structure of the EFI secret area".
+
+On kernel start, the kernel's EFI driver saves the location of the secret
+memory (taken from the EFI configuration table) in the ``efi.coco_secret``
+field.
+
+When a userspace application needs to access the secrets inside the guest VM,
+it loads the efi_secret kernel module (``CONFIG_EFI_SECRET=m``) which exposes
+the secrets via securityfs.  The details of the efi_secret filesystem interface
+are in [efi-secret-abi]_.
+
+
+
+Application usage example
+=========================
+
+Consider a guest performing computations on encrypted files.  The Guest Owner
+provides the decryption key (= secret) using the secret injection mechanism.
+The guest application reads the secret from the efi_secret filesystem and
+proceeds to decrypt the files into memory and then performs the needed
+computations on the content.
+
+In this example, the host can't read the files from the disk image
+because they are encrypted.  Host can't read the decryption key because
+it is passed using the secret injection mechanism (= secure channel).
+Host can't read the decrypted content from memory because it's a
+confidential (memory-encrypted) guest.
+
+Here is a simple example for usage of the efi_secret module in a guest
+to which an EFI secret area with 4 secrets was injected during launch::
