Subject: [PATCH v3 6/9] target/i386: SEV: Add support for enabling debug-swap SEV feature
Date: Tue, 28 Oct 2025 16:13:31 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <5fad4eec4386eba7a3aaa7fbc7b8ab3fa79dcdbd.1761648149.git.naveen@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1761648149.git.naveen@kernel.org>
Add support for enabling debug-swap VMSA SEV feature in SEV-ES and
SEV-SNP guests through a new "debug-swap" boolean property on SEV guest
objects. Though the boolean property is available for plain SEV guests,
check_sev_features() has a check that rejects attempts to enable any SEV
feature for a plain SEV guest.
Though this SEV feature is called "Debug virtualization" in the APM, KVM
calls this "debug swap" so use the same name for consistency.
Sample command-line:
-machine q35,confidential-guest-support=sev0 \
-object sev-snp-guest,id=sev0,cbitpos=51,reduced-phys-bits=1,debug-swap=on
