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: Various examples are directed to systems and methods for securing a data storage device. A storage controller may receive a read request directed to the data storage device. The read request may comprise address data indicating a first address of a first storage location at the data storage device. The storage controller may request from the data storage device a first encrypted data unit stored at the first memory element and a first encrypted set of parity bits, such as Error Correction Code (ECC) bits, associated with the first storage location. An encryption system may decrypt the first encrypted set of parity bits to generate a first set of parity bits based at least in part on an a first location parity key for the first address.

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: System and techniques for multi-tenant cryptographic memory isolation are described herein. A multiple key total memory encryption (MKTME) circuitry may receive a read request for encrypted memory. Here, the read request may include an encrypted memory address that itself includes a sequence of keyid bits and physical address bits. The MKTME circuitry may retrieve a keyid-nonce from a key table using the keyid bits. The MKTME circuitry may construct a tweak from the keyid-nonce, the keyid bits, and the physical address bits. The MKTME circuitry may then decrypt data specified by the read request using the tweak and a common key.

In one embodiment, a processor includes a hardware key, an instruction unit, and an encryption unit. The instruction unit is to receive an encryption instruction and a compare instruction.
