Install SGX
If you're running a local machine and not a cloud-based VM -
- 1.Go to your BIOS menu
- 2.Enable SGX (Software controlled is not enough)
- 3.Disable Secure Boot
- 4.Disable Hyperthreading (recommended)
sgx_linux_x64_driver_1.41.bin is the latest driver as of March 9th, 2023. Please check under https://download.01.org/intel-sgx/sgx-linux/ that this is still the case. If not, please send us a PR or notify us.If you are a node runner all you must do to install SGX is to save this as a script and run it.
- 1.Download the SGX install script.
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/SecretFoundation/docs/main/docs/node-guides/sgx
Execute the script.
sudo bash sgx
Copy of raw script.
sgx

If the script fails with an error similar to the following:
Failed to fetch https://download.01.org/intel-sgx/sgx_repo/ubuntu/dists/focal/InRelease 503 Service Unavailable [IP: 2a02:26f0:9100:b9e::4b21 443]
it might mean that the SGX apt repo went down, some validators have setup a mirror you can use instead, please modify line 63 of the script above with:
echo "deb [arch=amd64] https://scrt-validator.digiline.io/sgx-mirror/ubuntu $DISTRO main"
and run it again.
To uninstall the Intel(R) SGX Driver, run:
sudo /opt/intel/sgxdriver/uninstall.sh
The above command produces no output when it succeeds. If you want to verify that the driver has been uninstalled, you can run the following, which should print
SGX Driver NOT installed:ls /dev/isgx &>/dev/null && echo "SGX Driver installed" || echo "SGX Driver NOT installed"
To uninstall the SGX SDK, run:
sudo "$HOME"/.sgxsdk/sgxsdk/uninstall.sh
rm -rf "$HOME/.sgxsdk"
To uninstall the rest of the dependencies, run:
sudo apt purge -y libsgx-enclave-common libsgx-enclave-common-dev libsgx-urts sgx-aesm-service libsgx-uae-service libsgx-launch libsgx-aesm-launch-plugin libsgx-ae-le
