The behavior of legacy SEV commands is altered when the firmware is initialized for SNP support. In that case, all command buffer memory that may get written to by legacy SEV commands must be marked as firmware-owned in the RMP table prior to issuing the command. Additionally, when a command buffer contains a system physical address that points to additional buffers that firmware may write to, special handling is needed depending on whether: 1) the system physical address points to guest memory 2) the system physical address points to host memory To handle case #1, the pages of these buffers are changed to firmware-owned in the RMP table before issuing the command, and restored to hypervisor-owned after the command completes. For case #2, a bounce buffer is used instead of the original address.

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.
