OK, so you're basically saying it managed to update the SVN on real hardware. You also had to go run an enclave or at least open /dev/sgx, right? Also, does this tag mean, "I tested this in my company's environment and this ABI is sufficient for us until the end of time?" Because there was also some feedback on earlier work that this series as-is was going to be insufficient.
