Yeah looks good! I am testing with the macro diff for tr_lock from
https://lore.kernel.org/all/05e27a7a-1faa-944e-2764-6ab4d620fb8f@xxxxxxxxxxxxx/.
If it all works, happy for me to send out v12 with it?

I moved the macro definition up a little to put it between the .code16
and the .align, pushed it out as a commit on top of the above branch.

We'll collapse it into the 'Support parallel startup' patch, yes?


Yes, collapsed with "Support parallel startup of secondary CPUs" patch. I think Thomas' solution to dealing with suspend might be better? So I was thinking of sending v12 on top of v6.2 release with the following diff over your branch (merged in the right commit ofcourse):

I can probably work out how to test the AMD SEV path; is there a
way I can test the startup_64 MADT one?

I guess the easiest way is to create a TDX VM on Sapphire Rapids which I
believe mostly Intel people have access to right now? Maybe we can post
v12 and someone from Intel could just quickly verify if it boots with
it? I have added Yuan from the other thread in here who pointed it out
initially.

Yeah, I should also be able to rustle up both SPR and SEV-SNP if I dig
around at work a little.

Sounds good!
