It indicates a bug in the kernel or the userspace client if any of the second round of ``SGX_IOC_VEPC_REMOVE_ALL`` calls has a return code other than 0. + + +Cgroup Support +============== + +The "sgx_epc" resource within the Miscellaneous cgroup controller regulates +distribution of SGX EPC memory, which is a subset of system RAM that is used to +provide SGX-enabled applications with protected memory, and is otherwise +inaccessible, i.e. shows up as reserved in /proc/iomem and cannot be +read/written outside of an SGX enclave. + +Although current systems implement EPC by stealing memory from RAM, for all +intents and purposes the EPC is independent from normal system memory, e.g. must +be reserved at boot from RAM and cannot be converted between EPC and normal +memory while the system is running. The EPC is managed by the SGX subsystem and +is not accounted by the memory controller. Note that this is true only for EPC +memory itself, i.e. normal memory allocations related to SGX and EPC memory, +e.g. the backing memory for evicted EPC pages, are accounted, limited and +protected by the memory controller. + +Much like normal system memory, EPC memory can be overcommitted via virtual +memory techniques and pages can be swapped out of the EPC to their backing store +(normal system memory allocated via shmem). The SGX EPC subsystem is analogous +to the memory subsystem, and it implements limit and protection models for EPC +memory. + +SGX EPC Interface Files +----------------------- + +For a generic description of the Miscellaneous controller interface files, +please see Documentation/admin-guide/cgroup-v2.rst + +All SGX EPC memory amounts are in bytes unless explicitly stated otherwise. If +a value which is not PAGE_SIZE aligned is written, the actual value used by the +controller will be rounded down to the closest PAGE_SIZE multiple. + + misc.capacity + A read-only flat-keyed file shown only in the root cgroup. The sgx_epc + resource will show the total amount of EPC memory available on the + platform. + + misc.current + A read-only flat-keyed file shown in the non-root cgroups. The sgx_epc + resource will show the current active EPC memory usage of the cgroup and + its descendants. EPC pages that are swapped out to backing RAM are not + included in the current count. + + misc.max + A read-write single value file which exists on non-root cgroups. The + sgx_epc resource will show the EPC usage hard limit. The default is + "max". + + If a cgroup's EPC usage reaches this limit, EPC allocations, e.g., for + page fault handling, will be blocked until EPC can be reclaimed from the + cgroup. If there are no pages left that are reclaimable within the same + group, the kernel returns ENOMEM. + + The EPC pages allocated for a guest VM by the virtual EPC driver are not + reclaimable by the host kernel. In case the guest cgroup's limit is + reached and no reclaimable pages left in the same cgroup, the virtual + EPC driver returns SIGBUS to the user space process to indicate failure + on new EPC allocation requests. + + The misc.max limit is non-preemptive. If a user writes a limit lower + than the current usage to this file, the cgroup will not preemptively + deallocate pages currently in use, and will only start blocking the next + allocation and reclaiming EPC at that time. + + misc.events + A read-only flat-keyed file which exists on non-root cgroups. + A value change in this file generates a file modified event. + + max + The number of times the cgroup has triggered a reclaim due to + its EPC usage approaching (or exceeding) its max EPC boundary. + +Migration +--------- + +Once an EPC page is charged to a cgroup (during allocation), it remains charged +to the original cgroup until the page is released or reclaimed. Migrating a +process to a different cgroup doesn't move the EPC charges that it incurred +while in the previous cgroup to its new cgroup.
