Subject: [PATCH 0/2] Add throttling detection to sev-guest
The guest request synchronous API from SEV-SNP VMs to the host's security
processor consumes a global resource. For this reason, AMD's docs
recommend that the host implements a throttling mechanism. In order for
the guest to know it's been throttled and should try its request again,
we need some good-faith communication from the host that the request
has been throttled.
These patches work with the existing /dev/sev-guest ABI to detect a
throttling code.
