+TDX Guest API Documentation
+===================================================================
+
+1. General description
+======================
+
+The TDX guest driver exposes IOCTL interfaces via the /dev/tdx-guest misc
+device to allow userspace to get certain TDX guest-specific details.
+
+2. API description
+==================
+
+In this section, for each supported IOCTL, the following information is
+provided along with a generic description.
+
+:Input parameters: Parameters passed to the IOCTL and related details.
+:Output: Details about output data and return value (with details about
+ the non common error values).
+
+2.1 TDX_CMD_GET_REPORT0
+-----------------------
+
+:Input parameters: struct tdx_report_req
+:Output: Upon successful execution, TDREPORT data is copied to
+ tdx_report_req.tdreport and return 0. Return -EINVAL for invalid
+ operands, -EIO on TDCALL failure or standard error number on other
+ common failures.
+
+The TDX_CMD_GET_REPORT0 IOCTL can be used by the attestation software to get
+the TDREPORT0 (a.k.a. TDREPORT subtype 0) from the TDX module using
+TDCALL[TDG.MR.REPORT].
+
+A subtype index is added at the end of this IOCTL CMD to uniquely identify the
+subtype-specific TDREPORT request. Although the subtype option is mentioned in
+the TDX Module v1.0 specification, section titled "TDG.MR.REPORT", it is not
+currently used, and it expects this value to be 0. So to keep the IOCTL
+implementation simple, the subtype option was not included as part of the input
+ABI. However, in the future, if the TDX Module supports more than one subtype,
+a new IOCTL CMD will be created to handle it. To keep the IOCTL naming
+consistent, a subtype index is added as part of the IOCTL CMD.
