Hi Jarkko,
I am reluctant to change to /dev/sgx_vepc now, because there are lots of
'sgx_virt_epc' in the code. For instance, 'struct sgx_virt_epc', and function names
in sgx/virt.c are all sgx_virt_epc_xxx(), which has 'sgx_virt_epc' as prefix. I feel
changing to /dev/sgx_vepc only is kinda incomplete, but I really don't want to change
so many 'sgx_virt_epc' to 'sgx_vepc'.
(Plus I still think 'virt_epc' is more obvious than 'vepc' from userspace's
perspective.)
Does it make sense?
