    Abstract: In one embodiment, a processor includes circuitry to decode an instruction referencing an encoded data pointer that includes a set of plaintext linear address bits and a set of encrypted linear address bits. The processor also includes circuitry to perform a speculative lookup in a translation lookaside buffer (TLB) using the plaintext linear address bits to obtain physical address, buffer a set of architectural predictor state values based on the speculative TLB lookup, and speculatively execute the instruction using the physical address obtained from the speculative TLB lookup. The processor also includes circuitry to determine whether the speculative TLB lookup was correct and update a set of architectural predictor state values of the core using the buffered architectural predictor state values based on a determination that the speculative TLB lookup was correct.

    Abstract: A low-latency digital-signature with side-channel security is described. An example of an apparatus includes a coefficient multiplier circuit to perform polynomial multiplication, the coefficient multiplier circuit providing Number Theoretic Transform (NTT) and INTT (Inverse NTT) processing; and one or more accessory operation circuits coupled with the coefficient multiplier circuit, each of the one or more accessory operation circuits to perform a computation based at least in part on a result of an operation of the NTT/INTT coefficient multiplier circuit, wherein the one or more accessory operation circuits are to receive results of operations of the NTT/INTT coefficient multiplier circuit prior to the results being stored in a memory.

    Abstract: An apparatus includes a first integrated circuit disposed on a first die, a second integrated circuit disposed on a second die, an interconnect to provide a communication connection between the first die and the second die. The first die comprises a processing circuitry to generate a first message authentication code (MAC) tag using a first message data to be communicated from the first die to the second die and a first cryptographic key, and transmit the first message data and the first MAC tag to the second die via the interconnect.

    Abstract: A method comprises receiving an image of an update for a software module, a rate parameter, an index parameter, and a public key, generating a 32-byte aligned string, computing a state parameter using the 32-byte aligned string, generating a modified message representative, computing a Merkle Tree root node, and in response to a determination that the Merkle Tree root node matches the public key, forwarding, to a remote device, the image of the update for a software module, the state parameter; and the modified message representative.
