[PATCH v3 0/2] KVM: x86: guest interface for SEV live migration
From: Paolo Bonzini
Date: Thu Apr 29 2021 - 06:47:19 EST
This is a reviewed version of the guest interface (hypercall+MSR)
for SEV live migration. The differences lie mostly in the API
for userspace. In particular:
- the CPUID feature is not exposed in KVM_GET_SUPPORTED_CPUID
- the hypercall must be enabled manually with KVM_ENABLE_CAP
- the MSR has sensible behavior if not filtered
Compared to v2, the KVM-provided behavior of the MSR is different:
it is set to 0 if the guest memory is encrypted, and 1 if it is not.
The idea is that the MSR is read-only if KVM_FEATURE_HC_PAGE_ENC_STATUS
is not exposed to the guest (it should only be exposed if the guest has
encrypted memory), but it also has a sensible value for non-encrypted
guests. QEMU could however expose a "0" value for the special "-cpu
host,migratable=no" mode if it wanted.
Because of this new behavior, the CPUID bit are split.
