Here's another thing. Above, I mention that nothing guarantees that
Tcg2ConfigPei runs before PlatformPei. That raises a problem even if we
use approach (2).

In approach (2), we massage page table entries, and ultimately use

  OvmfPkg/Library/BaseMemEncryptSevLib/PeiMemEncryptSevLib.inf

for that. But that library instance can allocate full pages, in case
page table splitting is needed (from 1GB to 2MB to 4KB).

I can't tell off-hand if such page table splitting will actually occur
when we decrypt the TPM MMIO address range -- but even if it does not,
for whatever reason, I wouldn't like to rely on that particular reason.
And I definitely don't want such page allocations to be satisfied from
the temporary SEC/PEI heap, before we migrate to permanent PEI RAM. See
how "PcdOvmfSecPeiTempRamBase" and "PcdOvmfSecPeiTempRamSize" are set in
the FDF files, and see the OVMF log too:

What I'm saying is that we've probably been missing the following hunk
for a long time now:

In other words, whatever PEIM uses the PeiMemEncryptSevLib instance,
should be delayed until PlatformPei installs the permanent PEI RAM, by
inheriting a gEfiPeiMemoryDiscoveredPpiGuid depex from
PeiMemEncryptSevLib.

... Unfortunately, this wouldn't work, because PlatformPei itself uses
PeiMemEncryptSevLib [*], so we'd create a circular dependency.

[*] first from commit 13b5d743c87a ("OvmfPkg/PlatformPei: Set memory
    encryption PCD when SEV is enabled", 2017-07-10), which called
    MemEncryptSevIsEnabled(),

    and then from commit 449a6e493418 ("OvmfPkg: Create GHCB pages for
    use during Pei and Dxe phase", 2020-08-17), which even called
    MemEncryptSevClearPageEncMask() -- but note that AmdSevInitialize()
    is called *after* PublishPeiMemory(), in PlatformPei!

So, we can't add this "permanent PEI RAM" dependency to
"PeiMemEncryptSevLib.inf" directly. Instead, as a work-around, we should
add the dependency to "Tcg2ConfigPei".

(5a) So ultimately, please update the "Tcg2ConfigPei.inf" file like
this:

(5b) And in the commit message, please state that:

    We don't want PeiMemEncryptSevLib to allocate any pages, for
    potential page table splitting, from the temporary SEC/PEI heap. But
    we can't make PeiMemEncryptSevLib itself depend on
    gEfiPeiMemoryDiscoveredPpiGuid, because PlatformPei, which installs
    the permanent PEI RAM, consumes PeiMemEncryptSevLib too. Thus,
    restrict the DEPEX of Tcg2ConfigPei directly.

--*--

(

Note that, in OVMF, the other PEIM that (indirectly) uses
PeiMemEncryptSevLib is "UefiCpuPkg/CpuMpPei/CpuMpPei.inf". But, the
effective initialization of that PEIM is already delayed until after the
permanent PEI RAM is installed -- not with a depex, but with a notify
callback.

Also note that the library instance

  OvmfPkg/Library/BaseMemEncryptSevLib/SecMemEncryptSevLib.inf

doesn't support manipulating the page tables at all, and so it doesn't
need to allocate memory for page table splitting either. So that's good.

)

Thanks
Laszlo
