2 * QEMU Confidential Guest support
3 * This interface describes the common pieces between various
4 * schemes for protecting guest memory or other state against a
5 * compromised hypervisor. This includes memory encryption (AMD's
6 * SEV and Intel's MKTME) or special protection modes (PEF on POWER,
7 * or PV on s390x).

32 * ready: flag set by CGS initialization code once it's ready to
33 * start executing instructions in a potentially-secure
34 * guest
36 * The definition here is a bit fuzzy, because this is essentially
37 * part of a self-sanity-check, rather than a strict mechanism.
39 * It's not feasible to have a single point in the common machine
40 * init path to configure confidential guest support, because
41 * different mechanisms have different interdependencies requiring
42 * initialization in different places, often in arch or machine
43 * type specific code. It's also usually not possible to check
44 * for invalid configurations until that initialization code.
45 * That means it would be very easy to have a bug allowing CGS
46 * init to be bypassed entirely in certain configurations.
48 * Silently ignoring a requested security feature would be bad, so
49 * to avoid that we check late in init that this 'ready' flag is
50 * set if CGS was requested. If the CGS init hasn't happened, and
51 * so 'ready' is not set, we'll abort.
