When a guest issues a cpuid instruction for Fn0000000D_x0B
(CetUserOffset), KVM will intercept and need to access the guest
MSR_IA32_XSS value. For SEV-ES, this is encrypted and needs to be
included in the GHCB to be visible to the hypervisor.

    accesses to MSR_IA32_XSS for SEV-ES guests")

Heh, too many pronouns and implicit subjects.  I read this, several times, as:

  When a guest issues a cpuid instruction for Fn0000000D_x0B
  (CetUserOffset), KVM will intercept MSR_IA32_XSS and need to access the
  guest MSR_IA32_XSS value.

I think you mean this?

  When a vCPU executes CPUID.0xD.0xB (CetUserOffset), KVM will intercept
  and emulate CPUID.  To emulate CPUID, KVM needs access to the vCPU's
  MSR_IA32_XSS value.  For SEV-ES guests, XSS is encrypted, and so the guest
  must include its XSS value in the GHCB as part of the CPUID request.

Hmm, I suspect that last sentence is wrong though.  Question on that below.

Pre-existing code, but isn't updating CPUID runtime on every VMGEXIT super wasteful?
Or is the guest behavior to mark XCR0 and XSS as valid only when changing XCR0/XSS?
If so, the last sentence of the changelog should be something like:

  MSR_IA32_XSS value.  For SEV-ES guests, XSS is encrypted, and so the guest
  must notify the host of XSS changes by performing a ??? VMGEXIT and
  providing its XSS value in the GHCB.

It's not really on every VMGEXIT. It's only if those values have been 
supplied in the GHCB will the CPUID runtime be updated. And the Linux 
guest code supplies XCR0 and XSS only on a CPUID VMGEXIT.

Both sides of that can optimized. The guest can be optimized down to 
just supplying the values on CPUID 0xD or even further to only supplying 
the values if they have changed since the last time they were supplied. 
The hypervisor side could be optimized to compare the value and only 
update the CPUID runtime if those values are different.

Thanks,
Tom

Heh, this is exactly the thought I had around dinner time yesterday :-)
