Thanks for showing the above related patches, Jarkko! I just take a quick look at that series,
AFAIK, __sgx_vepc_fault() will only be called during VM boot up to allocate physical EPC pages.
Then, host does not know how VM works with those pages. VM SGX driver will handle any errors itself.
So with the approach in that series, what it actually tracks is the vaddr in QEMU address space
for all EPC pages allocated to the VM. Does host need to track such information? QEMU side
should provide it easily I think. @Li, Zhiquan1.
