I don't think so? I have no objection to conditioning the LSM calls on the page being executable. I actually had the code written that way in the first RFC, but it felt weird for SGX to be making assumptions about LSM use cases. > Also, you seem to be mixing prot and PROT_EXEC with vm_flags and > VM_EXEC; other code does not appear to assume they are identical and > explicitly converts, e.g. calc_vm_prot_bits().
