+Special notes for injection into SGX enclaves:
+
+There may be a separate BIOS setup option to enable SGX injection.
+
+The injection process consists of setting some special memory controller
+trigger that will inject the error on the next write to the target
+address. But the h/w prevents any software outside of an SGX enclave
+from accessing enclave pages (even BIOS SMM mode).
+
+The following sequence can be used:
+ 1) Determine physical address of enclave page
+ 2) Use "notrigger=1" mode to inject (this will setup
+ the injection address, but will not actually inject)
+ 3) Enter the enclave
+ 4) Store data to the virtual address matching physical address from step 1
+ 5) Execute CLFLUSH for that virtual address
+ 6) Spin delay for 250ms
+ 7) Read from the virtual address. This will trigger the error
