[RFC PATCH 20/21] x86/virt/tdx: Add kernel command line to opt-in TDX host support

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Enabling TDX consumes additional memory (used by TDX as metadata) and
additional initialization time.  Introduce a kernel command line to
allow to opt-in TDX host kernel support when user truly wants to use
TDX.
