[PATCH] driver/virtio: Add Memory Balloon Support for SEV/SEV-ES

From: Zheyun Shen
Date: Wed Jan 10 2024 - 01:23:00 EST


For now, SEV pins guest's memory to avoid swapping or
moving ciphertext, but leading to the inhibition of
Memory Ballooning.

In Memory Ballooning, only guest's free pages will be relocated
in balloon inflation and deflation, so the difference of plaintext
doesn't matter to guest.

Memory Ballooning is a nice memory overcommitment technology can
be used in CVM based on SEV and SEV-ES, so userspace tools can
provide an option to allow SEV not to pin memory and enable
Memory Ballooning. Guest kernel may not inhibit Balloon and
should set shared memory for Balloon decrypted.
