I am adding a new virt driver to help get the attestation report for the SEV-SNP guest. I understand they both are different, in case of the SEV the attestation is already completed and we are simply exposing the secret provided after the attestation to the userspace, whereas in SNP, the userspace is querying the attestation and will probably derive keys etc based on the attestation report. I am wondering if we should merge both the SEV secret and SNP attestation query in a single driver ? Should we cover usecases where SEV guest is not booted under the EFI ? Also, it appears that this driver need to be manually loaded, should we create a platform device so that the driver binds to platform device and use the resource structure to find the location of the secret data? I was trying to answer some of these questions SNP series.
