SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0-or-later + +CPACF Support +============= + +CPACF +----- + +CP Assist for Cryptographic Function (CPACF) is a hardware-integrated +coprocessor feature built into every processor core of IBM Z and +LinuxONE mainframes (s390x architecture). It provides high-speed, +hardware-accelerated encryption and hashing directly on the CPU. + +CPACF provides a set of z/Architecture instructions (known as Message +Security Assist or MSA) that execute cryptographic operations +synchronously with the main processor. + +- Symmetric Encryption: Support for AES (128, 192, 256-bit), DES, and + Triple-DES (TDES). +- Hashing: Acceleration for SHA-1, SHA-2 (up to SHA-512), SHA-3 and + SHAKE. +- Random Number Generation: Pseudo Random Number Generator (PRNG) and + a hardware-based True Random Number Generator (TRNG). +- Asymmetric Support: Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC) primitives + P-256, P-384, P-521, Montgomery/Edwards curves (e.g., Ed25519). + +Documentation about CPACF instructions is publicly available and +can be found in the "z/Architecture Principles of Operation" +accessible at the IBM documentation hub https://www.ibm.com/docs/en. +For example the latest version as a pdf is available here: +https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/zvm/library/other/22783214.pdf + + +CPACF instructions +------------------ + +Here is a list of implemented CPACF instructions and the supported +functions for each instruction: + +KDSA (COMPUTE DIGITAL SIGNATURE AUTHENTICATION) +- Function code 0x00 - Function Query + +KIMD (COMPUTE INTERMEDIATE MESSAGE DIGEST) +- Function code 0x00 - Function Query +- Function code 0x02 - CPACF_KIMD_SHA_256 +- Function code 0x03 - CPACF_KIMD_SHA_512 + +KLMD (COMPUTE LAST MESSAGE DIGEST) +- Function code 0x00 - Function Query +- Function code 0x02 - CPACF_KLMD_SHA_256 +- Function code 0x03 - CPACF_KLMD_SHA_512 + +KM (CIPHER MESSAGE) +- Function code 0x00 - Function Query +- Function code 0x12 - CPACF_KM_AES_128 +- Function code 0x13 - CPACF_KM_AES_192 +- Function code 0x14 - CPACF_KM_AES_256 +- Function code 0x1a - CPACF_KM_PAES_128 +- Function code 0x1b - CPACF_KM_PAES_192 +- Function code 0x1c - CPACF_KM_PAES_256 +- Function code 0x32 - CPACF_KM_XTS_128 +- Function code 0x34 - CPACF_KM_XTS_256 +- Function code 0x3a - CPACF_KM_PXTS_128 +- Function code 0x3c - CPACF_KM_PXTS_256 + +KMAC (COMPUTE MESSAGE AUTHENTICATION CODE) +- Function code 0x00 - Function Query + +KMC (CIPHER MESSAGE WITH CHAINING) +- Function code 0x00 - Function Query +- Function code 0x12 - CPACF_KMC_AES_128 +- Function code 0x13 - CPACF_KMC_AES_192 +- Function code 0x14 - CPACF_KMC_AES_256 +- Function code 0x1a - CPACF_KMC_PAES_128 +- Function code 0x1b - CPACF_KMC_PAES_192 +- Function code 0x1c - CPACF_KMC_PAES_256 + +KMCTR (CIPHER MESSAGE WITH COUNTER) +- Function code 0x00 - Function Query +- Function code 0x12 - CPACF_KMCTR_AES_128 +- Function code 0x13 - CPACF_KMCTR_AES_192 +- Function code 0x14 - CPACF_KMCTR_AES_256 +- Function code 0x1a - CPACF_KMCTR_PAES_128 +- Function code 0x1b - CPACF_KMCTR_PAES_192 +- Function code 0x1c - CPACF_KMCTR_PAES_256 + +KMF (CIPHER MESSAGE WITH CIPHER FEEDBACK) +- not supported + +KMO (CIPHER MESSAGE WITH OUTPUT FEEDBACK) +- not supported + +PCC (PERFORM CRYPTOGRAPHIC COMPUTATION) +- Function code 0x00 - Function Query +- Function code 0x32 - compute XTS param AES-128 +- Function code 0x34 - compute XTS param AES-256 +- Function code 0x3a - compute XTS param Encrypted AES-128 +- Function code 0x3c - compute XTS param Encrypted AES-256 + +PCKMO (PERFORM CRYPTOGRAPHIC KEY MANAGEMENT OPERATION) +- Function code 0x00 - Function Query +- Function code 0x12 - CPACF_PCKMO_ENC_AES_128_KEY +- Function code 0x13 - CPACF_PCKMO_ENC_AES_192_KEY +- Function code 0x14 - CPACF_PCKMO_ENC_AES_256_KEY + +PRNO (PERFORM RANDOM NUMBER OPERATION) +- Function code 0x00 - Function Query +- Function code 0x72 - CPACF_PRNO_TRNG + +Note that the use of a not supported CPACF instruction (KMF and KMO) +or invocation of a not listed function will result in a Specification +Exception. + +Not listed CPACF instructions (KMA, KMF, KMO) cause an Operation +Exception when used.
