Linus Torvalds 0df072ab65 Take care of a race between when the #VC exception is raised and when
the guest kernel gets to emulate certain instructions in SEV-{ES,SNP}
 guests by:
 
 - disabling emulation of MMIO instructions when coming from user mode
 
 - checking the IO permission bitmap before emulating IO instructions and
   verifying the memory operands of INS/OUTS insns.

README

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.
