Abstract: Systems, methods, and apparatuses to support encrypted remote direct memory access for live migration of a virtual machine are described. In one embodiment, a first computer system includes an encryption circuit in a hardware processor of the first computer system to encrypt data, a memory controller circuit, of the first computer system, comprising a port to couple to a network interface controller circuit, a direct memory access engine circuit of the first computer system to access a memory in the first computer system, and the hardware processor to, for a request to perform a live migration of a virtual machine from the first computer system to a second computer system via the network interface controller circuit: encrypt code and data of the virtual machine from the memory with an encryption key by the encryption circuit of the hardware processor, store the encrypted code and data of the virtual machine within a migration buffer of the memory of the first computer system by the direct memory access engine circuit, and cause the network interface controller circuit to send the encrypted code and data of the virtual machine from the migration buffer to the second computer system via the network interface controller circuit without the network interface controller circuit performing an additional encryption.
