+-------------------------------------
+
+Architectures: x86 SEV enabled
+Type: vm
+Parameters: args[0] is the fd of the source vm
+Returns: 0 on success
+
+This capability enables userspace to migrate the encryption context from the VM
+indicated by the fd to the VM this is called on.
+
+This is intended to support intra-host migration of VMs between userspace VMMs,
+upgrading the VMM process without interrupting the guest.
