Linux v6.16 brings some useful features for the confidential guests.
Most importantly, it adds an ABI to extend runtime measurement registers
(RTMR) for the TEE platforms supporting it. This is currently enabled
on Intel TDX only.
The kernel version bump from v6.12.x to v6.16 forces some CONFIG_*
changes too:
MEMORY_HOTPLUG_DEFAULT_ONLINE was dropped in favor of more config
choices. The equivalent option is MHP_DEFAULT_ONLINE_TYPE_ONLINE_AUTO.
X86_5LEVEL was made unconditional. Since this was only a TDX
configuration, dropping it completely as part of v6.16 is fine.
CRYPTO_NULL2 was merged with CRYPTO_NULL. This was only added in
confidential guest fragments (cryptsetup) so we can drop it in this update.
CRYPTO_FIPS now depends on CRYPTO_SELFTESTS which further depends on
EXPERT which we don't have. Enable both in a separate config fragment
for confidential guests. This can be moved to a common setting once
other targets bump to post v6.16.
CRYPTO_SHA256_SSE3 arch optimizations were reworked and are now enabled
by default. Instead of adding it to whitelist.conf, just drop it completely
since it was only enabled as part of "measured boot" feature for
confidential guests. CONFIG_CRYPTO_CRC32_S390 was reworked the same way.
In this case, whitelist.conf is needed.

There's no benefit on keeping those restricted to the dragonball build,
when they can be used with other VMMs as well (as long as they support
the mem-agent).

Knowing that the upstream project provides a "ready to use" version of
the kernel, it's good to include an easy way to users to monitor
performance, and that's what we're doing by enabling the TASKSTATS (and
related) kernel configs.
This has been present as part of older kernels, but I couldn't
reasonably find the reason why it's been dropped.

Set CONFIG_BLK_DEV_WRITE_MOUNTED=y to restore previous kernel behaviour.
Kernel v6.8+ will by default block buffer writes to block devices mounted by filesystems.
This unfortunately is what we need to use mounted loop devices needed by some teams
to build OSIs and as an overlay backing store.

KinD checks for the presence of this (and other) kernel configuration
via scripts like
https://blog.hypriot.com/post/verify-kernel-container-compatibility/ or
attempts to directly use /proc/sys/kernel/keys/ without checking to see
if it exists, causing an exit when it does not see it.
Docker/it's consumers apparently expect to be able to use the kernel
keyring and it's associated syscalls from/for containers.
There aren't any known downsides to enabling this except that it would
by definition enable additional syscalls defined in
https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man7/keyrings.7.html which are
reachable from userspace. This minimally increases the attack surface of
the Kata Kernel, but this attack surface is minimal (especially since
the kernel is most likely being executed by some kind of hypervisor) and
highly restricted compared to the utility of enabling this feature to
get further containerization compatibility.

`CONFIG_TN3270_TTY` and `CONFIG_S390_AP_IOMMU` are dropped for s390x
in 6.7.x which is used for a confidential kernel.
But they are still used for a vanilla kernel. So we need to add them
to the whitelist.

This is already done for the TDX kernel, and should have been done also
for the confidential one.
This action requires us to bump the kernel version as the resulting

We're using a Kernel based on v6.7, which should include all te
patches needed for SEV / SNP / TDX.
By doing this, later on, we'll be able to stop building the specific
kernel for each one of the targets we have for the TEEs.
Let's note that we've introduced the "confidential" target for the
kernel builder script, while the TEE specific builds are being kept as
they're -- at least for now.
