While the main additions from GHCB protocol version 1 to version 2 revolve mostly around SEV-SNP support, there are a number of changes applicable to SEV-ES guests as well. Pluck a handful patches from the SNP hypervisor patchset for GHCB-related changes that are also applicable to SEV-ES. A KVM_SEV_INIT2 field lets userspace can control the maximum GHCB protocol version advertised to guests and manage compatibility across kernels/versions.
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
