Abstract:
Embodiments of apparatus, computer-implemented methods, systems, devices, and computer-readable media are described herein for identifying and encrypting a subset of a plurality of instructions, for execution in a more secure execution environment, In various embodiments, the subset may include a single entry point and a single exit point. In various embodiments, one or more instructions of the plurality of instructions that precede or follow the subset may be executed in a first execution environment with a first security level. In various embodiments, the subset may be executed in a second execution environment with a second security level that is more secure than the first security level.
Abstract:
Embodiments of an invention for memory management in secure enclaves are disclosed. In one embodiment, a processor includes an instruction unit and an execution unit. The instruction unit is to receive a first instruction and a second instruction. The execution unit is to execute the first instruction, wherein execution of the first instruction includes allocating a page in an enclave page cache to a secure enclave. The execution unit is also to execute the second instruction, wherein execution of the second instruction includes confirming the allocation of the page.
Abstract:
Embodiments of an invention for paging in secure enclaves are disclosed. In one embodiment, a processor includes an instruction unit and an execution unit. The instruction unit is to receive a first instruction. The execution unit is to execute the first instruction, wherein execution of the first instruction includes evicting a first page from an enclave page cache.
