That's because to enter the secure enclaves, you need operating system help
(those are privileged operations). Communication with the enclave could happen
via socket or pipe or other types of serial IPC (not shared memory).

That's impossible. You can't share memory with a secure enclave *because* it's
secure, so it can't be a thread. See above.
