# The module implements "4-bit" GCM GHASH function and underlying
# single multiplication operation in GF(2^128). "4-bit" means that it
# uses 256 bytes per-key table [+64/128 bytes fixed table]. It has two
# code paths: vanilla x86 and vanilla SSE. Former will be executed on
# 486 and Pentium, latter on all others. SSE GHASH features so called
# "528B" variant of "4-bit" method utilizing additional 256+16 bytes
# of per-key storage [+512 bytes shared table]. Performance results
# are for streamed GHASH subroutine and are expressed in cycles per
# processed byte, less is better:
#
# gcc 2.95.3(*) SSE assembler x86 assembler

# Pentium 105/111(**) - 50
# PIII 68 /75 12.2 24
# P4 125/125 17.8 84(***)
# Opteron 66 /70 10.1 30
# Core2 54 /67 8.4 18
# Atom 105/105 16.8 53
# VIA Nano 69 /71 13.0 27
#
# (*) gcc 3.4.x was observed to generate few percent slower code,
# which is one of reasons why 2.95.3 results were chosen,
# another reason is lack of 3.4.x results for older CPUs;
# comparison with SSE results is not completely fair, because C
# results are for vanilla "256B" implementation, while
# assembler results are for "528B";-)
# (**) second number is result for code compiled with -fPIC flag,
# which is actually more relevant, because assembler code is
# position-independent;
# (***) see comment in non-MMX routine for further details;
#
# To summarize, it's >2-5 times faster than gcc-generated code. To
# anchor it to something else SHA1 assembler processes one byte in
# ~7 cycles on contemporary x86 cores. As for choice of MMX/SSE
# in particular, see comment at the end of the file...

#
# Add PCLMULQDQ version performing at 2.10 cycles per processed byte.
# The question is how close is it to theoretical limit? The pclmulqdq
# instruction latency appears to be 14 cycles and there can't be more
# than 2 of them executing at any given time. This means that single
# Karatsuba multiplication would take 28 cycles *plus* few cycles for
# pre- and post-processing. Then multiplication has to be followed by
# modulo-reduction. Given that aggregated reduction method [see
# "Carry-less Multiplication and Its Usage for Computing the GCM Mode"
# white paper by Intel] allows you to perform reduction only once in
# a while we can assume that asymptotic performance can be estimated
# as (28+Tmod/Naggr)/16, where Tmod is time to perform reduction
# and Naggr is the aggregation factor.
#
# Before we proceed to this implementation let's have closer look at
# the best-performing code suggested by Intel in their white paper.
# By tracing inter-register dependencies Tmod is estimated as ~19
# cycles and Naggr chosen by Intel is 4, resulting in 2.05 cycles per
# processed byte. As implied, this is quite optimistic estimate,
# because it does not account for Karatsuba pre- and post-processing,
# which for a single multiplication is ~5 cycles. Unfortunately Intel
# does not provide performance data for GHASH alone. But benchmarking
# AES_GCM_encrypt ripped out of Fig. 15 of the white paper with aadt
# alone resulted in 2.46 cycles per byte of out 16KB buffer. Note that
# the result accounts even for pre-computing of degrees of the hash
# key H, but its portion is negligible at 16KB buffer size.
#
# Moving on to the implementation in question. Tmod is estimated as
# ~13 cycles and Naggr is 2, giving asymptotic performance of ...
# 2.16. How is it possible that measured performance is better than
# optimistic theoretical estimate? There is one thing Intel failed
# to recognize. By serializing GHASH with CTR in same subroutine
# former's performance is really limited to above (Tmul + Tmod/Naggr)
# equation. But if GHASH procedure is detached, the modulo-reduction
# can be interleaved with Naggr-1 multiplications at instruction level
# and under ideal conditions even disappear from the equation. So that
# optimistic theoretical estimate for this implementation is ...
# 28/16=1.75, and not 2.16. Well, it's probably way too optimistic,
# at least for such small Naggr. I'd argue that (28+Tproc/Naggr),
# where Tproc is time required for Karatsuba pre- and post-processing,
# is more realistic estimate. In this case it gives ... 1.91 cycles.
# Or in other words, depending on how well we can interleave reduction
# and one of the two multiplications the performance should be between
# 1.91 and 2.16. As already mentioned, this implementation processes
# one byte out of 8KB buffer in 2.10 cycles, while x86_64 counterpart
# - in 2.02. x86_64 performance is better, because larger register
# bank allows to interleave reduction and multiplication better.
#
# Does it make sense to increase Naggr? To start with it's virtually
# impossible in 32-bit mode, because of limited register bank
# capacity. Otherwise improvement has to be weighed agiainst slower
# setup, as well as code size and complexity increase. As even
# optimistic estimate doesn't promise 30% performance improvement,
# there are currently no plans to increase Naggr.

#
# Tweaked to optimize transitions between integer and FP operations
# on same XMM register, PCLMULQDQ subroutine was measured to process
# one byte in 2.07 cycles on Sandy Bridge, and in 2.12 - on Westmere.
# The minor regression on Westmere is outweighed by ~15% improvement
# on Sandy Bridge. Strangely enough attempt to modify 64-bit code in
# similar manner resulted in almost 20% degradation on Sandy Bridge,
# where original 64-bit code processes one byte in 1.95 cycles.

# For reference, AMD Bulldozer processes one byte in 1.98 cycles in
# 32-bit mode and 1.89 in 64-bit.
# February 2013
#
# Overhaul: aggregate Karatsuba post-processing, improve ILP in
# reduction_alg9. Resulting performance is 1.96 cycles per byte on
# Westmere, 1.95 - on Sandy/Ivy Bridge, 1.76 - on Bulldozer.

# A question was risen about choice of vanilla MMX. Or rather why wasn't
# SSE2 chosen instead? In addition to the fact that MMX runs on legacy
# CPUs such as PIII, "4-bit" MMX version was observed to provide better
# performance than *corresponding* SSE2 one even on contemporary CPUs.
# SSE2 results were provided by Peter-Michael Hager. He maintains SSE2
# implementation featuring full range of lookup-table sizes, but with
# per-invocation lookup table setup. Latter means that table size is
# chosen depending on how much data is to be hashed in every given call,
# more data - larger table. Best reported result for Core2 is ~4 cycles
# per processed byte out of 64KB block. This number accounts even for
# 64KB table setup overhead. As discussed in gcm128.c we choose to be
# more conservative in respect to lookup table sizes, but how do the
# results compare? Minimalistic "256B" MMX version delivers ~11 cycles
# on same platform. As also discussed in gcm128.c, next in line "8-bit
# Shoup's" or "4KB" method should deliver twice the performance of
# "256B" one, in other words not worse than ~6 cycles per byte. It
# should be also be noted that in SSE2 case improvement can be "super-
# linear," i.e. more than twice, mostly because >>8 maps to single
# instruction on SSE2 register. This is unlike "4-bit" case when >>4
# maps to same amount of instructions in both MMX and SSE2 cases.
# Bottom line is that switch to SSE2 is considered to be justifiable
# only in case we choose to implement "8-bit" method...
