Abstract:
Secure memory paging technologies are described. Embodiments of the disclosure may include checking attributes of secure page cache map to determine whether a target page to be evicted is clean and replay protected by a unified version-paging data structure and checking the unified version-paging data structure to determine whether contents of the unified version-paging data structure match the target page. When the target page to be evicted is clean and replay protected and the contents match, the target page can be removed without encrypting the contents of the target page.
