SECURE DEBUG OF FPGA DESIGN

Abstract:

Technologies to perform a secure debug of a FPGA are described. In some examples an apparatus comprises an accelerator device comprising processing circuitry to facilitate acceleration of a processing workload executable on a remote processing device, a computer-readable memory to store logic operations executable on the accelerator device, and a debug module. The debug module comprises one or more debug registers to store debug data for the logic operations executable on the accelerator device and processing circuitry to receive, from a debug application on the remote processing device, a memory access request directed to a target debug register of the one or more debug registers, encrypt the debug data in the target debug register to generate encrypted debug data, and return the encrypted debug data to the debug application. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
