Subject: [PATCH v5 04/22] x86/sev: Run RMPADJUST on SVSM calling area page to test VMPL
Date: Wed, 16 Jul 2025 05:18:19 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250716031814.2096113-28-ardb+git@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250716031814.2096113-24-ardb+git@google.com>
From: Ard Biesheuvel <ardb@kernel.org>
Determining the VMPL at which the kernel runs involves performing a
RMPADJUST operation on an arbitrary page of memory, and observing whether
it succeeds.
The use of boot_ghcb_page in the core kernel in this case is completely
arbitrary, but results in the need to provide a PIC alias for it. So use
boot_svsm_ca_page instead, which already needs this alias for other
reasons.
