Subject: [PATCH v3] x86/virt/tdx: Do not print error message on non-present feature
Date: Mon, 2 Nov 2026 07:51:38 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <27b6d824f7aee7078167944ce96d95676eee25cb.1793602266.git.jirislaby@kernel.org> (raw)
Before commit 165e77353831 below, the kernel did not print anything
during boot if X86_FEATURE_TDX_HOST_PLATFORM was not present, unless TDX
enablement was explicitly requested via a module parameter.
After the commit, when attempting to load TDX automatically, this is
emitted to the log:
virt/tdx: TDX not supported by the host platform
It is emitted with the "error" level, hence it is disturbing. It is not
an error to run CPUs without the feature.
Drop this silent-boot-breaking error message for the automatic
initialization path.
