[PATCH v4 15/15] x86/tdx: Add cmdline option to force use of ioremap_shared

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

 



Add a command line option to force all the enabled drivers to use
shared memory mappings. This will be useful when enabling new drivers
in the protected guest without making all the required changes to use
shared mappings in it.

Note that this might also allow other non explicitly enabled drivers
to interact with the host, which could cause other security risks.
