Pull x86 SEV-ES support from Borislav Petkov: "SEV-ES enhances the current guest memory encryption support called SEV by also encrypting the guest register state, making the registers inaccessible to the hypervisor by en-/decrypting them on world switches. Thus, it adds additional protection to Linux guests against exfiltration, control flow and rollback attacks. With SEV-ES, the guest is in full control of what registers the hypervisor can access. This is provided by a guest-host exchange mechanism based on a new exception vector called VMM Communication Exception (#VC), a new instruction called VMGEXIT and a shared Guest-Host Communication Block which is a decrypted page shared between the guest and the hypervisor. Intercepts to the hypervisor become #VC exceptions in an SEV-ES guest so in order for that exception mechanism to work, the early x86 init code needed to be made able to handle exceptions, which, in itself, brings a bunch of very nice cleanups and improvements to the early boot code like an early page fault handler, allowing for on-demand building of the identity mapping. With that, !KASLR configurations do not use the EFI page table anymore but switch to a kernel-controlled one. The main part of this series adds the support for that new exchange mechanism. The goal has been to keep this as much as possibly separate from the core x86 code by concentrating the machinery in two SEV-ES-specific files: arch/x86/kernel/sev-es-shared.c arch/x86/kernel/sev-es.c Other interaction with core x86 code has been kept at minimum and behind static keys to minimize the performance impact on !SEV-ES setups. Work by Joerg Roedel and Thomas Lendacky and others" * tag 'x86_seves_for_v5.10' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (73 commits) x86/sev-es: Use GHCB accessor for setting the MMIO scratch buffer x86/sev-es: Check required CPU features for SEV-ES x86/efi: Add GHCB mappings when SEV-ES is active x86/sev-es: Handle NMI State x86/sev-es: Support CPU offline/online x86/head/64: Don't call verify_cpu() on starting APs x86/smpboot: Load TSS and getcpu GDT entry before loading IDT x86/realmode: Setup AP jump table x86/realmode: Add SEV-ES specific trampoline entry point x86/vmware: Add VMware-specific handling for VMMCALL under SEV-ES x86/kvm: Add KVM-specific VMMCALL handling under SEV-ES x86/paravirt: Allow hypervisor-specific VMMCALL handling under SEV-ES x86/sev-es: Handle #DB Events x86/sev-es: Handle #AC Events x86/sev-es: Handle VMMCALL Events x86/sev-es: Handle MWAIT/MWAITX Events x86/sev-es: Handle MONITOR/MONITORX Events x86/sev-es: Handle INVD Events x86/sev-es: Handle RDPMC Events x86/sev-es: Handle RDTSC(P) Events ...

Say yes to enable support for the encryption of system memory.
This requires an AMD processor that supports Secure Memory
