SGX and hyperthreading with executors

[Edwardbr]

Hi I am interested in running executors inside enclaves.  This is a piece of code that runs permanently in a loop picking up pieces of work and executing them. 

Currently I have hyperthreading turned off due to spectre concerns.  If I were to have them enabled and if both threads in that core were running the same executor loop in the same enclave, and if they were never leaving the enclave in a return or an ocall.  Would the recommendations on disabling hyperthreading because of hardware attacks no longer apply?

If so how would I know that both hyperthreads are running in the same enclave before I started executing sensitive data?

Regards

Edward
