[PATCH v3 06/23] kvm: arm64: Add kvm-arm.protected early kernel parameter

David Brazdil
2020-11-26T15:57:39Z

Add an early parameter that allows users to opt into protected KVM mode
when using the nVHE hypervisor. In this mode, guest state will be kept
private from the host. This will primarily involve enabling stage-2
address translation for the host, restricting DMA to host memory, and
filtering host SMCs.

Capability ARM64_PROTECTED_KVM is set if the param is passed, CONFIG_KVM
is enabled and the kernel was not booted with VHE.
