Phoronix: Linux Dealing With x86 32-bit Software Security Issue For Intel TDX & AMD SEV

AMD Secure Encrypted Virtualization (SEV) and Intel Trust Domain Extensions (TDX) are intended to help provide better security for virtual machines and are key elements to both companies investments around confidential computing. It turns out they have a common enemy in their VM security goals: x86 32-bit software...
