[PATCH v1 3/4] x86/tdx: Allow MMIO from userspace

From: Alexey Gladkov (Intel)
Date: Tue Jul 30 2024 - 13:36:59 EST


The MMIO emulation is only allowed for kernel space code. It is carried
out through a special API, which uses only certain instructions.

This does not allow userspace to work with virtual devices.

Allow userspace to use the same instructions as kernel space to access
MMIO. So far, no additional checks have been made.
