The post_msg_page was removed in commit 9a6b1a170ca8 ("Drivers: hv: vmbus: Remove the per-CPU post_msg_page") However, it turns out that we need to bring it back, but only for a TDX VM with the paravisor: in such a VM, the hyperv_pcpu_input_arg is not decrypted, but the HVCALL_POST_MESSAGE in such a VM needs a decrypted page as the hypercall input page: see the comments in hyperv_init() for a detailed explanation. Except for HVCALL_POST_MESSAGE and HVCALL_SIGNAL_EVENT, the other hypercalls in a TDX VM with the paravisor still use hv_hypercall_pg and must use the hyperv_pcpu_input_arg (which is encrypted in such a VM), when a hypercall input page is used.

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 Restructured Text 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.
