MP Driver cannot be skipped in td guest. Because there are other drivers depend on the protocol (gEfiMpServiceProtocolGuid) which is produced by MP driver.
MP service of Td guest is different from the current MP service in EDK2. Td guest implement the MP service by the mechanism of mailbox. Please see [TDVF] 4.3 TDVF AP Handling & [GHCI] 4.1 ACPI MADT Multiprocessor Wakeup Table. [TDVF] https://www.intel.com/content/dam/develop/external/us/en/documents/tdx-virtual-firmware-design-guide-rev-1.01.pdf [GHCI] https://www.intel.com/content/dam/develop/external/us/en/documents/intel-tdx-guest-hypervisor-communication-interface-1.0-344426-002.pdf So here is my suggestion to this problem. In MpInitLib if it is Td guest, then GetNumberOfProcessors just return (NumberOfProcessors=1, NumberOfEnabledProcessors=1). Because only the BSP is workable at this moment. GetProcessorInfo returns EFI_UNSUPPORTED. Because in current stage Td guest doesn't have the MP Service requirement. What's your thought?
