These patches are submitted as an RFC mainly because I'm a relative newcomer to QEMU with no knowledge of the community's views on including Rust code, nor it's preference of using library APIs for ioctls that were previously implemented in QEMU directly.
Recently, the Rust sev library [0] has introduced a C API to take advantage of the library outside of Rust. Should the inclusion of the library as a dependency be desired, it can be extended further to include the firmware/platform ioctls and more. This would result in much of the AMD-SEV portion of QEMU being offloaded to the library. This series looks to explore the possibility of using the library and show a bit of what it would look like. I'm looking for comments regarding if this feature is desired. [0] https://github.com/virtee/sev NOTE: The required meson changes in the Rust library are not merged yet. Therefore, the git repository URL in subprojects/sev.wrap points to a personal fork of the library (for testing purposes). The meson patches for the library are required before these patches can be merged.
