Thanks Paolo, i will send Qemu patch once this patchset is accepted.

This day, i also did corner cases test and updated related Qemu reset patch.

do {
ret = ioctl(fd, SGX_IOC_VEPC_REMOVE);
/* this printf is only for debug*/
printf("-------sgx ret=%d and n=%d---\n", ret, n++);
if(ret)
sleep(1);
} while (ret);

(1). The VEPC size=10M, start 4 enclaves(each ~2G size) in the VM side.
then do the 'system_reset' in the Qemu monitor tool.

(2). The VEPC size=10G, start 500 enclaves(each ~20M size) in the VM side.
then do the 'system_reset' in the Qemu monitor tool.

The ret will show the failures number(SECS pages number, 4 and 500) got from kernel side,
after sleep 1s, the ioctl will return 0 failures.

If this reset is triggered by guest bios, there is 0 SECS page got from kernel, which will
not block VM booting.

So, until now, the kernel patches work well. If any new issue, i will update it to all. thanks!

Yang
