x86/tdx: Account shared memory

Browse source

The kernel will convert all shared memory back to private during kexec.
The direct mapping page tables will provide information on which memory
is shared.

It is extremely important to convert all shared memory. If a page is
missed, it will cause the second kernel to crash when it accesses it.

Keep track of the number of shared pages. This will allow for
cross-checking against the shared information in the direct mapping and
reporting if the shared bit is lost.

Memory conversion is slow and does not happen often. Global atomic is
not going to be a bottleneck.
