SEV-SNP guests will be provided the location of special 'secrets' and 'CPUID' pages via the Confidential Computing blob. This blob is provided to the run-time kernel either through a boot_params field that was initialized by the boot/compressed kernel, or via a setup_data structure as defined by the Linux Boot Protocol. Locate the Confidential Computing blob from these sources and, if found, use the provided CPUID page/table address to create a copy that the run-time kernel will use when servicing CPUID instructions via a #VC handler.

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 Restructured Text 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.
