+TDX Host Kernel Support
+=======================
+
+TDX introduces a new CPU mode called Secure Arbitration Mode (SEAM) and
+a new isolated range pointed by the SEAM Ranger Register (SEAMRR).  A
+CPU-attested software module called 'the TDX module' runs inside the new
+isolated range to provide the functionalities to manage and run protected
+VMs.
+
+TDX also leverages Intel Multi-Key Total Memory Encryption (MKTME) to
+provide crypto-protection to the VMs.  TDX reserves part of MKTME KeyIDs
+as TDX private KeyIDs, which are only accessible within the SEAM mode.
+BIOS is responsible for partitioning legacy MKTME KeyIDs and TDX KeyIDs.
+
+To enable TDX, BIOS configures SEAMRR and TDX private KeyIDs consistently
+across all CPU packages.  TDX doesn't trust BIOS.  The MCHECK verifies
+all configurations from BIOS are correct and enables SEAMRR.
+
+After TDX is enabled in BIOS, the TDX module needs to be loaded into the
+SEAMRR range and properly initialized, before it can be used to create
+and run protected VMs.
+
+The TDX architecture doesn't require BIOS to load the TDX module, but
+current kernel assumes it is loaded by BIOS (i.e. either directly or by
+some UEFI shell tool) before booting to the kernel.  Current kernel
+detects TDX and initializes the TDX module.
+
+TDX boot-time detection
+-----------------------
+
+Kernel detects TDX and the TDX private KeyIDs during kernel boot.  User
+can see below dmesg if TDX is enabled by BIOS:
+
+|  [..] tdx: SEAMRR enabled.
+|  [..] tdx: TDX private KeyID range: [16, 64).
+|  [..] tdx: TDX enabled by BIOS.
+
+TDX module detection and initialization
+---------------------------------------
+
+There is no CPUID or MSR to detect whether the TDX module.  The kernel
+detects the TDX module by initializing it.
+
+The kernel talks to the TDX module via the new SEAMCALL instruction.  The
+TDX module implements SEAMCALL leaf functions to allow the kernel to
+initialize it.
+
+Initializing the TDX module consumes roughly ~1/256th system RAM size to
+use it as 'metadata' for the TDX memory.  It also takes additional CPU
+time to initialize those metadata along with the TDX module itself.  Both
+are not trivial.  Current kernel doesn't choose to always initialize the
+TDX module during kernel boot, but provides a function tdx_init() to
+allow the caller to initialize TDX when it truly wants to use TDX:
+
+        ret = tdx_init();
+        if (ret)
+                goto no_tdx;
+        // TDX is ready to use
+
+Initializing the TDX module requires all logical CPUs being online and
+are in VMX operation (requirement of making SEAMCALL) during tdx_init().
+Currently, KVM is the only user of TDX.  KVM always guarantees all online
+CPUs are in VMX operation when there's any VM.  Current kernel doesn't
+handle entering VMX operation in tdx_init() but leaves this to the
+caller.
+
+User can consult dmesg to see the presence of the TDX module, and whether
+it has been initialized.
+
+If the TDX module is not loaded, dmesg shows below:
+
+|  [..] tdx: TDX module is not loaded.
+
+If the TDX module is initialized successfully, dmesg shows something
+like below:
+
+|  [..] tdx: TDX module: vendor_id 0x8086, major_version 1, minor_version 0, build_date 20211209, build_num 160
+|  [..] tdx: 65667 pages allocated for PAMT.
+|  [..] tdx: TDX module initialized.
+
+If the TDX module failed to initialize, dmesg shows below:
+
+|  [..] tdx: Failed to initialize TDX module.  Shut it down.
+
+TDX Interaction to Other Kernel Components
+------------------------------------------
+
+CPU Hotplug
+~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+TDX doesn't work with ACPI CPU hotplug.  To guarantee the security MCHECK
+verifies all logical CPUs for all packages during platform boot.  Any
+hot-added CPU is not verified thus cannot support TDX.  A non-buggy BIOS
+should never deliver ACPI CPU hot-add event to the kernel.  Such event is
+reported as BIOS bug and the hot-added CPU is rejected.
+
+TDX requires all boot-time verified logical CPUs being present until
+machine reset.  If kernel receives ACPI CPU hot-removal event, assume the
+kernel cannot continue to work normally so just BUG().
+
+Note TDX works with CPU logical online/offline, thus the kernel still
+allows to offline logical CPU and online it again.
+
+Memory Hotplug
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+The TDX module reports a list of "Convertible Memory Region" (CMR) to
+indicate which memory regions are TDX-capable.  Those regions are
+generated by BIOS and verified by the MCHECK so that they are truly
+present during platform boot and can meet security guarantee.
+
+This means TDX doesn't work with ACPI memory hot-add.  A non-buggy BIOS
+should never deliver ACPI memory hot-add event to the kernel.  Such event
+is reported as BIOS bug and the hot-added memory is rejected.
+
+TDX also doesn't work with ACPI memory hot-removal.  If kernel receives
+ACPI memory hot-removal event, assume the kernel cannot continue to work
+normally so just BUG().
+
+Also, the kernel needs to choose which TDX-capable regions to use as TDX
+memory and pass those regions to the TDX module when it gets initialized.
+Once they are passed to the TDX module, the TDX-usable memory regions are
+fixed during module's lifetime.
+
+To avoid having to modify the page allocator to distinguish TDX and
+non-TDX memory allocation, current kernel guarantees all pages managed by
+the page allocator are TDX memory.  This means any hot-added memory to
+the page allocator will break such guarantee thus should be prevented.
+
+There are basically two memory hot-add cases that need to be prevented:
+ACPI memory hot-add and driver managed memory hot-add.  The kernel
+rejectes the driver managed memory hot-add too when TDX is enabled by
+BIOS.  For instance, dmesg shows below error when using kmem driver to
+add a legacy PMEM as system RAM:
+
+|  [..] tdx: Unable to add memory [0x580000000, 0x600000000) on TDX enabled platform.
+|  [..] kmem dax0.0: mapping0: 0x580000000-0x5ffffffff memory add failed
+
+However, adding new memory to ZONE_DEVICE should not be prevented as
+those pages are not managed by the page allocator.  Therefore,
+memremap_pages() variants are still allowed although they internally
+also uses memory hotplug functions.
+
+Kexec()
+~~~~~~~
+
+TDX (and MKTME) doesn't guarantee cache coherency among different KeyIDs.
+If the TDX module is ever initialized, the kernel needs to flush dirty
+cachelines associated with any TDX private KeyID, otherwise they may
+slightly corrupt the new kernel.
+
+Similar to SME support, the kernel uses wbinvd() to flush cache in
+stop_this_cpu().
+
+The current TDX module architecture doesn't play nicely with kexec().
+The TDX module can only be initialized once during its lifetime, and
+there is no SEAMCALL to reset the module to give a new clean slate to
+the new kernel.  Therefore, ideally, if the module is ever initialized,
+it's better to shut down the module.  The new kernel won't be able to
+use TDX anyway (as it needs to go through the TDX module initialization
+process which will fail immediately at the first step).
+
+However, there's no guarantee CPU is in VMX operation during kexec(), so
+it's impractical to shut down the module.  Current kernel just leaves the
+module in open state.
