As I said earlier[*], IMO the control plane logic needs to live in host userspace. I think any attempt to have KVM providen anything but the low level plumbing will suffer the same fate as CR4 pinning and XO memory. Iterating on an imperfect solution to incremently improve security is far, far easier to do in userspace, and far more likely to get merged. [*] https://lore.kernel.org/all/ZFUyhPuhtMbYdJ76@xxxxxxxxxx
