So in current implementation KVM_TDX_INIT_VM must be done before KVM_CREATE_VCPU. Which seems more reasonable conceptually, IMHO. Doing KVM_TDX_INIT_VM after KVM_CREATE_VCPU (well KVM_SET_CPUID2 actually) looks more like a workaround, and it isn't sufficient actually, if we want KVM_TDX_INIT_VM to use vCPU0's CPUID. For that we need to explicitly say: KVM_TDX_INIT_VM must be called after KVM_SET_CPUID2 is called for vCPU0. Which is kinda odd because AFAICT userspace should be able to legally do KVM_SET_CPUID2 in random order all vCPUs. In other words, making KVM_TDX_INIT_VM use vCPU0's CPUID looks more like a workaround, and it is a little bit odd. When something looks odd, it's error-prone. A less odd way is to make KVM_TDX_INIT_VM must be called after KVM_SET_CPUID2 is called for _ALL_ vCPUs. It's _looks_ better, but in practice I am not sure KVM is able to do such check. Also, because CPUID is just one part of the KVM_TDX_INITT_VM, to me we also need ask questions like whether it should be done after other vCPU IOCTL()s (e.g., KVM_SET_MSR etc) because there are more than 1 IOCTLs() to initialize vCPU from userspace. Again, although probably all of above issues are theoretical thing, to me looks it's better to just make KVM_TDX_INIT_VM must be called before creating any vCPU. For CPUID(0x8000_0008), we can request KVM_TDX_INIT_VM to pass it, and KVM can get GPAW/guest.MAXPHYADDR from it. KVM will need to convert this CPUID entry to what TDH.MNG.INIT can accept, but this is what KVM needs to do anyway even it uses vCPU0's CPUID. Sean, any feedback?
