I think you are looking into the old spec. Please check the version
"FEBRUARY 2022"

Following are the ABI details:

R11 - TDG.VP.VMCALL< GetQuote > sub-function per Table 2-3
R12 - Shared GPA as input – the memory contains a TDREPORT_STRUCT. The
same buffer is used as output – the memory contains a TD Quote.
R13 - Size of shared GPA. The size must be 4KB-aligned.
