On SNP-enabled system, VMRUN marks AVIC Backing Page as in-use while
the guest is running for both secure and non-secure guest. Any hypervisor
write to the in-use vCPU's AVIC backing page (e.g. to inject an interrupt)
will generate unexpected #PF in the host.
Currently, attempt to run AVIC guest would result in the following error:
BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ff3a442e549cc270
#PF: supervisor write access in kernel mode
#PF: error_code(0x80000003) - RMP violation
PGD b6ee01067 P4D b6ee02067 PUD 10096d063 PMD 11c540063 PTE 80000001149cc163
SEV-SNP: PFN 0x1149cc unassigned, dumping non-zero entries in 2M PFN region: [0x114800 - 0x114a00]
...
Newer AMD system is enhanced to allow hypervisor to modify the backing page
for non-secure guest on SNP-enabled system. This enhancement is available
when the CPUID Fn8000_001F_EAX bit 30 is set (HvInUseWrAllowed).
This table describes AVIC support matrix w.r.t. SNP enablement:
| Non-SNP system | SNP system
-----------------------------------------------------
Non-SNP guest | AVIC Activate | AVIC Activate iff
| | HvInuseWrAllowed=1
-----------------------------------------------------
SNP guest | N/A | Secure AVIC
Therefore, check and disable AVIC in kvm_amd driver when the feature is not
available on SNP-enabled system.
See the AMD64 Architecture Programmer’s Manual (APM) Volume 2 for detail.

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 reStructuredText 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.
