| Opcode/Instruction | Op/En | 64/32 bit Mode Support | CPUID Feature Flag | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| EAX = 02H ENCLV[ESETCONTEXT] | IR | V/V | EAX[5] | This leaf function sets the ENCLAVECONTEXT field in SECS. |
| Op/En | EAX | RCX | RDX |
| IR | ESETCONTEXT (In) | Address of the destination EPC page (In, EA) | Context Value (In, EA) |
The ESETCONTEXT leaf overwrites the ENCLAVECONTEXT field in the SECS. ECREATE and ELD of an SECS set the ENCLAVECONTEXT field in the SECS to the address of the SECS (for access later in ERDINFO). The ESETCONTEXT instruction allows a VMM to overwrite the default context value if necessary, for example, if the VMM is emulating ECREATE or ELD on behalf of the guest.
The content of RCX is an effective address of the SECS page to be updated, RDX contains the address pointing to the value to be stored in the SECS. The DS segment is used to create linear address. Segment override is not supported.
The instruction fails if:
| EPCPAGE | CONTEXT |
| Read access permitted by Enclave | Read/Write access permitted by Non Enclave |
The instruction faults if any of the following:
| A memory operand effective address is outside the DS segment limit (32b mode). | A memory operand is not properly aligned. |
| DS segment is unusable (32b mode). | A page fault occurs in accessing memory operands. |
| A memory address is in a non-canonical form (64b mode). |
