We had a whole conversation the last time this was posted about huge
page types *other* than THP. I don't see any comprehension of those
types or what would happen if one of those was used with SEV-SNP.
What was the result of those review comments?
Based on previous review comments Sean was not keen on KVM having
perform this detection and abort the guest SEV-SNP VM launch. So, I
didn't implemented the check and waiting for more discussion before
going at it.
SEV-SNP guest requires the VMM to register the guest backing pages
before the VM launch. Personally, I would prefer KVM to check the
backing page type during the registration and fail to register if its
hugetlbfs (and others) to avoid us get into situation where we could not
split the hugepage.
thanks
I'm still worried that hugetlbfs (and others) are not properly handled
by this series.
