Abstract
Described herein are systems and methods for introducing noise in threaded execution to mitigate cross-thread monitoring. For example, some systems include an integrated circuit including a processor pipeline that is configured to execute instructions using an architectural state of a processor core; data storage circuitry configured to store a thread identifier; and a random parameter generator. The integrated circuit may be configured to: determine a time for insertion based on a random parameter generated using the random parameter generator; at the time for insertion, insert one or more instructions in the processor pipeline by participating in thread arbitration using the thread identifier; and execute the one or more instructions using one or more execution units of the processor pipeline.
