The Virtual Machine Privilege Level (VMPL) feature in the SEV-SNP
architecture allows a guest VM to divide its address space into four
levels. The level can be used to provide hardware isolated abstraction
layers within a VM. VMPL0 is the highest privilege level, and VMPL3 is
the least privilege level. Certain operations must be done by the VMPL0
software, such as:
* Validate or invalidate memory range (PVALIDATE instruction)
* Allocate VMSA page (RMPADJUST instruction when VMSA=1)
The initial SNP support requires that the guest kernel is running at
VMPL0. Add such a check to verify the guest is running at level 0 before
continuing the boot. There is no easy method to query the current VMPL
level, so use the RMPADJUST instruction to determine whether the guest
is running at the VMPL0.
