Remove from sgx_validate_secs():

	if (secs->miscselect & sgx_misc_reserved_mask ||
	    secs->attributes & sgx_attributes_reserved_mask ||
	    secs->xfrm & sgx_xfrm_reserved_mask)
		return -EINVAL;

SECS can surpass the platform limits because it's the SIGSTRUCT that
defines the limits that are used at run-time.

What SECS does is that it defines the overall limits that must apply for
any platform, i.e.  SECS limits and platform limits are orthogonal. They
are not dependent.

I think I got this now.

I think it would be less confusing if the variables were renamed as:

- sgx_cpu_misc
- sgx_cpu_attributes
- sgx_cpu_xfrm

These names nail their role better and do not imply any possible
dependency with SIGSTRUCT masks.

'cpu' is better than 'platform' because it is more exact.

Does anyone mind if I do these renames?

You can't remove this wholesale, the kernel should still disallow access to
features that are unknown to the kernel and/or are explicitly disallowed by
the kernel.  E.g. see SGX_ATTR_RESERVED_MASK and SGX_MISC_RESERVED_MASK.

Dropping sgx_xfrm_reserved_mask is ok because the CPU explicitly checks that
XFRM is a strict subset of the current XCR0, though that makes me wonder what
it does with XSS...

If possible send a patch so I can get a changelog reference.

Only thing you need to put as long description is permlink to my
response in this thread.

Thank you.

Sean, I can do the fix, don't worry about it but before I make a backlog
entry I need to challenge this just a bit.

SIGSTRUCT will tell what features we want to run the enclave with, not
SECS, so why you see it a problem that the features are not validated
in SGX_IOC_ENCLAVE_CREATE? I.e. the enclave binary could potentially be
used in different platforms with different kernel versions.
