Subject: [PATCH 0/4] KVM: SEV: Support direct setting of VMSA for SEV-SNP guests
Date: Thu, 11 Jun 2026 14:35:24 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260611123528.572255-1-joro@8bytes.org> (raw)

From: Joerg Roedel <joerg.roedel@amd.com>

Hi,

Here is a set of patches to support the VMM to provide a VMSA directly
to KVM which will then be used by the BSP of the SEV-SNP VM. The
use-case is IGVM loading, where the IGVM file contains a VMSA image
which must be loaded into the initial memory image of the VM as-is to
guarantee the expected launch measurement.

The first patch re-works guest-VMSA handling and streamlines the state
handling to make it more clear and maintainable. That patch accounts
for the biggest part if the changes.

I have tested these changes together with the planes patches and
COCONUT-SVSM and can confirm that the launch measurment is correct
again with these changes.

The changes are based on previous work by Roy Hopkins[1].

Please review.

Thanks,

	Joerg
