A relay notifier that observes the underlying endpoint is added as the
notifier for the socket. It broadcasts to its observers when either end
of the channel has IoEvents.
1. Five new ioctl commands of /dev/sgx are added for occlum
applications to securely get and verify DCAP quote;
2. Not all the functions of the intel DCAP package are open to
developers to simplify the DCAP usage;
3. The test may only run on the platform with DCAP driver installed;
4. A macro OCCLUM_DISABLE_DCAP is used to separate the DCAP code from
the other code.
5. Skip DCAP test when DCAP driver is not detected or in simulation mode
1. Implement type-safe functions;
2. Improve the correctness of nearly all the functions;
3. Improve the readability by introducing Listener and Endpoint for StreamUnix;
4. Substitue RingBuf with Channel in Unix socket.
1. >> has higher precedence than &. Use parentheses to conduct & first;
2. In the latest Intel software developer's manual, cpuid leaf 06H EDX
is related to the logical processor.
Before this commit, the epoll implementation works by simply delegating to the
host OS through OCall. One major problem with this implementation is
that it can only handle files that are backed by a file of the host OS
(e.g., sockets), but not those are are mainly implemented by the LibOS
(e.g., pipes). Therefore, a new epoll implementation that can handle all
kinds of files is needed.
This commit completely rewrites the epoll implementation by leveraging
the new event subsystem. Now the new epoll can handle all file types:
1. Host files, e.g., sockets, eventfd;
2. LibOS files, e.g., pipes;
3. Hybrid files, e.g., epoll files.
For a new file type to support epoll, it only neends to implement no
more than four methods of the File trait:
* poll (required for all file types);
* notifier (required for all file files);
* host_fd (only required for host files);
* recv_host_events (only required for host files).
1. Introduce channels, which provide an efficient means for IPC;
2. Leverage channels to rewrite pipe, improving the performance (3X),
robustness, and readability.
This pipe rewrite is not done: some more commits will be added to
implement poll and epoll for pipe.
This commit mainly accomplish two things:
1. Use makefile to manage dependencies for `occlum build`, which can save lots of time
2. Take dirs `build`, `run` outside from `.occlum`. Remove env var "OCCLUM_INSTANCE_DIR"
The new interrupt subsystem breaks the simulation mode in two ways:
1. The signal 64 is not handled by Intel SGX SDK in simulation mode. A
handled real-time signal crashes the process.
2. The newly-enabled test case exit_group depends on interrupts. But
enclave interrupts, like enclave exceptions, are not supported in
simulation mode.
This commit ensures signal 64 is ignored by default and exit_group test
case is not enabled in simulation mode.
Before this commit, events like signals and exit_group are handled by
LibOS threads in a cooperative fashion: if the user code executed by a
LibOS thread does not invoke system calls (e.g., a busy loop), then the LibOS
won't have any opportunity to take control and handle events.
With the help from the POSIX signal-based interrupt mechanism of
Occlum's version of Intel SGX SDK, the LibOS can now interrupt the
execution of arbitrary user code in a LibOS thread by sending real-time
POSIX signals (the signal number is 64) to it. These signals are sent by
a helper thread spawn by Occlum PAL. The helper thread periodically
enters into the enclave to check if there are any LibOS threads with
pending events. If any, the helper thread broadcast POSIX signals to
them. When interrupted by a signal, the receiver LibOS thread may be in
one of the two previously problematic states in terms of event handling:
1. Executing non-cooperative user code (e.g., a busy loop). In this
case, the signal will trigger an interrupt handler inside the enclave,
which can then enter the LibOS kernel to deal with any pending events.
2. Executing an OCall that invokes blocking system calls (e.g., futex,
nanosleep, or blocking I/O). In this case, the signal will interrupt the
blocking system call so that the OCall can return back to the enclave.
Thanks to the new interrupt subsystem, some event-based system calls
are made robust. One such example is exit_group. We can now guarantee
that exit_group can force any thread in a process to exit.
This rewrite serves three purposes:
1. Fix some subtle bugs in the old implementation;
2. Implement mremap using mmap and munmap so that mremap can automatically
enjoy new features (e.g., mprotect and memory permissions) once mmap and
munmap support the feature.
3. Write down the invariants hold by VMManager explictly so that the correctness
of the new implementation can be reason more easily.
Not all config entries are created equal: some are more likely to be
customized by users, some are not so often. This commit reorders the
config entries in descending order of expected popularity.
Update the occlum.json to align with the gen_enclave_conf design.
