The memory integrity guarantees of SEV-SNP are enforced through a new structure called the Reverse Map Table (RMP). The RMP is a single data structure shared across the system that contains one entry for every 4K page of DRAM that may be used by SEV-SNP VMs. The APM Volume 2 section on Secure Nested Paging (SEV-SNP) details a number of steps needed to detect/enable SEV-SNP and RMP table support on the host: - Detect SEV-SNP support based on CPUID bit - Initialize the RMP table memory reported by the RMP base/end MSR registers and configure IOMMU to be compatible with RMP access restrictions - Set the MtrrFixDramModEn bit in SYSCFG MSR - Set the SecureNestedPagingEn and VMPLEn bits in the SYSCFG MSR - Configure IOMMU RMP table entry format is non-architectural and it can vary by processor. It is defined by the PPR document for each respective CPU family. Restrict SNP support to CPU models/families which are compatible with the current RMP table entry format to guard against any undefined behavior when running on other system types. Future models/support will handle this through an architectural mechanism to allow for broader compatibility. SNP host code depends on CONFIG_KVM_AMD_SEV config flag which may be enabled even when CONFIG_AMD_MEM_ENCRYPT isn't set, so update the SNP-specific IOMMU helpers used here to rely on CONFIG_KVM_AMD_SEV instead of CONFIG_AMD_MEM_ENCRYPT.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
