[PATCH v3 3/5] x86/sgx: Optimize the free_cnt count in sgx_epc_section

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

 



`section->free_cnt` represents the free page in sgx_epc_section,
which is assigned once after initialization. In fact, just after the
initialization is completed, the pages are in the `init_laundry_list`
list and cannot be allocated. This needs to be recovered by EREMOVE
of function sgx_sanitize_section() before it can be used as a page
that can be allocated. The sgx_sanitize_section() will be called in
the kernel thread ksgxd.

This patch moves the initialization of `section->free_cnt` from the
initialization function `sgx_setup_epc_section()` to the function
`sgx_sanitize_section()`, and then accumulates the count after the
successful execution of EREMOVE. This seems to be more reasonable,
free_cnt will also truly reflect the allocatable free pages in EPC.
