[PATCH v7 12/22] x86/virt/tdx: Reset software states during TDX module shutdown
From: Chao Gao
Date: Tue Mar 31 2026 - 08:53:45 EST
The TDX module requires a one-time global initialization (TDH.SYS.INIT) and
per-CPU initialization (TDH.SYS.LP.INIT) before use. These initializations
are guarded by software flags to prevent repetition.
After TDX module updates, the new TDX module requires the same global and
per-CPU initializations, but the existing software flags prevent
re-initialization.
Reset all software flags guarding the initialization flows to allow the
global and per-CPU initializations to be triggered again after updates.
Set tdx_module_status to ERROR to indicate the module is unavailable. This
is to prevent re-initialization/tdx_sysinfo reporting on a failed update.
Using ERROR instead of UNINITIALIZED as the latter implicitly depends on
get_tdx_sys_info() failing early to prevent re-init after successful
shutdown followed by failed update.

v7:
- Use ERROR instead of UNINITIALIZED for tdx_module_status. Both work,
but UNINITIALIZED implicitly depends on get_tdx_sys_info() failing
early to prevent re-initialization after successful shutdown followed
by failed update
- add a comment to explain why no lock is held and re-initialization
isn't a problem.
v6:
- reset tdx_lp_initialized for offlined CPUs and update the comment
accordingly [Kai]
v5:
- add a comment to clarify why state access doesn't require holding a
lock. [Kai]
