buf_info structures in RX & TX queues are private driver data that do not need to be visible to the device. Although there is physical address and length in the queue descriptor that points to these structures, their layout is not standardized, and device never looks at them. So lets allocate these structures in non-DMA-able memory, and fill physical address as all-ones and length as zero in the queue descriptor. That should alleviate worries brought by Martin Radev in https://lists.osuosl.org/pipermail/intel-wired-lan/Week-of-Mon-20210104/022829.html that malicious vmxnet3 device could subvert SVM/TDX guarantees.

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.
