And I always aim to get things more readable. Thank you.

It was meant as a test program but I'd guess what you say is true
because it also might be the only alternative user space to Intel's
:-) And a great starting point if you want to do things from scratch.

Because I meant it as a smoke test program for SGX, not everything is
too well documented but given the multipurpose use for that code I'll
make the improvements that you are suggesting.
