Add a tuned variable-time P-256 multiplication function. This reuses wnaf.c's window scheduling, but has access to the tuned field arithemetic and pre-computed base point table. Unlike wnaf.c, we do not make the points affine as it's not worth it for a single table. (We already precomputed the base point table.) Annoyingly, 32-bit x86 gets slower by a bit, but the other platforms are faster. My guess is that that the generic code gets to use the bn_mul_mont assembly and the compiler, faced with the increased 32-bit register pressure and the extremely register-poor x86, is making bad decisions on the otherwise P-256-tuned C code. The three platforms that see much larger gains are significantly more important than 32-bit x86 at this point, so go with this change. armv7a (Nexus 5X) before/after [+14.4%]: Did 2703 ECDSA P-256 verify operations in 5034539us (536.9 ops/sec) Did 3127 ECDSA P-256 verify operations in 5091379us (614.2 ops/sec) aarch64 (Nexus 5X) before/after [+9.2%]: Did 6783 ECDSA P-256 verify operations in 5031324us (1348.2 ops/sec) Did 7410 ECDSA P-256 verify operations in 5033291us (1472.2 ops/sec) x86 before/after [-2.7%]: Did 8961 ECDSA P-256 verify operations in 10075901us (889.3 ops/sec) Did 8568 ECDSA P-256 verify operations in 10003001us (856.5 ops/sec) x86_64 before/after [+8.6%]: Did 29808 ECDSA P-256 verify operations in 10008662us (2978.2 ops/sec) Did 32528 ECDSA P-256 verify operations in 10057137us (3234.3 ops/sec) Change-Id: I5fa643149f5bfbbda9533e3008baadfee9979b93 Reviewed-on: https://boringssl-review.googlesource.com/25684 Reviewed-by: Adam Langley <agl@google.com> Commit-Queue: Adam Langley <agl@google.com> CQ-Verified: CQ bot account: commit-bot@chromium.org <commit-bot@chromium.org>
BoringSSL is a fork of OpenSSL that is designed to meet Google's needs.
Although BoringSSL is an open source project, it is not intended for general use, as OpenSSL is. We don't recommend that third parties depend upon it. Doing so is likely to be frustrating because there are no guarantees of API or ABI stability.
Programs ship their own copies of BoringSSL when they use it and we update everything as needed when deciding to make API changes. This allows us to mostly avoid compromises in the name of compatibility. It works for us, but it may not work for you.
BoringSSL arose because Google used OpenSSL for many years in various ways and, over time, built up a large number of patches that were maintained while tracking upstream OpenSSL. As Google's product portfolio became more complex, more copies of OpenSSL sprung up and the effort involved in maintaining all these patches in multiple places was growing steadily.
Currently BoringSSL is the SSL library in Chrome/Chromium, Android (but it's not part of the NDK) and a number of other apps/programs.
