How to install Intel SGX SDK on Ubuntu

For developing purposes we need to install the SDK. Just like picking up the driver binary file, we can get the SDK binary file from the following mirror:

• https://01.org/intel-software-guard-extensions/downloads

After making the SDK File executable

• chmod +x sdk.bin

we are able to install the SDK by running

• sudo ./sdk.bin

A wizard will help you to install the SDK. Pay attention to install the SDK to /opt/intel/.In principle the SDK can be installed in any folder, but the installation in /opt/intel saves us later configuration steps.

• Do you want to install in current directory? n
• Please input the directory which you want to install in: /opt/intel

Now we just have to remember to add the environment using source command.

• source /opt/intel/sgxsdk/environment
