To provide a more secure way to start APs under SEV-SNP, use the SEV-SNP AP Creation NAE event. This allows for guest control over the AP register state rather than trusting the hypervisor with the SEV-ES Jump Table address. During native_smp_prepare_cpus(), invoke an SEV-SNP function that, if SEV-SNP is active, will set/override apic->wakeup_secondary_cpu. This will allow the SEV-SNP AP Creation NAE event method to be used to boot the APs. As a result of installing the override when SEV-SNP is active, this method of starting the APs becomes the required method. The override function will fail to start the AP if the hypervisor does not have support for AP creation.

README
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.
