Can OCALLs have a return value?

[barratt__samathy]

Hey,

I'm sure this question is answered somewhere in the documentation, but I havent managed to find it, and can't seem to impliment an ocall with a return value.

Is a ocall returning a value possible? Can one do it with pointers, or would that be blocked due to untrusted code attempting to acess trusted memory?

Thanks

OCALLs can return values. You may use pointers but you'll have to specify attributes if you want to copy data out from/back into the enclave.

For additional information, have a look at the Developer Reference, Enclave Development Basics / Calling Functions outside the Enclave and Enclave Development Basics / Enclave Definition Language Syntax / Pointers.
