Abstract
Key capability storage circuitryis provided to store a key capability specifying key bounds indicating information indicative of permissible bounds for information specified by any one or more of: a non-capability operand, a capability, or the key capability itself. For a given software compartment executed by the processing circuitry, which lacks a key capability operating privilege associated with at least a portion of the key capability storage circuitry, the processing circuitry is configured to prohibit certain manipulations of the key capability, including a transfer between key capability storage and a memory location selected by the given software compartment. This can help to support temporal safety.
