Subject: Re: [Part1 PATCH v7 00/17] x86: Secure Encrypted Virtualization (AMD)

One piece that seems missing here is the handling of the vmm
communication exception. What's the plan for non-automatic exits? In
particular, what's the plan for emulated devices that are currently
accessed through MMIO (e.g. the IOAPIC)?

Maybe I'm getting ahead of myself: What's the testing story? (since I
don't think linux would boot with these patches, I'm curious what you
are doing to ensure these pieces work)
