ADDRESS VALIDATION USING SIGNATURES

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for generating signed addresses. One of the methods includes receiving, by a component from a device, a plurality of first requests, each first request for a physical address and including a virtual address, determining, by the component, a first physical address using the virtual address, generating a first signature for the first physical address, and providing, to the device, a response that includes the first signature, receiving, from the device, a plurality of second requests, each second request for access to a second physical address and including a second signature, determining, by the component for each of the plurality of second requests, whether the second physical address is valid using the second signature, and for each second request for which the second physical address is determined to be valid, servicing the corresponding second request.
