Subject: Re: [PATCH v8 05/16] x86/virt/tdx: Implement functions to make SEAMCALL
Date: Fri, 6 Jan 2023 09:29:33 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <61b9cc00-d514-df77-0a31-88ec35d73456@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <d74565e3f71b6e5e5183f3b736222ec42b6e0b81.1670566861.git.kai.huang@intel.com>
The subject here is a bit too specific. This patch isn't just
"implementing functions". There are more than just functions here. The
best subject is probably:
Add SEAMCALL infrastructure
But that's rather generic by necessity because this patch does several
_different_ logical things:
* Wrap TDX_MODULE_CALL so it can be used for SEAMCALLs with host=1
* Add handling to TDX_MODULE_CALL to allow it to handle specifically
host-side error conditions
* Add high-level seamcall() function with actual error handling
It's probably also worth noting that the code that allows "host=1" to be
passed to TDX_MODULE_CALL is dead code in mainline right now. It
probably shouldn't have been merged this way, but oh well.
I don't know that you really _need_ to split this up, but I'm just
pointing out that mashing three different logical things together makes
it hard to write a coherent Subject. But, I've seen worse.
