On systems with TDX (Trust Domain eXtensions) enabled, current kernel
checks the TDX compatibility of the hot-added memory ranges through a
memory hotplug notifier for each memory_block. If a memory range
which isn't TDX compatible is hot-added, for example, some CXL memory,
the command line as follows,
$ echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/node/nodeX/memoryY/online
will report something like,
bash: echo: write error: Operation not permitted
If pr_debug() is enabled, current kernel will show the error message
like below in the kernel log,
online_pages [mem 0xXXXXXXXXXX-0xXXXXXXXXXX] failed
Both are too general to root cause the problem. This may confuse
users. One solution is to print some error messages in the TDX memory
hotplug notifier. However, kernel calls memory hotplug notifiers for
each memory block, so this may lead to a large volume of messages in
the kernel log if a large number of memory blocks are onlined with a
script or automatically. For example, the typical size of memory
block is 128MB on x86_64, when online 64GB CXL memory, 512 messages
will be logged.
Therefore, this patch checks the TDX compatibility of the whole
hot-adding memory range through a newly added architecture specific
function (arch_check_hotplug_memory_range()). If this patch rejects
the memory hot-adding for TDX compatibility, it will output a kernel
log message like below,
virt/tdx: Reject hot-adding memory range: 0xXXXXXXXX-0xXXXXXXXX for TDX compatibility.
The target use case is to support CXL memory on TDX enabled systems.
If the CXL memory isn't compatible with TDX, the kernel will reject
the whole CXL memory range. While the CXL memory can still be used
via devdax interface.
This also makes the original TDX memory hotplug notifier useless, so
this patch deletes it.

I think this is more clear and much more succinct:

No "we's" please.
I'd probably explain it like this:
/*
* By convention, all RAM in the buddy must be TDX compatible whenever
* TDX is enabled. This avoids having to do extra work later to find
* TDX compatible memory to run VMs. Enforce that convention and reject
* attempted hot-adds of any TDX-incompatible ranges.
*
* Returns 0 to pass the checks and allow the hot-add
* Returns -ERRNO to fail the checks and reject the hot-add

The changelog also needs _some_ discussion of why the locking context is
the same between the old and new uses of this function and why this
doesn't need any locking _here_.

Hi, Dave,
