Abstract:
A flexible aes instruction set for a general purpose processor is provided. The instruction set includes instructions to perform a “one round” pass for aes encryption or decryption and also includes instructions to perform key generation. An immediate may be used to indicate round number and key size for key generation for 128/192/256 bit keys. The flexible aes instruction set enables full use of pipelining capabilities because it does not require tracking of implicit registers.
Abstract:
A flexible aes instruction for a general purpose processor is provided that performs aes encryption or decryption using n rounds, where n includes the standard aes set of rounds {10, 12, 14}. A parameter is provided to allow the type of aes round to be selected, that is, whether it is a “last round”. In addition to standard aes, the flexible aes instruction allows an AES-like cipher with 20 rounds to be specified or a “one round” pass.
Abstract:
Embodiments of the present disclosure describe methods, apparatus, and system configurations for cyclic redundancy check circuits using Galois-field arithmetic.
Abstract:
A processor of an aspect includes a plurality of packed data registers and a decode unit to decode an instruction. The instruction is to indicate one or more source packed data operands. The one or more source packed data operands are to have four 32-bit results of four prior SMS4 rounds. The one or more source operands are also to have a 32-bit value. An execution unit is coupled with the decode unit and the plurality of the packed data registers. The execution unit, in response to the instruction, is to store a 32-bit result of a current SMS4 round in a destination storage location that is to be indicated by the instruction.

Abstract:
A method of one aspect may include receiving a rotate instruction. The rotate instruction may indicate a source operand and a rotate amount. A result may be stored in a destination operand indicated by the rotate instruction. The result may have the source operand rotated by the rotate amount. Execution of the rotate instruction may complete without reading a carry flag.
Abstract:
Disclosed embodiments relate to matrix compress/decompress instructions. In one example, a processor includes fetch circuitry to fetch a compress instruction having a format with fields to specify an opcode and locations of decompressed source and compressed destination matrices, decode circuitry to decode the fetched compress instructions, and execution circuitry, responsive to the decoded compress instruction, to: generate a compressed result according to a compress algorithm by compressing the specified decompressed source matrix by either packing non-zero-valued elements together and storing the matrix position of each non-zero-valued element in a header, or using fewer bits to represent one or more elements and using the header to identify matrix elements being represented by fewer bits; and store the compressed result to the specified compressed destination matrix.
Abstract:
Instructions and logic provide for a Single Instruction Multiple Data (SIMD) SM4 round slice operation. Embodiments of an instruction specify a first and a second source data operand set, and substitution function indicators, e.g. in an immediate operand. Embodiments of a processor may include encryption units, responsive to the first instruction, to: perform a slice of SM4-round exchanges on a portion of the first source data operand set with a corresponding keys from the second source data operand set in response to a substitution function indicator that indicates a first substitution function, perform a slice of SM4 key generations using another portion of the first source data operand set with corresponding constants from the second source data operand set in response to a substitution function indicator that indicates a second substitution function, and store a set of result elements of the first instruction in a SIMD destination register.
Abstract:
A number of addition instructions are provided that have no data dependency between each other. A first addition instruction stores its carry output in a first flag of a flags register without modifying a second flag in the flags register. A second addition instruction stores its carry output in the second flag of the flags register without modifying the first flag in the flags register.
