Abstract
Methods, apparatus, and fabrication processes relating to implementing cyclic redundancy checks (CRCs) in processors, such as CRC32 instructions in x86 computer architectures. A method may comprise extracting a first CRC value from a data packet, performing a carryless operation upon the data packet to determine a second CRC value, and determining that a data error is present in the data packet when the first and second CRC values do not match.
