Michał Kowalczyk e587869e13 [LibOS+Pal] manifest: Remove support for loader.exec and sgx.sigfile
Supporting these options complicates the design of Graphene and loading
logic significantly, providing little useful functionality:
- loader.exec:
    - the main user of it were our tests
    - worked only for the first process spawned inside Graphene, as it
      was a unidirectional manifest->binary mapping, so the child
      process didn't know about the corresponding manifest.
- sgx.sigfile:
    - probably all existing usages of it were completely redundant
    - was resolved relatively to CWD instead of the executable location,
      which made it mostly useless

From now on, the correct location of the files is:
- either place the manifest and sigfile next to the binary, with a
  matching name, or
- create a symlink to the binary in the folder where manifests are
  stored and launch it through this symlink

R example

This directory contains an example for running R in Graphene, including the Makefile and a template for generating the manifest. The application was tested on Ubuntu 16.04, with both normal Linux and SGX platforms.

This example is temporarily broken until we rewrite Graphene loader

Generating the manifest

Building for Linux

Run make (non-debug) or make DEBUG=1 (debug) in the directory.

Building for SGX

Run make SGX=1 (non-debug) or make SGX=1 DEBUG=1 (debug) in the directory.

Building with a local R installation

By default, the make command creates the manifest for the system R binary (/usr/lib/R/bin/exec/R). If you have a local R installation, you may create the manifest with the R_HOME variable set accordingly. For example:

make R_HOME=<install path>/lib/R SGX=1

Run R with Graphene

When running R with Graphene, please use the --vanilla or --no-save option.

Here's an example of running an R script under Graphene:

Without SGX:

./pal_loader R.manifest --slave --vanilla -f scripts/sample.r
./pal_loader R.manifest --slave --vanilla -f scripts/R-benchmark-25.R

With SGX:

SGX=1 ./pal_loader R.manifest --slave --vanilla -f scripts/sample.r
SGX=1 ./pal_loader R.manifest --slave --vanilla -f scripts/R-benchmark-25.R
