2022-04-07	x86/boot: Port I/O: Add decompression-time support for TDX	Kirill A. Shutemov	1	-0/+61
	Port I/O instructions trigger #VE in the TDX environment. In response to the exception, kernel emulates these instructions using hypercalls. But during early boot, on the decompression stage, it is cumbersome to deal with #VE. It is cleaner to go to hypercalls directly, bypassing #VE handling. Hook up TDX-specific port I/O helpers if booting in TDX environment. Signed-off-by: Kirill A.

2022-04-07	x86/tdx: Detect TDX at early kernel decompression time	Kuppuswamy Sathyanarayanan	1	-0/+16
	The early decompression code does port I/O for its console output. But, handling the decompression-time port I/O demands a different approach from normal runtime because the IDT required to support #VE based port I/O emulation is not yet set up. Paravirtualizing I/O calls during the decompression step is acceptable because the decompression code doesn't have a lot of call sites to IO instruction. To support port I/O in decompression code, TDX must be detected before the decompression code might do port I/O. Detect whether the kernel runs in a TDX guest. Add an early_is_tdx_guest() interface to query the cached TDX guest status in the decompression code. TDX is detected with CPUID. Make cpuid_count() accessible outside boot/cpuflags.c. TDX detection in the main kernel is very similar. Move common bits into <asm/shared/tdx.h>. The actual port I/O paravirtualization will come later in the series.
