One more I should mention:
- After encryption, the page table is no longer usable for translations by stuff like addr_gva2gpa(), so tests would either need to be audited/updated to do these translations upfront and only rely on cached/stored values thereafter, or perhaps a "shadow" copy could be maintained by kvm_util so the translations will continue to work after encryption.
Yeah, this is a big one. Considering that a lot of the selftests are for specific bugs, the benefit in running them with SEV is relatively low. That said, there could be some simple tests where it makes sense, so it'd be nice to plan a little ahead so that it isn't _too_ difficult.
