encls_failed(9)

💖 NAME 💖

okay so bestie, you're looking at encls_failed(9) from the Kernel API Manual, and its whole personality is checking if an ENCLS function failed. that's it, that's the job. no cap. ✨

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

bool encls_failed (int ret );

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• ret — the return value of an ENCLS function call. that's the value you're feeding in for inspection, bestie. 🔍

🔥 DESCRIPTION 🔥

so here's the vibe check: encls_failed checks if an ENCLS function failed. it counts as failed when the function causes a fault that is not caused by an EPCM conflict, or when the function returns a non-zero value. literally those are the two ways this check says "yep, that failed." 😭

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈

• Kernel file ./arch/x86/kernel/cpu/sgx/encls.h
