Examples loading enclave from buffer?

[Daniel_ˢᵍˣ]

Any examples available using sgx_create_enclave_from_buffer_ex and invoking ecalls and ocalls of the loaded enclave?

Hi,

While there are no samples using that function included in the SGX SDK, I am sending you a patch to convert SampleEnclave which uses sgx_create_enclave to sgx_create_enclave_from_buffer_ex (the file type is not supported so I am sending you a PM of it)

You can apply it to the linux-sgx repo. 

Sincerely,

Sahira

Hello,

The patched sample worked, thank you.

A related question:

In terms of security, is there an advantage in using mmap instead of reading the enclave into a buffer (fopen + fread) and using that buffer in sgx_create_enclave_from_buffer_ex?
