Help text

This is the PKEY Ultravisor support handler for deriving protected keys from secrets stored within the Ultravisor (UV).

This module works together with the UV device and supports the retrieval of protected keys from secrets stored within the UV firmware layer. This service is only available within a protected execution guest and thus this module will fail upon modprobe if no protected execution environment is detected.

Enable this option if you intend to run this kernel with an KVM guest with protected execution and you want to use UV retrievable secrets via PKEY API.
