Abstract

According to one or more embodiments of the present invention, a computer implemented method includes enabling, by a secure interface control of a computer system, a non-secure entity of the computer system to access a page of memory shared between the non-secure entity and a secure domain of the computer system based on the page being marked as non-secure with a secure storage protection indicator of the page being clear. The secure interface control can verify that the secure storage protection indicator of the page is clear prior to allowing the non-secure entity to access the page. The secure interface control can provide a secure entity of the secure domain with access to the page absent a check of the secure storage protection indicator of the page.
