In today's TianoCore Design Meeting we reviewed the Overview Section (from 
slide 1 to 20). Thanks much for the valuable feedbacks and comments. The 
meeting minutes will be sent out soon.

To address the concerns of the *one binary* solution in previous discussion, we 
propose 2 Configurations for TDVF to upstream. (slide 6 - 8)



Config-A:

  *   Merge the *basic* TDVF feature to existing OvmfX64Pkg.dsc. (Align with 
existing SEV)
  *   Threat model: VMM is NOT out of TCB. (We don't make things worse.)
  *   The OvmfX64Pkg.dsc includes SEV/TDX/normal OVMF basic boot capability. 
The final binary can run on SEV/TDX/normal OVMF
  *   No changes to existing OvmfPkgX64 image layout.
  *   No need to add additional security features if they do not exist today
  *   No need to remove features if they exist today.
  *   RTMR is not supported
  *   PEI phase is NOT skipped in either Td or Non-Td



Config-B:

  *   Add a standalone IntelTdx.dsc to a TDX specific directory for a *full* 
feature TDVF. (Align with existing SEV)
  *   Threat model: VMM is out of TCB. (We need necessary change to prevent 
attack from VMM)
  *   IntelTdx.dsc includes TDX/normal OVMF basic boot capability. The final 
binary can run on TDX/normal OVMF
  *   It might eventually merge with AmdSev.dsc, but NOT at this point of time. 
And we don't know when it will happen. We need sync with AMD in the community, 
after both of us think the solutions are mature to merge.
  *   Need to add necessary security feature as mandatory requirement, such as 
RTMR based Trusted Boot support
  *   Need to remove unnecessary attack surfaces, such as network stack.

Hi, All
Thanks much for the valuable comments and discussion about the design.
We have updated the slides (v0.9) in below link. If some comments or concerns 
are not answered/addressed in the new slides, please don't hesitate to tell us. 
We do want to answer/address all the comments/concerns. But to be honest it is 
a rather complicated one and we appreciate your feedbacks.

Thanks much!

We plan to do a design review for TDVF in OVMF package.


The TDVF Design slides for TinaoCore Design Review Meeting (Jun 11) is now 
available in blow link: https://edk2.groups.io/g/devel/files/Designs/2021/0611.

The Bugzilla is https://bugzilla.tianocore.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3429
