Because TDVMCALLs defined in the GHCI specification only use registers R10-R15, only those registers are currently exposed. However, the TDVMCALL ABI allows the use of input registers such as RBX, RBP, RDI, RSI, R8 or R9. Instead of creating a new variant of __tdx_hypercall() to handle your use case, perhaps you can add the registers you require to the TDVMCALL EXPOSE REGS MASK. You just need to make sure they are zeroed out for other users of __tdx_hypercall(). > > PS, the comment before __tdx_hypercall() contains this line: > > "* RBX, RBP, RDI, RSI - Used to pass VMCALL sub function specific > arguments." > > But it looks like currently RBX an RBP are not used at all in > arch/x86/coco/tdx/tdcall.S ? > -- Sathyanarayanan Kuppuswamy Linux Kernel Developer
