From 7f830e126dc357fc086905ce9730140fd4528d66 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tom Lendacky thomas.lendacky@amd.com Date: Mon, 15 Sep 2025 11:04:12 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] x86/sev: Guard sev_evict_cache() with CONFIG_AMD_MEM_ENCRYPT
The sev_evict_cache() is guest-related code and should be guarded by CONFIG_AMD_MEM_ENCRYPT, not CONFIG_KVM_AMD_SEV.
CONFIG_AMD_MEM_ENCRYPT=y is required for a guest to run properly as an SEV-SNP guest, but a guest kernel built with CONFIG_KVM_AMD_SEV=n would get the stub function of sev_evict_cache() instead of the version that performs the actual eviction. Move the function declarations under the appropriate #ifdef.
