Intel MPX
Intel MPX (Memory Protection Extensions) is a set of extensions to the x86 instruction set architecture. With compiler, runtime library and operating system support, Intel MPX brings increased security to software by checking pointer references whose normal compile-time intentions are maliciously exploited at runtime due to buffer overflows. Intel MPX will introduce new registers, and new instruction set extensions that operate on these registers.[1][2][3][4]
Intel MPX will be introduced as part of the Skylake microarchitecture.[5]
