[PATCH v5 12/12] x86/tdx: Handle CPUID via #VE

From: Kuppuswamy Sathyanarayanan
Date: Wed Aug 04 2021 - 14:15:15 EST


From: "Kirill A. Shutemov" <kirill.shutemov@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

TDX has three classes of CPUID leaves: some CPUID leaves
are always handled by the CPU, others are handled by the TDX module,
and some others are handled by the VMM. Since the VMM cannot directly
intercept the instruction these are reflected with a #VE exception
to the guest, which then converts it into a hypercall to the VMM,
or handled directly.

The TDX module EAS has a full list of CPUID leaves which are handled
natively or by the TDX module in 16.2. Only unknown CPUIDs are handled by
the #VE method. In practice this typically only applies to the
hypervisor specific CPUIDs unknown to the native CPU.

Therefore there is no risk of causing this in early CPUID code which
runs before the #VE handler is set up because it will never access
those exotic CPUID leaves.
