Is this necessary? Same for unregister. When we looked at
sev_pin_memory, I believe we concluded that double pinning was safe.

You definitely don't want this: this is the function that turns the vm
into an SEV guest (marks SEV as active).

The sev_guest() function does not set sev->active, it only checks it. The sev_guest_init() function is where sev->active is set.


(Not an issue with this patch, but a broader issue) I believe
sev_guest lacks the necessary acquire/release barriers on sev->active,

The svm_mem_enc_op() takes the kvm lock and that is the only way into the sev_guest_init() function where sev->active is set.

Thanks,

since it's called without the kvm lock. I mean, it's x86, so the only
one that's going to hose you is the compiler for this type of access.
There should be an smp_rmb() after the access in sev_guest and an
smp_wmb() before the access in SEV_GUEST_INIT and here.

Just check if the source is an sev_guest and that the destination is
not an sev_guest.

I reviewed earlier incarnations of this, and think the high-level idea
is sound. I'd like to see kvm-selftests for this patch, and plan on
collaborating with AMD to help make those happen.
