I find this very interesting, in particular considering that things like arithmetics often get implemented using either an input dependent number of instructions, or if with a constant number of instructions, with branches, or if not, with branch-less pointer swapping, instead of branch-less memory swapping. Hence, potentially vulnerable implementations have either of the following features: - branches, except loops with a number of iterations that must only depend on public parameter values (such as "bit sizes"), - value dependent memory access, including branch-less pointer swapping Conversely, any algorithm that can be implemented in such way that the number of instructions performed, and the memory addresses accessed, *do not* depend of the value of the arguments, can only be vulnerable if the CPU itself does not execute individual instructions in constant time.
