This patch adds the support to check if SME has been enabled and if
memory encryption should be activated (checking of command line option
based on the configuration of the default state). If memory encryption
is to be activated, then the encryption mask is set and the kernel is
encrypted "in place."

Ok, will do.


And then you need to correct the function signature in the
!CONFIG_AMD_MEM_ENCRYPT case, at the end of this file, too:

unsigned long __init sme_enable(struct boot_params *bp) { return 0; }

Yup, missed that. I'll make it match.

This native_read_msr() wankery is adding this check:

if (msr_tracepoint_active(__tracepoint_read_msr))

and here it is clearly too early for tracepoints. Please use __rdmsr()
which is purely doing the MSR operation. (... and exception handling for

Ah, good catch. I'll switch to __rdmsr().

when the RDMSR itself raises an exception but we're very early here too
so the MSR better be there, otherwise we'll blow up).

Yes, it will be there if SME support is indicated in the CPUID result.

I have a better idea: you can copy __cmdline_find_option() +
cmdline_find_option() to arch/x86/lib/cmdline.c in a pre-patch. Then,
pass in a buffer and check for "on" and "off". This way you don't
have to misuse the _bool() variant for something which is actually
"option=argument".

I can do that. Because phys_base hasn't been updated yet, I'll have to
create "on" and "off" constants and get their address in a similar way
to the command line option so that I can do the strncmp properly.

Tom


Thanks.
