+TDVF Overview
+-------------
+
+<b>Intel Trust Domain Extension (TDX)</b> is Intel Architecture extension
+to provide trusted, isolated VM execution by removing CSP software
+(hypervisor etc) from the TCB. <b>TDX Virtual Firmware (TDVF)</b> is an
+EDK II based project to enable UEFI support for TDX based Virtual
+Machines. It provides the capability to launch a TD.
+
+The <b>Intel® TDX Virtual Firmware Design Guide</b> is at
+https://www.intel.com/content/dam/develop/external/us/en/documents/tdx-virtual-firmware-design-guide-rev-1.01.pdf.
+
+More information can be found at:
+https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/developer/articles/technical/intel-trust-domain-extensions.html
+
+
+Configurations and Features
+----------------------------
+
+There are 2 configurations for TDVF.
+
+<b>Config-A:</b>
+ - Merge the *basic* TDVF feature to existing OvmfX64Pkg.dsc. (Align
+   with existing SEV)
+ - Threat model: VMM is NOT out of TCB. (We don’t make things worse)
+ - The OvmfX64Pkg.dsc includes SEV/TDX/normal OVMF basic boot capability.
+   The final binary can run on SEV/TDX/normal OVMF.
+ - No changes to existing OvmfPkgX64 image layout.
+ - No need to add additional security features if they do not exist today.
+ - No need to remove features if they exist today.
+ - RTMR is not supported.
+ - PEI phase is NOT skipped in either Td or Non-Td.
+
+<b>Config-B:</b>
+ - (*) Add a standalone IntelTdx.dsc to a TDX specific directory for a *full*
+   feature TDVF.(Align with existing SEV)
+ - (*) Threat model: VMM is out of TCB. (We need necessary change to prevent
+   attack from VMM)
+ - (*) IntelTdx.dsc includes TDX/normal OVMF basic boot capability. The final
+   binary can run on TDX/normal OVMF.
+ - It might eventually merge with AmdSev.dsc, but NOT at this point of
+   time. And we don’t know when it will happen. We need sync with AMD in
+   the community after both of us think the solutions are mature to merge.
+ - Need to add necessary security feature as mandatory requirement, such
+   as RTMR based Trusted Boot support.
+ - Need to measure the external input from Host VMM, such as TdHob, CFV.
+ - Need to measure other external input, such as FW_CFG data, os loader,
+   initrd, etc.
+ - Need to remove unnecessary attack surfaces, such as network stack.
+
+In current stage, <b>Config-A</b> has been merged into edk2-master branch.
+The corresponding pkg file is OvmfPkg/OvmfPkgX64.dsc.
+
+<b>Config-B</b> is split into several waves. The corresponding pkg file is
+OvmfPkg/IntelTdx/IntelTdxX64.dsc. The features with (*) have been implemented
+and merged into edk2-master branch. Others are in upstreaming progress.
+
+Build
+------
+- Build the TDVF (Config-A) target:
+`cd /path/to/edk2`
+`source edksetup.sh`
+`build.sh -p OvmfPkg/OvmfPkgX64.dsc -a X64 -t GCC5`
+
+- Build the TDVF (Config-B) target:
+`cd /path/to/edk2`
+`source edksetup.sh`
+`build.sh -p OvmfPkg/IntelTdx/IntelTdxX64.dsc -a X64 -t GCC5`
+
+Usage
+-----
+
+Assuming TDX-QEMU/TDX-KVM are already built, one can start a TD virtual
+machine as follows:
+
+`$ /path/to/qemu-system-x86_64 \`
+`-accel kvm \`
+`-name process=tdxvm,debug-threads=on \`
+`-smp 2,sockets=1 \`
+`-m 2G -vga none -nographic -no-hpet \`
+`-object tdx-guest,id=tdx,debug=on \`
+`-machine q35,kvm-type=tdx,pic=no,kernel_irqchip=split,confidential-guest-support=tdx \`
+`-device loader,file=/path/to/OVMF.fd,id=fd0 \`
+`-cpu host,pmu=off,-kvm-steal-time \`
+`-chardev stdio,id=mux,mux=on,signal=off,logfile=/path/to/logfile \`
+`-device virtio-serial,romfile= \`
+`-device virtconsole,chardev=mux -serial chardev:mux -monitor chardev:mux \`
+`-drive file=/path/to/guest_img,if=virtio,format=raw`
