Abstract: A processor is disclosed and includes at least one core including a first core, and interrupt delay logic. The interrupt delay logic is to receive a first interrupt at a first time and delay the first interrupt from being processed by a first time delay that begins at the first time, unless the first interrupt is pending at a second time when a second interrupt is processed by the first core. If the first interrupt is pending at the second time, the interrupt delay logic is to indicate to the first core to begin to process the first interrupt prior to completion of the first time delay. Other embodiments are disclosed and claimed.

Abstract: Systems and methods for employing hardware-assisted virtualization for implementing a secure video output path. An example processing system comprises: a memory; a shared interconnect; and a processing core communicatively coupled to the memory via the shared interconnect, the processing core to: initialize a first virtual machine and a second virtual machine; responsive to receiving a memory access transaction initiated by the first virtual machine to access a memory buffer, tag the memory access transaction with an identifier of the first virtual machine; and responsive to receiving a digital content decoder access transaction initiated by the second virtual machine, tag the digital decoder access transaction with an identifier of the second virtual machine.

Abstract: A processing system includes an interconnect and a processing core, coupled to the interconnect, to execute a plurality of virtual machines each being identified by a respective identifier, and tag, by an identifier of the first virtual machine, a first transaction initiated by a first virtual machine to access the interconnect.
