So, how is this supposed to work? Patch #2 introduces attributes as
user-settable property. So do users have to manually figure and pass
the correct value, so the check passes? Specifically the fixed1 check?
I think 'attributes' should not be user-settable in the first place.
Each feature-bit which is actually user-settable (and not already
covered by another option like pmu) should be a separate attribute for
tdx-object. Then the tdx code can create attributes from hardware
capabilities and user settings.
In patch #2, tdx-guest.attributes is defined as a field to hold a 64 bits
value of attributes but it doesn't provide any getter/setter for it. So it's
*not* user-settable.
Ok. Why it is declared as object property in the first place then?
