Linux kernel source tree

Some drivers require the mapped tt pages to be decrypted. In an ideal
world this would have been handled by the dma layer, but the TTM page
fault handling would have to be rewritten to able to do that.
A side-effect of the TTM page fault handling is using a dma allocation
per order (via ttm_pool_alloc_page) which makes it impossible to just
trivially use dma_mmap_attrs. As a result ttm has to be very careful
about trying to make its pgprot for the mapped tt pages match what
the dma layer thinks it is. At the ttm layer it's possible to
deduce the requirement to have tt pages decrypted by checking
whether coherent dma allocations have been requested and the system
is running with confidential computing technologies.
This approach isn't ideal but keeping TTM matching DMAs expectations
for the page properties is in general fragile, unfortunately proper
fix would require a rewrite of TTM's page fault handling.
Fixes vmwgfx with SEV enabled.
v2: Explicitly include cc_platform.h
v3: Use CC_ATTR_GUEST_MEM_ENCRYPT instead of CC_ATTR_MEM_ENCRYPT to
limit the scope to guests and log when memory decryption is enabled.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
