So how much of the hardware side of vTOM are you actually using besides
the actual encryption?

Virtual TOM MSR (C001_0135)? Anything else?

AFAICT, you're passing the vTOM value from CPUID from the hypervisor so
I'm guessing that happens underneath in the hypervisor?

I'd like to make sure there are no more "surprises" down the road...

Thx.
