Ok. I will include the TDCALL ABI details here.

Ok. I will fix it in next version.

Yes, you are right. But I can remove that comment. It does not add much
value.

Ok. I will move it up.

Yes. It is possible to call tdx_module_call() without output
pointer.

Examples are TDREPORT and TDACCEPTPAGE.

I will include comment about it.

Since we don't mark R9 as shared in RCX register, we don't expect VMM to
use it. But I am not sure whether TDX module will guarantee it. So, for our
use case, I can use stack for it.

May be I should define a macro for it and use Mov to keep it uniform
with other register updates.

Yes, it is the sub function id. I will fix the comment in next version.

do_tdx_hypercall() is defined and used only in this assembly file.
It is the helper function for __tdx_hypercall() and
__tdx_hypercall_vendor_kvm() functions which needs different values in
R10 register.

But, I am fine with passing it via stack, if this is recommended.

Please let me know.

It is possible to call it without output pointer. I will include comments
about it.

Yes. You are correct. I can clear only R10-R11.

With the trace support, they should be able to see the flow before making
the tdx_*_call(). That should be enough clue for debug right?

Ok. I will follow your recommendation. I have done it this way to fix
checkpatch reports.

If we need helper functions for other output registers in future, we might
have to add the suffix.
