We certainly want to be counted in the camp of those who are
applausing you for making the selftests available, particularly the
new VDSO setup and entry code.
We arguably have similar motivations. We architected and authored an
entire SGX runtime that has as its only dependencies the MUSL C
library, libelf and OpenSSL, primarily because we needed an easily
auditable and low footprint SGX implementation.
To the point at hand though, I'm certainly not a very smart guy so I
doubt that I am able to understand the role of the selftests. We do
seem to agree though that they only provide a rudimentary exercise of
the driver.
We also seem to agree that the primary role of the driver is to
service the needs of those of us that are building production level
SGX runtime stacks. In service of that premise, it would be helpful
to know if you are internally testing the driver/VDSO against enclaves
of production quality, with metadata, or just the two page selftest
enclave.
Since Intel signs and releases binary enclaves, (QE, LE, PCE), it
would seem that a load and initialization of these enclaves would
provide a good reference point for all of us to agree on with respect
to basic driver testing and validation.
