[PATCH v9 3/6] x86/virt/tdx: Use auto-generated code to read global metadata

From: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@xxxxxxxxxx>

The TDX module provides a set of "Global Metadata Fields". They report
things like TDX module version, supported features, and fields related
to create/run TDX guests and so on.

Currently the kernel only reads "TD Memory Region" (TDMR) related fields
for module initialization. There are needs to read more global metadata
fields for future use:

- Supported features ("TDX_FEATURES0") to fail module initialization
when the module doesn't support "not clobbering host RBP when exiting
from TDX guest" feature [1].
- KVM TDX baseline support and other features like TDX Connect will
need to read more.

The current global metadata reading code has limitations (e.g., it only
has a primitive helper to read metadata field with 16-bit element size,
while TDX supports 8/16/32/64 bits metadata element sizes). It needs
tweaks in order to read more metadata fields.

But even with the tweaks, when new code is added to read a new field,
the reviewers will still need to review against the spec to make sure
the new code doesn't screw up things like using the wrong metadata
field ID (each metadata field is associated with a unique field ID,
which is a TDX-defined u64 constant) etc.

TDX documents all global metadata fields in a 'global_metadata.json'
file as part of TDX spec [2]. JSON format is machine readable. Instead
of tweaking the metadata reading code, use a script to generate the code
so that:

1) Using the generated C is simple.
2) Adding a field is simple, e.g., the script just pulls the field ID
out of the JSON for a given field thus no manual review is needed.

Specifically, to match the layout of the 'struct tdx_sys_info' and its
sub-structures, the script uses a table with each entry containing the
the name of the sub-structures (which reflects the "Class") and the
"Field Name" of all its fields, and auto-generate:

1) The 'struct tdx_sys_info' and all 'struct tdx_sys_info_xx'
sub-structures in 'tdx_global_metadata.h'.

2) The main function 'get_tdx_sys_info()' which reads all metadata to
'struct tdx_sys_info' and the 'get_tdx_sys_info_xx()' functions
which read 'struct tdx_sys_info_xx()' in 'tdx_global_metadata.c'.

Using the generated C is simple: 1) include "tdx_global_metadata.h" to
the local "tdx.h"; 2) explicitly include "tdx_global_metadata.c" to the
local "tdx.c" after the read_sys_metadata_field() primitive (which is a
wrapper of TDH.SYS.RD SEAMCALL to read global metadata).

Adding a field is also simple: 1) just add the new field to an existing
structure, or add it with a new structure; 2) re-run the script to
generate the new code; 3) update the existing tdx_global_metadata.{hc}
with the new ones.

For now, use the auto-generated code to read the TDMR related fields and
the aforesaid metadata field "TDX_FEATURES0".

The tdx_global_metadata.{hc} can be generated by running below:

#python tdx_global_metadata.py global_metadata.json \
tdx_global_metadata.h tdx_global_metadata.c

.. where the 'global_metadata.json' can be fetched from [2] and the
'tdx_global_metadata.py' can be found from [3].
