In a general level, they are using "shared"/"private". TDX is using a
function kvm_gfn_shared_mask() to get the mask and three other marcos to
apply the mask on GPA (IPA)[1]. SEV-SNP is re-using SME macros e.g.
__sme_clr() to apply the mask[2].

Guess we can take them as an reference: using an inline function to get
the protected_bit_mask, like kvm_ipa_protected_mask() with the spec text
you pasted in the comment of the function. The name echoes the spec
description.

Then another necessary functions like kvm_gpa_{is, to}_{shared, private}
, which applies the mask to a GPA(IPA), to echo the terms in the generic
KVM knowledge. (Guess we can refine that with realm_is_addr_protected()).

If the fault IPA carries the protected bit, can't we do like:

if (vcpu_is_rec(vcpu) && fault_ipa_is_protected)
	write_fault = true

Are there still other gaps?

I see. Will dig it and see if there is any idea come to my mind.
