You mean before the guest ia created? I sure hope there's a better way to query HV-supported features than grepping /proc/cpuinfo...

The counter-argument to that is we might want sgx2 in /proc/cpuinfo to
mean sgx2
is enabled in hardware _and_ supported by the kernel.  Userspace can
grep for
sgx in /proc/cpuinfo, and use cpuid to discover sgx2, so it's not a
blocker.

Question is, what exactly that flag should denote: that EDMM is supported in the HV and guests can do the dynamic thing of adding/rwmoving EPC pages? Is that the only feature behind SGX2?

That being said, adding some form of capability/versioning to SGX seems
inevitable, not sure it's worth witholding sgx2 from /proc/cpuinfo.

See what I typed earlier - no objections from me if a proper use case is identified and written down.

Thx.
