Subject: [PATCH v2 08/21] coco/tdx-host: Implement FW_UPLOAD sysfs ABI for TDX Module updates
The firmware upload framework provides a standard mechanism for firmware
updates by allowing device drivers to expose sysfs interfaces for
user-initiated updates.
Register with this framework to expose sysfs interfaces for TDX Module
updates and implement operations to process data blobs supplied by
userspace.
Note that:
1. P-SEAMLDR processes the entire update at once rather than
chunk-by-chunk, so .write() is called only once per update; so the
offset should be always 0.
2. TDX Module Updates complete synchronously within .write(), meaning
.poll_complete() is only called after successful updates and therefore
always returns success
Why fw_upload instead of request_firmware()?
============================================
The explicit file selection capabilities of fw_upload is preferred over
the implicit file selection of request_firmware() for the following
reasons:
a. Intel distributes all versions of the TDX Module, allowing admins to
load any version rather than always defaulting to the latest. This
flexibility is necessary because future extensions may require reverting to
a previous version to clear fatal errors.
b. Some module version series are platform-specific. For example, the 1.5.x
series is for certain platform generations, while the 2.0.x series is
intended for others.
c. The update policy for TDX Module updates is non-linear at times. The
latest TDX Module may not be compatible. For example, TDX Module 1.5.x
may be updated to 1.5.y but not to 1.5.y+1. This policy is documented
separately in a file released along with each TDX Module release.
So, the default policy of "request_firmware()" of "always load latest", is
not suitable for TDX. Userspace needs to deploy a more sophisticated policy
check (e.g., latest may not be compatible), and there is potential
operator choice to consider.
Just have userspace pick rather than add kernel mechanism to change the
default policy of request_firmware().

This enables the kernel to support TDX module runtime update. This
allows the admin to update the TDX module to the same or any newer
