Expand description

Whether the VM should be run in protected mode or not.

Variants§

§

Unprotected

The VM should be run in the unprotected mode, where the host has access to its memory.

§

Protected

The VM should be run in protected mode, so the host cannot access its memory directly. It should be booted via the protected VM firmware, so that it can access its secrets.

§

ProtectedWithCustomFirmware

The VM should be run in protected mode, so the host cannot access its memory directly. It should be booted via a custom VM firmware, useful for debugging and testing.

§

ProtectedWithoutFirmware

The VM should be run in protected mode, but booted directly without pVM firmware. The host will still be unable to access the VM memory, but it won’t be given any secrets.

§

UnprotectedWithFirmware

The VM should be run in unprotected mode, but with the same memory layout as protected mode, protected VM firmware loaded, and simulating protected mode as much as possible. This is useful for debugging the protected VM firmware and other protected mode issues.

Implementations§

Returns whether the hypervisor will prevent us from accessing the VM’s memory.

Returns whether the VMM needs to load the pVM firmware.

Returns whether the VM runs a pVM firmware.

Formats the value using the given formatter. Read more
Deserialize this value from the given Serde deserializer. Read more
This method tests for self and other values to be equal, and is used by ==.
This method tests for !=. The default implementation is almost always sufficient, and should not be overridden without very good reason.

Immutably borrows from an owned value. Read more
Mutably borrows from an owned value. Read more
Convert Box<dyn Trait> (where Trait: Downcast) to Box<dyn Any>. Box<dyn Any> can then be further downcast into Box<ConcreteType> where ConcreteType implements Trait.
Convert Rc<Trait> (where Trait: Downcast) to Rc<Any>. Rc<Any> can then be further downcast into Rc<ConcreteType> where ConcreteType implements Trait.
Convert &Trait (where Trait: Downcast) to &Any. This is needed since Rust cannot generate &Any’s vtable from &Trait’s.
Convert &mut Trait (where Trait: Downcast) to &Any. This is needed since Rust cannot generate &mut Any’s vtable from &mut Trait’s.
Convert Arc<Trait> (where Trait: Downcast) to Arc<Any>. Arc<Any> can then be further downcast into Arc<ConcreteType> where ConcreteType implements Trait.

Returns the argument unchanged.

Calls U::from(self).

That is, this conversion is whatever the implementation of From<T> for U chooses to do.
