Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias primarily through the use of Windows-specific terminology and claims in example outputs (e.g., 'x-ms-azurevm-is-windows': true, 'x-ms-azurevm-ostype': 'Windows'), and by referencing Windows as the default or only operating system in JSON web token examples. There are no explicit Linux or cross-platform usage examples, nor are Linux-specific tools, claims, or patterns mentioned. The documentation does not provide parity in examples or guidance for Linux-based confidential VMs.
Recommendations
- Include example JSON web tokens and claims for Linux-based confidential VMs, such as 'x-ms-azurevm-ostype': 'Linux' and related fields.
- Explicitly mention that the attestation process and APIs are cross-platform, and provide guidance or notes for both Windows and Linux environments.
- Add Linux-specific operational scenarios or diagrams, or clarify that the described scenarios apply equally to Linux workloads.
- Reference Linux tools or libraries (if available) for guest attestation, or provide sample code snippets for both Windows and Linux.
- Ensure that any sample outputs, especially in the 'JSON web token' section, alternate or include Linux values and not just Windows defaults.
