Thanks for the feedback Tom and Gerd.


I can define a new section type OVMF_SECTION_TYPE_KERNEL_HASHES. In the AmdSev
target it'll cover the single MEMFD page at 00F000 (after the CPUID page).  
Now there's a question for the QEMU side -- should QEMU then fill the page
and encrypt it (launch_update type=NORMAL)? (currently the whole hashes table
creation and encryption is done elsewhere there)

And on regular OvmfX64 builds - should that area should be with type
OVMF_SECTION_TYPE_SNP_SEC_MEM which is accepted as a type=ZERO page ?


Playing with this idea, the metadata list will add:


; Kernel hashes section for measured direct boot
%define OVMF_SECTION_TYPE_KERNEL_HASHES   0x5

...

; Kernel hashes for measured direct boot, or zero page if
; there are no kernel hashes / SEV secrets
SevSnpKernelHashes:
  DD  SEV_SNP_KERNEL_HASHES_BASE
  DD  SEV_SNP_KERNEL_HASHES_SIZE
  DD  SEV_SNP_KERNEL_HASHES_TYPE



and the base/size/type of that region are defined in an
%if statement in ResetVector.nasmb:


%if (FixedPcdGet32 (PcdSevLaunchSecretBase) > 0)
  ; There's a reserved page for SEV secrets and hashes; the VMM will fill and
  ; validate the page
  %define SEV_SNP_KERNEL_HASHES_TYPE    OVMF_SECTION_TYPE_KERNEL_HASHES
  %define SEV_SNP_KERNEL_HASHES_BASE    (FixedPcdGet32 (PcdSevLaunchSecretBase))
%else
  ; No SEV secrets and hashes page; the VMM will validate it as another zero 
page
  %define SEV_SNP_KERNEL_HASHES_TYPE    OVMF_SECTION_TYPE_SNP_SEC_MEM
  %define SEV_SNP_KERNEL_HASHES_BASE    (CPUID_BASE + CPUID_SIZE)
%endif
%define SEV_SNP_KERNEL_HASHES_SIZE    (FixedPcdGet32 (PcdOvmfSecPeiTempRamBase) 
- SEV_SNP_KERNEL_HASHES_BASE)


(I still need to figure out the point about QEMU above.)


Is that what you had in mind?
