SECURE MAPPING OF PROCESS ADDRESS SPACE IDENTIFIERS FOR COMPUTING ENVIRONMENTS IMPLEMENTING INPUT/OUTPUT VIRTUALIZATION
Abstract:
A processor includes a virtual machine manager (VMM) configured to map a guest process address space identifier (PASID) associated with a virtual machine (VM) to a host PASID associated with a host machine of the VM. The processor further includes a processor core configured to maintain, responsive to the guest PASID being mapped to the host PASID, an entry in a PASID reverse mapping table (PMP) including one or more security attributes associated with the host PASID.
