[PATCH v6 5/5] x86/kvm: Add kexec support for SEV Live Migration.

From: Ashish Kalra
Date: Tue Aug 24 2021 - 07:08:05 EST


From: Ashish Kalra <ashish.kalra@xxxxxxx>

Reset the host's shared pages list related to kernel
specific page encryption status settings before we load a
new kernel by kexec. We cannot reset the complete
shared pages list here as we need to retain the
UEFI/OVMF firmware specific settings.

The host's shared pages list is maintained for the
guest to keep track of all unencrypted guest memory regions,
therefore we need to explicitly mark all shared pages as
encrypted again before rebooting into the new guest kernel.
