This is ABI between the guest BIOS and Guest OS. It is defined in the OVMF. https://github.com/tianocore/edk2/blob/master/OvmfPkg/Include/Guid/ConfidentialComputingSevSnpBlob.h SEV-SNP FW spec does not have it documented; it's up to the guest BIOS on how it wants to communicate the Secrets and CPUID page location to guest OS.
I searched through all of the specs to which you linked in the cover letter. I looked for "blob", "guid", the magic and part of the GUID itself trying to find where this is defined to see if the struct is correct. I couldn't find anything. Where is the spec for this blob? How large is it? Did you mean to leave a 4-byte hole after secrets_len and before cpuid_phys?
Yes, the length is never going to be > 4GB.
