EMODPR—Restrict the Permissions of an EPC Page  

Instruction Operand Encoding

Description

This leaf function restricts the access rights associated with an EPC page in an initialized enclave. THE RWX bits of 
the SECINFO parameter are treated as a permissions mask; supplying a value that does not restrict the page 
permissions will have no effect. This instruction can only be executed when current privilege level is 0.
RBX contains the effective address of a SECINFO structure while RCX contains the effective address of an EPC page. 
The table below provides additional information on the memory parameter of the EMODPR leaf function.
