WARN if bits 63:32 are non-zero when handling an intercepted legacy #PF, as the error code for #PF is limited to 32 bits (and in practice, 16 bits on Intel CPUS). This behavior is architectural, is part of KVM's ABI (see kvm_vcpu_events.error_code), and is explicitly documented as being preserved for intecerpted #PF in both the APM: The error code saved in EXITINFO1 is the same as would be pushed onto the stack by a non-intercepted #PF exception in protected mode. and even more explicitly in the SDM as VMCS.VM_EXIT_INTR_ERROR_CODE is a 32-bit field. Simply drop the upper bits if hardware provides garbage, as spurious information should do no harm (though in all likelihood hardware is buggy and the kernel is doomed). Handling all upper 32 bits in the #PF path will allow moving the sanity check on synthetic checks from kvm_mmu_page_fault() to npf_interception(), which in turn will allow deriving PFERR_PRIVATE_ACCESS from AMD's PFERR_GUEST_ENC_MASK without running afoul of the sanity check. Note, this is also why Intel uses bit 15 for SGX (highest bit on Intel CPUs) and AMD uses bit 31 for RMP (highest bit on AMD CPUs); using the highest bit minimizes the probability of a collision with the "other" vendor, without needing to plumb more bits through microcode.

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 reStructuredText 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.
