[RFC PATCH v3 19/59] KVM: Add per-VM flag to mark read-only memory as unsupported

From: isaku . yamahata
Date: Wed Nov 24 2021 - 19:25:08 EST


From: Isaku Yamahata <isaku.yamahata@xxxxxxxxx>

Add a flag for TDX to flag RO memory as unsupported and propagate it to
KVM_MEM_READONLY to allow reporting RO memory as unsupported on a per-VM
basis. TDX1 doesn't expose permission bits to the VMM in the SEPT
tables, i.e. doesn't support read-only private memory.
