Is it better to append all CPUIDs directly into this structure, perhaps at end
of this structure, to make it more consistent with TD_PARAMS?

Also, I think somewhere in commit message or comments we should explain why
CPUIDs are passed here (why existing KVM_SET_CUPID2 is not sufficient).


Indeed, it would be easier to use the existing cpuid data in struct kvm_vcpu, because right now there is no way to ensure that they are consistent.

Why is KVM_SET_CPUID2 not enough?  Are there any modifications done by KVM that affect the measurement?

Then we get the situation that KVM_TDX_INIT_VM must be called after 1 vcpu is created. It seems illogical that it has chance to fail the VM scope initialization after 1 vcpu is successfully created.

Thanks,

Paolo
