Is there something in the x86 platform code doing that? Tom actually explained this: > The encryption bit is bit-47 of a physical address. In other words set_memory_decrypted() changes the physical address in the PTEs of the kernel mapping and all other use cases just copy that from there. That's rather nifty, because this way everybody will either use or not use encryption on the page.
