+sgx - overview of Software Guard eXtensions
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.EX
+.B #include <asm/sgx.h>
+.PP
+.IB enclave " = open(""/dev/sgx_enclave", " O_RDWR);"
+.EE
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+Intel Software Guard eXtensions (SGX) allow applications to host,
+enclaves,
+protected executable objects in memory.
+As software entities enclaves are instances of
+.I /dev/sgx_enclave.
+.PP
+SGX can be available only if the kernel was configured and built with the
+.B CONFIG_X86_SGX
+option.
+You can verify that both the kernel and hardware have SGX enabled by
+checking that "sgx" appears in the
+.I flags
+field in
+.IR /proc/cpuinfo .
+.PP
+SGX must be enabled in BIOS.
+If SGX appears to be unsupported,
+ensure that SGX is enabled in the BIOS.
+If a BIOS presents a choice between
+.I Enabled
+and
+.I Software Enabled
+modes for SGX,
+choose
+.I Enabled.
+.PP
+Enclaves are shared objects, meaning that
+they can be shared with a
+.BR cmsg (3),
+and inherited in a fork.
+.SS Address space
+The address range for an enclave must be reserved with
+.BR mmap (2).
+This must happen before the enclave construction can begin,
+because the enclave page addresses are fixed during its build time.
+.PP
+The CPU requires the size of the enclave to be power of two,
+and the base address to be naturally aligned with the size.
+An appropriate address range can be found by an anonymous mapping:
+.PP
+.EX
+void *area = mmap(NULL, size * 2, PROT_NONE, MAP_PRIVATE | MAP_ANONYMOUS,
+                  -1, 0);
+
+/* Find the first address aligned to the size within the range. */
+void *base = ((uint64_t)area + size - 1) & ~(size - 1);
+.EE
+.PP
+.SS Ioctls
+Enclaves are managed with the
+.BR ioctl (2)
+interface defined and documented in
+.IR <asm/sgx.h>:
+.TP
+.IB SGX_IOC_ENCLAVE_CREATE
+Create SGX Enclave Control Structure (SECS) for an enclave.
+SECS is a hardware defined structure,
+which contains the properties of an enclave,
+such as its base address and size.
+.TP
+.IB SGX_IOC_ENCLAVE_ADD_PAGES
+Populate a range of enclave pages with the page data provided by the caller.
+.TP
+.IB SGX_IOC_ENCLAVE_INIT
+Tell the CPU the prepare the enclave for use.
+After a successful initialization,
+no new pages can be added to the enclave.
+.PP
+The details of what these operations actually mean in the hardware level can be
+found in the Intel Software Developers Manual.
+.SS vDSO
+A process can access enclave by entering into its address space through
+a set of entry points,
+which must be defined during the construction process.
+This requires a complex sequence of CPU instructions,
+and kernel assisted exception handling.
+For these reasons,
+it is encapsulated into
+vDSO interface,
+provided by
+.BR vdso_sgx_enter_enclave_t,
+which is located in
+.IR <asm/sgx.h>.
+.SS Permissions
+In order to build an enclave, a process must be able to call
+.IR mmap (2)
+with
+.IR PROT_EXEC
+set,
+because like for any other type of executable,
+the page table permissions must be set appropriately.
+Therefore,
+.I /dev/sgx_enclave
+must reside in a partition,
+which is not mounted with
+.B noexec
+set in the mount options.
+.PP
+During the build process each enclave page is assigned protection bits,
+as part of
+.BR ioctl(SGX_IOC_ENCLAVE_ADD_PAGES).
+These permissions are also the maximum permissions to which the page can be be mapped.
+If
+.BR mmap (2)
+is called with surpassing permissions,
+it will return
+.B -EACCES.
+If
+.BR ioctl(SGX_IOC_ENCLAVE_ADD_PAGES)
+is called after
+.BR mmap (2)
+with lower permissions,
+the process will eventually receive a
+.BR SIGBUS
+signal,
+once it accesses the page for the first time.
+.SH VERSIONS
+The SGX feature was added in Linux 5.11.
