In general, in one aspect, the disclosure describes a processing unit that includes a datapath having an input buffer, at least one memory, and an arithmetic logic unit, and control logic having access to a program instruction control store. The control logic controls operation of the datapath and may concurrently cause the datapath to operate in response to different instructions that use different sections of the datapath, wherein the different sections of the datapath comprise a first section transferring data from an input buffer to the memory and a second section transferring data from the memory to the arithmetic logic unit.

In general, in one aspect, the disclosure describes a processing unit that includes a memory, an arithmetic logic unit, and control logic having access to program instructions of a control store. The control logic includes logic to access multiple sets of variables, variables in the different sets of variables being identically referenced by instructions, associate a one of the sets of variables as the current set of variables to be used in instructions that are executed by the arithmetic logic unit, change the set of variables associated with the current set of variables in response to a procedure call or exit, and alter the value of a variable of a set of the variables other than the set of variables associated with the current set of variables in response to an instruction.
摘要:
An area efficient multiplier having high performance at modest clock speeds is presented. The performance of the multiplier is based on optimal choice of a number of levels of Karatsuba decomposition. The multiplier may be used to perform efficient modular reduction of large numbers greater than the size of the multiplier.

The present disclosure provides a method for instruction processing. The method may include adding a first operand from a first register, a second operand from a second register and a carry input bit to generate a sum and a carry out bit. The method may further include loading the sum into a third register and loading the carry out bit into a most significant bit position of the third register to generate a third operand. The method may also include performing a single bit shift on the third operand via a shifter unit to produce a shifted operand and loading the shifted operand into the fourth register. The method may further include loading a least significant bit from the sum into the most significant bit position of the fourth register to generate a fourth operand. The method may additionally include generating a greatest common divisor (GCD) of the first and second operands via the fourth operand and generating a public key based on, at least in part, the GCD. Of course, many alternatives, variations and modifications are possible without departing from this embodiment.

The present disclosure provides a system and method for performing carry/borrow handling. A method according to one embodiment may include generating a first result having a first carry or borrow from a first mathematical operation and storing the first carry or borrow and a first pointer address in a temporary register. The method may further include generating a second result having a second carry or borrow from a second mathematical operation and calling a subroutine configured to perform carry and borrow handling. The method may also include copying the first pointer address from the temporary register into a global variable. Of course, many alternatives, variations and modifications are possible without departing from this embodiment.
