This stuff is so interesting. D.J. Bernstein is certainly prolific! It's cool how processor-specific that cache-based attack is. It's weird, I have a compilers background but (evidently) I've never even thought about timing attacks. There isn't a lot of overlap between the PL and crypto communities I guess. I know we used to use asm volatile with gcc but apparently that isn't even a guaranteed scheduling barrier anymore.
Anyway, my curiosity is satisfied for now, but thanks again for sharing, and keep posting about this stuff.
