    Abstract: Embodiments are directed to post quantum public key signature operation for reconfigurable circuit devices. An embodiment of an apparatus includes one or more processors; and a reconfigurable circuit device, the reconfigurable circuit device including a dedicated cryptographic hash hardware engine, and a reconfigurable fabric including logic elements (LEs), wherein the one or more processors are to configure the reconfigurable circuit device for public key signature operation, including mapping a state machine for public key generation and verification to the reconfigurable fabric, including mapping one or more cryptographic hash engines to the reconfigurable fabric, and combining the dedicated cryptographic hash hardware engine with the one or more mapped cryptographic hash engines for cryptographic signature generation and verification.

    Abstract: Methods and apparatuses relating to a hashing accelerator having a frequency scaled message scheduler data path circuit are described. In one embodiment, a hardware accelerator includes a message digest data path circuit comprising a first message digest circuit to output a second state vector, at a first clock rate, based on a first state vector and an output from a first switch, and a second message digest circuit to output a third state vector, at the first clock rate, based on the second state vector and an output from a second switch; a message scheduler data path circuit comprising at least one first message scheduler circuit to output an element into a second message vector, at a second clock rate that is slower than the first clock rate, based on a plurality of elements of a first message vector, and at least one second message scheduler circuit to output an element into a fourth message vector, at the second clock rate that is slower than the first clock rate, based on a plurality of elements of a third message vector; and a controller to switch the first switch at the second clock rate between sourcing a first element of the first message vector and a first element of the third message vector as the output from the first switch, and switch the second switch at the second clock rate between sourcing a second element of the first message vector and a second element of the third message vector as the output from the second switch.

    Abstract: Disclosed embodiments relate to a variable format, variable sparsity matrix multiplication (VFVSMM) instruction. In one example, a processor includes fetch and decode circuitry to fetch and decode a VFVSMM instruction specifying locations of A, B, and C matrices having (M×K), (K×N), and (M×N) elements, respectively, execution circuitry, responsive to the decoded VFVSMM instruction, to: route each row of the specified A matrix, staggering subsequent rows, into corresponding rows of a (M×N) processing array, and route each column of the specified B matrix, staggering subsequent columns, into corresponding columns of the processing array, wherein each of the processing units is to generate K products of A-matrix elements and matching B-matrix elements having a same row address as a column address of the A-matrix element, and to accumulate each generated product with a corresponding C-matrix element.
