[PATCH v11 1/7] x86/sgx: Add new sgx_epc_page flag bit to mark free pages

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



SGX EPC pages go through the following life cycle:

        DIRTY ---> FREE ---> IN-USE --\
                    ^                 |
                    \-----------------/

Recovery action for poison for a DIRTY or FREE page is simple. Just
make sure never to allocate the page. IN-USE pages need some extra
handling.

Add a new flag bit SGX_EPC_PAGE_IS_FREE that is set when a page
is added to a free list and cleared when the page is allocated.

Notes:

1) These transitions are made while holding the node->lock so that
   future code that checks the flags while holding the node->lock
   can be sure that if the SGX_EPC_PAGE_IS_FREE bit is set, then the
   page is on the free list.

2) Initially while the pages are on the dirty list the
   SGX_EPC_PAGE_IS_FREE bit is cleared.
