Intel TDX protects guest VMs from malicious host and certain physical attacks. Pre-TDX Intel hardware has support for a memory encryption architecture called MK-TME, which repurposes several high bits of physical address as "KeyID". The BIOS reserves a sub-range of MK-TME KeyIDs as "TDX private KeyIDs". Each TDX guest must be assigned with a unique TDX KeyID when it is created. The kernel reserves the first TDX private KeyID for crypto-protection of specific TDX module data which has a lifecycle that exceeds the KeyID reserved for the TD's use. The rest of the KeyIDs are left for TDX guests to use. Create a small KeyID allocator. Export tdx_guest_keyid_alloc()/tdx_guest_keyid_free() to allocate and free TDX guest KeyID for KVM to use. Don't provide the stub functions when CONFIG_INTEL_TDX_HOST=n since they are not supposed to be called in this case.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
