Performing a WBINVD and DF_FLUSH are expensive operations. The SEV support currently performs this WBINVD/DF_FLUSH combination when an SEV guest is terminated, so there is no need for it to be done before LAUNCH. However, when the SEV firmware transitions the platform from UNINIT state to INIT state, all ASIDs will be marked invalid across all threads. Therefore, as part of transitioning the platform to INIT state, perform a WBINVD/DF_FLUSH after a successful INIT in the PSP/SEV device driver. Since the PSP/SEV device driver is x86 only, it can reference and use the WBINVD related functions directly.

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.
