TDX uses two EPT pointers, one for the private half of the GPA space and one for the shared half. The private half uses the normal EPT_POINTER vmcs field, which is managed in a special way by the TDX module. For TDX, KVM is not allowed to operate on it directly. The shared half uses a new SHARED_EPT_POINTER field and will be managed by the conventional MMU management operations that operate directly on the EPT root. This means for TDX the .load_mmu_pgd() operation will need to know to use the SHARED_EPT_POINTER field instead of the normal one. Add a new wrapper in x86 ops for load_mmu_pgd() that either directs the write to the existing vmx implementation or a TDX one. tdx_load_mmu_pgd() is so much simpler than vmx_load_mmu_pgd() since for the TDX mode of operation, EPT will always be used and KVM does not need to be involved in virtualization of CR3 behavior. So tdx_load_mmu_pgd() can simply write to SHARED_EPT_POINTER.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
