Re: [openrisc] Encryption



Hi
The new MOTOROLA G5 and INTEL McKinley (IA-64) will have encryption / decryption circuit. Is it possible to add such circuit to OR?

There is a new OS with strong encryption. Several part of OS codes, data and applications are encrypted. After certain part is no longer needed, the part is flushed from memory. 

I have an idea about using such OS with a special version of OR with encryption circuit +  Partitioned CPU cache.  The first part of cache stored encrypted instruction code + data, the second part contain the real instruction code + data (already decrypted). The second part cann't be accessed directly from the chipset / motherboard. Is this idea possible?

Thank you.
