[PATCH v6 12/16] x86/sev: Prevent RDTSC/RDTSCP interception for Secure TSC enabled guests

From: Nikunj A Dadhania
Date: Tue Nov 28 2023 - 08:02:40 EST


The hypervisor should not be intercepting RDTSC/RDTSCP when Secure TSC
is enabled. A #VC exception will be generated if the RDTSC/RDTSCP
instructions are being intercepted. If this should occur and Secure
TSC is enabled, terminate guest execution.
