| 20090019342 | Determining a Message Residue - A technique of determining a message residue includes accessing a message and simultaneously determining a set of modular remainders with respect to a polynomial for different respective segments of the message. The technique also includes determining a modular remainder with respect to the polynomial for the message based on the set of modular remainders and a set of constants determined prior to accessing the message. The modular remainder with respect to the polynomial for the message is stored in a memory. | 01-15-2009 |

| 20090287925 | Method and apparatus for performing an authentication after cipher operation in a network processor - A method and apparatus is described for processing of network data packets by a network processor having cipher processing cores and authentication processing cores which operate on data within the network data packets, in order to provide a one-pass ciphering and authentication processing of the network data packets. | 11-19-2009 |
| 20100161536 | PATTERN MATCHING - A method and apparatus to perform pattern matching is provided. The apparatus includes a first storage to store data representing a first set of pattern components, and a second storage to store data representing a second set of pattern components each corresponding to one or more components of the first set of pattern components. A first pattern matcher is configured to detect in an input stream a first component of one or more patterns and to generate a signal indicative of the detection of the first component. A second pattern matcher is configured to receive the signal from the first pattern matcher and to detect if a second component of the one or more patterns of the set of patterns immediately follows the first component in the input stream. | 06-24-2010 |
| 20100332578 | Method and apparatus for performing efficient side-channel attack resistant reduction - A time-invariant method and apparatus for performing modular reduction that is protected against cache-based and branch-based attacks is provided. The modular reduction technique adds no performance penalty and is side-channel resistant. The side-channel resistance is provided through the use of lazy evaluation of carry bits, elimination of data-dependent branches and use of even cache accesses for all memory references. | 12-30-2010 |
| 20110145683 | Instruction-set architecture for programmable cyclic redundancy check (CRC) computations - A method and apparatus to perform Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC) operations on a data block using a plurality of different n-bit polynomials is provided. A flexible CRC instruction performs a CRC operation using a programmable n-bit polynomial. The n-bit polynomial is provided to the CRC instruction by storing the n-bit polynomial in one of two operands. | 06-16-2011 |

The sum may be stored partly in a destination operand indicated by the add instruction and partly a plurality of flags. Other methods are also disclosed, as are apparatus, systems, and instructions on machine-readable medium. | 06-23-2011 |
| 20110153994 | Multiplication Instruction for Which Execution Completes Without Writing a Carry Flag - A method in one aspect may include receiving a multiply instruction. The multiply instruction may indicate a first source operand and a second source operand. A product of the first and second source operands may be stored in one or more destination operands indicated by the multiply instruction. Execution of the multiply instruction may complete without writing a carry flag. Other methods are also disclosed, as are apparatus, systems, and instructions on machine-readable medium. | 06-23-2011 |
| 20110154169 | SYSTEM, METHOD, AND APPARATUS FOR A SCALABLE PROCESSOR ARCHITECTURE FOR A VARIETY OF STRING PROCESSING APPLICATIONS - Systems, methods, and apparatus for a scalable processor architecture for variety of string processing application are described. In one such apparatus, n input first in, first out (FIFO) buffer stores an input stream. A plurality of memory banks store data from the input stream. A re-configurable controller processes the input stream. And an output FIFO buffer stores the processed input stream. | 06-23-2011 |
| 20110161635 | Rotate instructions that complete execution without reading carry flag - A method of one aspect may include receiving a rotate instruction. The rotate instruction may indicate a source operand and a rotate amount. A result may be stored in a destination operand indicated by the rotate instruction. The result may have the source operand rotated by the rotate amount. Execution of the rotate instruction may complete without reading a carry flag. | 06-30-2011 |
