Linux kernel source tree
Add CPU feature detection for Secure Encrypted Virtualization with Secure Nested Paging. This feature adds a strong memory integrity protection to help prevent malicious hypervisor-based attacks like data replay, memory re-mapping, and more. Since enabling the SNP CPU feature imposes a number of additional requirements on host initialization and handling legacy firmware APIs for SEV/SEV-ES guests, only introduce the CPU feature bit so that the relevant handling can be added, but leave it disabled via a disabled-features mask. Once all the necessary changes needed to maintain legacy SEV/SEV-ES support are introduced in subsequent patches, the SNP feature bit will be unmasked/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.
