[RFC PATCH v1 07/28] x86: Do not encrypt memory areas if SEV is enabled

From: Brijesh Singh <hidden>
Date: 2016-08-22 23:41:08
Also in: kvm, linux-efi, lkml
Subsystem: the rest, x86 architecture (32-bit and 64-bit) · Maintainers: Linus Torvalds, Thomas Gleixner, Ingo Molnar, Borislav Petkov, Dave Hansen

From: Tom Lendacky <thomas.lendacky@amd.com>

When running under SEV, some memory areas that were originally not
encrypted under SME are already encrypted. In these situations do not
attempt to encrypt them.
