    Abstract: Methods and apparatuses relating to memory corruption detection are described. In one embodiment, a hardware processor includes an execution unit to execute an instruction to request access to a block of a memory through a pointer to the block of the memory, and a memory management unit to allow access to the block of the memory when a memory corruption detection value in the pointer is validated with a memory corruption detection value in the memory for the block, wherein a position of the memory corruption detection value in the pointer is selectable between a first location and a second, different location.

    Abstract: Methods and apparatuses relating to a hardware memory test unit to check a section of a data storage device for a transient fault before the data is stored in and/or loaded from the section of the data storage device are described. In one embodiment, an integrated circuit includes a hardware processor to operate on data in a section of a data storage device, and a memory test unit to check the section of the data storage device for a transient fault before the data is stored in the section of the data storage device, wherein the transient fault is to cause a machine check exception if accessed by the hardware processor.
