The spin lock of sgx_epc_section only locks the page_list. The EREMOVE operation and init_laundry_list is not necessary in the protection range of the spin lock. This patch reduces the lock range of the spin lock in the function sgx_sanitize_section() and only protects the operation of the page_list.
