As further hardening for professional and server CPUs, we should recommend enabling hardware-based encryption of physical memory. Note SME was enabled by default prior to kernel 5.15 but was disabled due to what appears to be a legacy and isolated issue concerning DMA masks.
I am proposing to add the following command line options:
mem_encrypt=on
kvm_amd.sev=1
vm_amd.sev_es=1
vm_amd.sev_snp=1
Please see Kicksecure/security-misc#338, Kicksecure/security-misc#341, and Kicksecure/security-misc#352 for some additional details.
