In one embodiment, an apparatus includes a bulk write circuit to generate a bulk write message to send to a destination agent to cause the destination agent to write data comprising register contents into a plurality of registers, at least some of the plurality of registers comprising non-consecutive registers. The bulk write message may include a first message header, a first chunk header including an address of a first register of a first subset of the plurality of registers, and a first payload portion having the register contents for the first subset of the plurality of registers. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

System, apparatus and method for bulk register accesses in a processor

A measured boot process for an electronic device includes taking a measurement of the early system start up instructions of the electronic device upon a reboot or start-up of the device. A representation of the measurement is stored in a trusted platform module of the electronic device prior to initialization of the trusted platform module. Access is granted to the representation of the measurement stored in the trusted platform module prior to initialization of the trusted platform module thereby enabling the representation of the measurement to serve as the core root of trust for measurement.
