Unable to uninstall SGX Driver

Rama__Klei · ‎06-11-2020

Hi,

I am trying to uninstall sgx driver because I want to get the latest update but when I run uninstall script file located under opt/intel/sgxdriver it give me the following error:

Uninstall failed because the kernel module is in use

I have also stopped aesmd service and I still got the above error.

I have uninstalled Intel SGX SDK and have disablet Intel SGX technology at my BIOS.

Am I missing something?

Hello Klei,

Blacklist intel_sgx, so it does not get loaded, then uninstall.

edit /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf
add line: blacklist intel_sgx
reboot
Now intel_sgx will not be loaded. Test with lsmod | grep intel_sgx.
sudo opt/intel/sgxdriver/uninstall.sh

Regards,
