+Calculating expected guest launch measurement
+---------------------------------------------
+
+In order to verify the guest launch measurement, The Guest Owner must compute
+it in the exact same way as it is calculated by the AMD-SP. SEV API Spec
+([SEVAPI]_) section 6.5.1 describes the AMD-SP operations:
+
+ GCTX.LD is finalized, producing the hash digest of all plaintext data
+ imported into the guest.
+
+ The launch measurement is calculated as:
+
+ HMAC(0x04 || API_MAJOR || API_MINOR || BUILD || GCTX.POLICY || GCTX.LD || MNONCE; GCTX.TIK)
+
+ where "||" represents concatenation.
+
+The values of API_MAJOR, API_MINOR, BUILD, and GCTX.POLICY can be obtained
+from the ``query-sev`` qmp command.
+
+The value of MNONCE is part of the response of ``query-sev-launch-measure``: it
+is the last 16 bytes of the base64-decoded data field (see SEV API Spec
+([SEVAPI]_) section 6.5.2 Table 52: LAUNCH_MEASURE Measurement Buffer).
+
+The value of GCTX.LD is
+``SHA256(firmware_blob || kernel_hashes_blob || vmsas_blob)``, where:
+
+* ``firmware_blob`` is the content of the entire firmware flash file (for
+ example, ``OVMF.fd``). Note that you must build a stateless firmware file
+ which doesn't use an NVRAM store, because the NVRAM area is not measured, and
+ therefore it is not secure to use a firmware which uses state from an NVRAM
+ store.
+* if kernel is used, and ``kernel-hashes=on``, then ``kernel_hashes_blob`` is
+ the content of PaddedSevHashTable (including the zero padding), which itself
+ includes the hashes of kernel, initrd, and cmdline that are passed to the
+ guest. The PaddedSevHashTable struct is defined in ``target/i386/sev.c``.
+* if SEV-ES is enabled (``policy & 0x4 != 0``), ``vmsas_blob`` is the
+ concatenation of all VMSAs of the guest vcpus. Each VMSA is 4096 bytes long;
+ its content is defined inside Linux kernel code as ``struct vmcb_save_area``,
+ or in AMD APM Volume 2 ([APMVOL2]_) Table B-2: VMCB Layout, State Save Area.
+
+If kernel hashes are not used, or SEV-ES is disabled, use empty blobs for
+``kernel_hashes_blob`` and ``vmsas_blob`` as needed.
