Hi Jon,

Thank you for raising this bug.

While we are going to investigate this (I've launched some VMs and I can 
confirm / reproduce the behavior), I would like to ask why do you think the 
missing CPU flags is relevant here?
 
It was mentioned missing the following flags when SEV-SNP is enabled:

AVX
AVX2
VAES
VPCLMULQDQ
FMA
XSAVE
XSAVEOPT
XSAVEC
XGETBV1
RDPRU

However, those same flags are also missing when we launch a AL2023
instance with SEV-SNP enabled, so I would assume that is expected, no?

The biggest difference I saw when comparing Ubuntu 24.04 with and
without SEV-SNP and AL2023, is that the invpcid_single is missing on
Ubuntu both when SEV-SNP is enabled or disabled, but I'm not sure if
this has any relevance here.

Please, let us know your thoughts.

Regards,
Fabio Martins
