to increase the security of application code and data. Cloud Hypervisor supports
SGX virtualization through KVM. Because SGX is built on hardware features that
cannot be emulated in software, virtualizing SGX requires support in KVM and in
the host kernel. The required Linux and KVM changes can be found in the
[KVM SGX Tree](https://github.com/intel/kvm-sgx).
the host kernel. The required Linux and KVM changes can be found in Linux 5.13+.
Utilizing SGX in the guest requires a kernel/OS with SGX support, e.g. a kernel
since release 5.11, see

or the [KVM SGX Tree](https://github.com/intel/kvm-sgx). Running KVM SGX as the
guest kernel allows nested virtualization of SGX.
