[PATCH 0/7] Add powerpc64 assembly for elliptic curves
by Amitay Isaacs 21 Jan '22

21 Jan '22

Hi, This series of patches add the powerpc64 assembly for modp/redc functions for elliptic curves P192, P224, P256, P384, P521, X25519 and X448. It results in 15-30% performance improvements as measured on POWER9 system using hogweed-benchmark. master ------ name size sign/ms verify/ms ecdsa 192 13.5465 3.8313 ecdsa 224 8.4079 2.5289 ecdsa 256 8.5772 2.4691 ecdsa 384 3.4361 0.9765 ecdsa 521 2.2918 0.6785 eddsa 255 15.0672 4.1138 eddsa 448 4.7115 1.3067 curve 255 15.5206 6.4745 curve 448 4.7906 2.0458 this series ----------- name size sign/ms verify/ms ecdsa 192 17.5450 5.6564 ecdsa 224 10.8847 3.7482 ecdsa 256 11.0208 3.5215 ecdsa 384 5.1133 1.6133 ecdsa 521 2.8815 0.9348 eddsa 255 17.4936 4.9027 eddsa 448 6.0401 1.7075 curve 255 18.1034 7.6884 curve 448 6.1756 2.7095 Amitay Isaacs (3): ecc: Add powerpc64 assembly for ecc_192_modp ecc: Add powerpc64 assembly for ecc_224_modp ecc: Add powerpc64 assembly for ecc_256_redc Martin Schwenke (4): ecc: Add powerpc64 assembly for ecc_384_modp ecc: Add powerpc64 assembly for ecc_521_modp ecc: Add powerpc64 assembly for ecc_25519_modp ecc: Add powerpc64 assembly for ecc_448_modp powerpc64/ecc-curve25519-modp.asm | 103 ++++++++++++++ powerpc64/ecc-curve448-modp.asm | 174 +++++++++++++++++++++++ powerpc64/ecc-secp192r1-modp.asm | 93 ++++++++++++ powerpc64/ecc-secp224r1-modp.asm | 123 ++++++++++++++++ powerpc64/ecc-secp256r1-redc.asm | 144 +++++++++++++++++++ powerpc64/ecc-secp384r1-modp.asm | 227 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ powerpc64/ecc-secp521r1-modp.asm | 166 ++++++++++++++++++++++ 7 files changed, 1030 insertions(+) create mode 100644 powerpc64/ecc-curve25519-modp.asm create mode 100644 powerpc64/ecc-curve448-modp.asm create mode 100644 powerpc64/ecc-secp192r1-modp.asm create mode 100644 powerpc64/ecc-secp224r1-modp.asm create mode 100644 powerpc64/ecc-secp256r1-redc.asm create mode 100644 powerpc64/ecc-secp384r1-modp.asm create mode 100644 powerpc64/ecc-secp521r1-modp.asm -- 2.33.1

[Arm64, S390x] Optimize Chacha20
by Maamoun TK 21 Jan '22

21 Jan '22

I created merge requests that have improvements of Chacha20 for arm64 and s390x architectures by following the approach used in powerpc implementation. https://git.lysator.liu.se/nettle/nettle/-/merge_requests/37 https://git.lysator.liu.se/nettle/nettle/-/merge_requests/40 The patches have 80.85% speedup for arm64 arch and 284.79% speedup for s390x arch. It would be nice if the arm64 patch will be tested on big-endian mode since I don't have access to any big-endian variant for testing. regards, Mamone

[S390x] Optimize various elliptic curve functions
by Maamoun TK 20 Jan '22

20 Jan '22

I created merge requests that have improvements of prime modulo functions of elliptic curves and scalar multiply of curve25519 and curve448 for s390x architecture https://git.lysator.liu.se/nettle/nettle/-/merge_requests/42 https://git.lysator.liu.se/nettle/nettle/-/merge_requests/43 The prime modulo functions are implemented using basic arithmetic instructions (including addition with carry and subtraction with borrow) while scalar multiply of curve25519 and curve448 takes advantage of hardware-accelerated instruction pcc (Perform Cryptographic Computation). Benchmark numbers of the patches are attached to the MR description. regards, Mamone

Status update
by nisse＠lysator.liu.se 18 Dec '21

18 Dec '21

Hi, just a heads up that I'll likely not be very responsive next few weeks. I may or may not get some hacking time during Christmas holidays. What I'd like to do when I get time: Review recent patches for powerpc ecc and sm4. Complete support for ANSI x9.62 (I'm not really up-to-date on the details, but needed square root code is already in, and there's code to do the rest was posted by Wim Lewis long ago). Prepare a new release. Maybe write salsa20 and chacha assembly for more platforms. But not necessarily in that order. Feel free to reply with suggested priorities, and remind me if there's something important that I've missed. Regards, /Niels -- Niels Möller. PGP key CB4962D070D77D7FCB8BA36271D8F1FF368C6677.

Curve point decompression
by Wim Lewis 11 Nov '21

11 Nov '21

I'm looking at implementing elliptic curve point compression a la SEC1 (admittedly, mostly to reduce the number of "feature not supported" code paths in a library, but it seems like a somewhat useful ability). Nettle/Hogweed already implements it internally for curve25519, but I want to implement it for the "secp" curves as well. Point compression is easy enough, but point decompression requires some curve math, potentially dependent on the specific curve, and some of it is redundant with what's already done in ecc_point_set(). So I was thinking about moving this functionality into Hogweed as a function along the lines of ecc_point_set_compressed(), which would take, instead of a y-coordinate, an int containing the sign/parity of the y-coordinate. So my question for the list and for the maintainers is, is this a reasonable API to add to Hogweed? Is there interest in including it in Hogweed if I were to take the time to turn it into a tidy patch?
