IIUC nothing about virtio makes it authorized or trusted. The driver is hardened, true, but this should be set at the driver not the device level. And in particular, not all virtio drivers are hardened - I think at this point blk and scsi drivers have been hardened - so treating them all the same looks wrong. > --- > drivers/virtio/virtio.c | 9 +++++++++ > 1 file changed, 9 insertions(+) > > diff --git a/drivers/virtio/virtio.c b/drivers/virtio/virtio.c > index 588e02fb91d3..377b0ccdc503 100644 > --- a/drivers/virtio/virtio.c > +++ b/drivers/virtio/virtio.c > @@ -5,6 +5,8 @@ > #include <linux/module.h> > #include <linux/idr.h> > #include <linux/of.h> > +#include <linux/cc_platform.h> > +#include <linux/device.h> > #include <uapi/linux/virtio_ids.h> > > /* Unique numbering for virtio devices. */ > @@ -390,6 +392,13 @@ int register_virtio_device(struct virtio_device *dev) > dev->config_enabled = false; > dev->config_change_pending = false; > > + /* > + * For Confidential guest (like TDX), virtio devices are > + * trusted.
