More memory for larger programs #30

Open Syscoder1441 opened 8 years ago

Syscoder1441 commented 8 years ago

How can we run programs with greater memory requirements in opensgx? I changed the NUM_EPC and ENCLAVE_SIZE in qemu/target-i386/SGX.h and rebuilt qemu, but when I run the hello program, I see no changes in pre-allocated EPC SSA region and Heap region. I was able to compile my program using opensgx but I get a seg fault when running it. I suspect it is because of the limits in the size of the enclave.

You must modify three header files:

qemu/target-i386/sgx.h libsgx/musl-libc/include/sgx-shared.h user/share/include/sgx-shared.h

There is NUM_EPC in each header. If you need more heap region, just increase the value of HEAP_PAGE_FRAMES too.

The size of EPC SSA region (and other memory sizes) is determined by sys_create_enclave() function in user/sgx-kern.c file. Check out the variable named ssa_npages.

Since the following three lines (477~479 in user/sgx-kern.c file) can cause a side effect, you should be careful to change the size of each region:

int npages = sec_npages + tcs_npages + tls_npages \ + code_pages + ssa_npages + stack_npages + heap_npages; npages = rop2(npages);

rop2(A) gets the least integer larger than npages that is a power of 2. If your setting makes rop2(npages) larger than NUM_EPC specified in qemu/target-i386/sgx.h (i.e., the number of EPC provided by the hardware), alloc_epc_pages() in line 483 cannot allocate the EPC.

Thanks. I was able to increase the heap size but when I increase the ssa_npages variable it crashes.

I'm still getting a segmentation fault. Here are the last few lines. Can you tell what might be the problem.

@Syscoder1441 Have you address the above problem? I met the same problem when I run an application in the opensgx.
