[PATCH v9 22/23] coco/tdx-host: Document TDX module update compatibility criteria

[Chao Gao <chao.gao@intel.com>]

The TDX module update protocol facilitates compatible runtime updates.

Document the compatibility criteria and indicators of update failures.

Note that runtime TDX module updates are an "update at your own risk"
operation; userspace is responsible for ensuring that the update meets
the compatibility criteria.

+Description:	(Directory) The tdx_module directory implements the fw_upload

+		for the general description of the attributes @data, @cancel,
+		@error, @loading, @remaining_size, and @status. This ABI
+		facilitates "Compatible TDX module Updates". A compatible update
+		is one that meets the following criteria:
+
+		   Does not interrupt or interfere with any current TDX
+		   operation or TD VM.
+
+		   Does not invalidate any previously consumed module metadata
+		   values outside of the TEE_TCB_SVN_2 field (updated Security
+		   Version Number) in TD Quotes.
+
+		   Does not require validation of new module metadata fields. By
+		   implication, new module features and capabilities are only
+		   available by installing the module at reboot (BIOS or EFI
+		   helper loaded).
+
+		See tdx_host/firmware/tdx_module/error for information on

+Description:	(RO) See Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-class-firmware for
+		baseline expectations for this file. The <ERROR> part in the
+		<STATUS>:<ERROR> format can be:
+
+		   "device-busy": The update conflicted with an ongoing
+		   compatibility-sensitive operation.
+
+		   "firmware-invalid": The update failed for any other reason.
+
+		"firmware-invalid" may be fatal, causing all TDs and the TDX
+		module to be lost and preventing further TDX operations. This
+		occurs when reading /sys/devices/faux/tdx_host/version returns
+		-ENXIO.
