In Isolation VM with AMD SEV, bounce buffer needs to be accessed via

The shared_gpa_boundary in the AMD SEV SNP spec is called virtual top of
memory(vTOM). Memory addresses below vTOM are automatically treated as
private while memory above vTOM is treated as shared.
This seems to be independently reintroducing some of the SEV
infrastructure. Is it really OK that this doesn't interact at all with
any existing SEV code?
For instance, do we need a new 'swiotlb_unencrypted_base', or should
this just be using sme_me_mask somehow?
Hi Dave:
Thanks for your review. Hyper-V provides a para-virtualized
confidential computing solution based on the AMD SEV function and not
expose sev&sme capabilities to guest. So sme_me_mask is unset in the
Hyper-V Isolation VM. swiotlb_unencrypted_base is more general solution
to handle such case of different address space for encrypted and
decrypted memory and other platform also may reuse it.
