Yes:

arch/x86/kernel/cc_platform.c:16:28: error: static declaration of ‘intel_cc_platform_has’ follows non-static declaration

I had already started that function there - please add all TDX logic in
cc_platform.c.

When you do your next set, you can use tip/master as a base. This should
be used for all x86 patchsets anyway.

Yeah, so whether we should be naming the actual conf. computing
implementation came up during the cc_platform_has() review and looking
forward in this patchset:

+       if (cc_platform_has(CC_ATTR_GUEST_TDX))
+               return tdx_kvm_hypercall(nr, 0, 0, 0, 0);

you really need to test for TDX because you're doing a TDX-specific
hypercall.

Which brings me back to the fastpath use of is_idx_guest(): this
looks to me like a fastpath use - dunno how often one needs to do TDX
hypercalls so I can imagine that for this, the is_tdx_guest() check
should use a static branch.

But only with numbers to show the need for it.

Thx.
