-Secure Memory Encryption (SME) is a feature found on AMD processors.
+Secure Memory Encryption (SME) and Secure Encrypted Virtualization (SEV) are

+SEV enables running encrypted virtual machines (VMs) in which the code and data
+of the guest VM are secured so that a decrypted version is available only
+within the VM itself. SEV guest VMs have the concept of private and shared
+memory. Private memory is encrypted with the guest-specific key, while shared
+memory may be encrypted with hypervisor key. When SME is enabled, the hypervisor
+key is the same key which is used in SME.

 A page is encrypted when a page table entry has the encryption bit set (see
 below on how to determine its position).  The encryption bit can also be
 specified in the cr3 register, allowing the PGD table to be encrypted. Each
 successive level of page tables can also be encrypted by setting the encryption
 bit in the page table entry that points to the next table. This allows the full
 page table hierarchy to be encrypted. Note, this means that just because the
-encryption bit is set in cr3, doesn't imply the full hierarchy is encyrpted.
+encryption bit is set in cr3, doesn't imply the full hierarchy is encrypted.
 Each page table entry in the hierarchy needs to have the encryption bit set to
 achieve that. So, theoretically, you could have the encryption bit set in cr3
 so that the PGD is encrypted, but not set the encryption bit in the PGD entry
 for a PUD which results in the PUD pointed to by that entry to not be
 encrypted.

+When SEV is enabled, instruction pages and guest page tables are always treated
