This new exit allows user space to handle memory-related errors. Currently it supports two types (KVM_EXIT_MEM_MAP_SHARED/PRIVATE) of errors which are used for shared memory <-> private memory conversion in memory encryption usage. After private memory is enabled, there are two places in KVM that can exit to userspace to trigger private <-> shared conversion: - explicit conversion: happens when guest explicitly calls into KVM to map a range (as private or shared), KVM then exits to userspace to do the map/unmap operations. - implicit conversion: happens in KVM page fault handler. * if the fault is due to a private memory access then causes a userspace exit for a shared->private conversion request when the page has not been allocated in the private memory backend. * If the fault is due to a shared memory access then causes a userspace exit for a private->shared conversion request when the page has already been allocated in the private memory backend.
