The existence of the page is checked first hand for legit race conditions (either two or more concurrent threads running the #PF handler or the reclaimer has taken over the page): /* Page is already resident in the EPC. */ if (entry->epc_page) { if (entry->desc & SGX_ENCL_PAGE_RECLAIMED) return ERR_PTR(-EBUSY); return entry; } After that the existence is a checked as a condition for ELDU. This commit removes the redundant check.
