In TDX the guest firmware is designed to publish a multiprocessor-wakeup
structure to let the guest-bootstrap processor wake up guest-application
processors with a mailbox. The mailbox is memory that the guest firmware
can reserve so each guest virtual processor can have the guest OS send
a message to them. The address of the mailbox is recorded in the MADT
table. See [ACPI].
To maintain the simplicity of the AcpiPlatformDxe, the MADT ACPI table
will be altered in another driver (TdxDxe) by installing a protocol
to notify that the ACPI table provided by Qemu is ready. Then in TdxDxe
a notification functioin will be called to alter the MADT table to recorded
the mailbox address.
The protocol is gQemuAcpiTableNotifyProtocolGuid.
