This part of Secure Encrypted Virtualization (SEV) patch series focuses on KVM changes required to create and manage SEV guests. SEV is an extension to the AMD-V architecture which supports running encrypted virtual machine (VMs) under the control of a hypervisor. Encrypted VMs have their pages (code and data) secured such that only the guest itself has access to unencrypted version. Each encrypted VM is associated with a unique encryption key; if its data is accessed to a different entity using a different key the encrypted guest's data will be incorrectly decrypted, leading to unintelligible data. This security model ensures that hypervisor will no longer able to inspect or alter any guest code or data. The key management of this feature is handled by a separate processor known as the AMD Secure Processor (AMD-SP) which is present on AMD SOCs. The SEV Key Management Specification (see below) provides a set of commands which can be used by hypervisor to load virtual machine keys through the AMD-SP driver. The patch series adds a new ioctl in KVM driver (KVM_MEMORY_ENCRYPT_OP). The ioctl will be used by qemu to issue SEV guest-specific commands defined in Key Management Specification.
