Subject: [ANNOUNCE] PUCK Notes - 2023.05.31 - guest_memfd()

Thanks everyone who joined this morning, or evening/afternoon depending on where
you are!  The slides and recording are available on Drive (see bottom), though
unfortunately non-Google people will need to request access as our corporate
settings don't provide a way to share with literally everyone.  This *should* be
a one-time pain though, and I'll do my best to grant access immediately.

Key Takeaways:
 - No objections to pursuing a KVM ioctl(), e.g. KVM_CREATE_GUEST_MEMFD.
 - A KVM ioctl() is cleaner than a generic syscall for pKVM and SNP, and at
   worst a wash for TDX.

Next Steps:
 - Vitaly to follow-up with Hyper-V folks to see if "Linux as the root partition"
   needs/wants a generic syscall for managing guest memory.
 - Sean to post KVM_CREATE_GUEST_MEMFD implementation as v11, and to coordinate
   with owners of dependent series to sort out how to iterate efficiently.

Future Schedule:
June 7th  - pKVM on x86 (Google + Intel)
June 14th - Available!
June 21st - No Meeting (Sean OOO)
June 28th - Available!
July 5th  - No Meeting (Sean OOO)
