NAME

ISAL::Crypto - Perl interface for Intel(R) Intelligent Storage Acceleration Library Crypto Version - collection of optimized low-level functions targeting storage applications.

SYNOPSIS

use ISAL::Crypto qw(:all);
my $feature = "avx512";

my $init = "init_$feature";
my $mgr = ISAL::Crypto::Mgr::SHA256->$init();

my $ctx1 = ISAL::Crypto::Ctx::SHA256->init();
my $ctx2 = ISAL::Crypto::Ctx::SHA256->init();

my $submit = "submit_$feature";
$mgr->$submit($ctx1, $str1, ENTIRE);

$mgr->$submit($ctx2, $str2, FIRST);
$mgr->$submit($ctx2, $str3, UPDATE);
$mgr->$submit($ctx2, $str4, UPDATE);
$mgr->$submit($ctx2, $str5, LAST);

my $flush = "flush_$feature";
while ($mgr->$flush()){};

my $result_digest1 = $ctx1->get_digest();
my $result_digest2 = $ctx2->get_digest();

ABSTRACT

ISAL::Crypto - allows to run multiple hash calculations at the same time on one cpu using vector registers for much better throuput than usual single registers calculations.

SUBROUTINES/METHODS

Detect CPU features methods

• ISAL::Crypto::CPU_FEATURES

  Return hash reference with format {"HAS_$FEATURE_NAME_UPPERCASE" => 1,}. For example: { HAS_SSE => 1, HAS_AVX => 1, HAS_AVX2 => 0, HAS_AVX512 => 0, HAS_AVX512F => 0, HAS_AVX512VL => 0, HAS_AVX512BW => 0, HAS_AVX512CD => 0, HAS_AVX512DQ => 0, }

• ISAL::Crypto::get_cpu_features

  Return list of available CPU features names in lowercase: ("sse", "avx").

Mgr methods

init_*

• ISAL::Crypto::Mgr::SHA1->init_sse()

• ISAL::Crypto::Mgr::SHA1->init_avx()

• ISAL::Crypto::Mgr::SHA1->init_avx2()

• ISAL::Crypto::Mgr::SHA1->init_avx512()

• ISAL::Crypto::Mgr::SHA256->init_sse()

• ISAL::Crypto::Mgr::SHA256->init_avx()

• ISAL::Crypto::Mgr::SHA256->init_avx2()

• ISAL::Crypto::Mgr::SHA256->init_avx512()

• ISAL::Crypto::Mgr::SHA512->init_sse()

• ISAL::Crypto::Mgr::SHA512->init_avx()

• ISAL::Crypto::Mgr::SHA512->init_avx2()

• ISAL::Crypto::Mgr::SHA512->init_avx512()

• ISAL::Crypto::Mgr::MD5->init_sse()

• ISAL::Crypto::Mgr::MD5->init_avx()

• ISAL::Crypto::Mgr::MD5->init_avx2()

• ISAL::Crypto::Mgr::MD5->init_avx512()

  Init mgr taking in account CPU features. Return "ISAL::Crypto::Mgr::$ALGO" reference.

submit_*

• $mgr->submit_sse($ctx, $str, $mask)

• $mgr->submit_avx($ctx, $str, $mask)

• $mgr->submit_avx2($ctx, $str, $mask)

• $mgr->submit_avx512($ctx, $str, $mask)

  Submit $ctx taking in account CPU features with $str and mask with values: (0: UPDATE), (1: FIRST), (2: LAST), (3: ENTIRE).

  Return $ctx with the stampted error status if it is imposible to submit it now or if there were maximum submited contexts and manager flush them all. You can unsubmited job with undef $ctx - and it will be cleared from manager.

  $str MUST TO BE IN SAFE until $mgr->flush_* will be called. If $str has been freed then $mgr->flush_* (or later call of $mgr->submit_* with fully filled slots for contexts) behaviour IS UNDEFINED. It can lead to segmentation fault or incorrect digest value results.

flush_*

• $mgr->flush_sse()

• $mgr->flush_avx()

• $mgr->flush_avx2()

• $mgr->flush_avx512()

  Flush all submited context jobs taking in account CPU features. When the first job is finished its $ctx will be returned.

• $mgr->get_num_lanes_inuse()

  Return the number of used manager's lanes.

Ctx methods

• ISAL::Crypto::Ctx::SHA1->init()

• ISAL::Crypto::Ctx::SHA256->init()

• ISAL::Crypto::Ctx::SHA512->init()

• ISAL::Crypto::Ctx::MD5->init()

  Init ctx and return "ISAL::Crypto::Ctx::$ALGO" reference.

• $ctx->get_digest()

  Returns the digest encoded as a binary string.

• $ctx->get_digest_hex()

  Returns the digest encoded as a hexadecimal string.

• $ctx->get_status()

  Returns the number value of context status. Values: (0: CTX_STS_IDLE), (1: CTX_STS_PROCESSING), (2: CTX_STS_LAST), (4: CTX_STS_COMPLETE).

• $ctx->get_error()

  Returns the number value of context error. Values: (0: CTX_ERROR_NONE), (-1: CTX_ERROR_INVALID_FLAGS), (-2: CTX_ERROR_ALREADY_PROCESSING), (-3: CTX_ERROR_ALREADY_COMPLETED).

EXPORT

Nothing is exported by default.

Benchmarks

To start benchmark run make bench in console.

Not Yet Implemented (NYI)

• Several cpu features usage (sha_ni, sse3)
• Multi-hash
• Multi-hash + murmur
• AES - block ciphers (XTS, GCM, CBC)
• Rolling hash

Prerequisites

• Assembler: nasm v2.11.01 or later (nasm v2.13 or better suggested for building in AVX512 support) or yasm version 1.2.0 or later.
• Compiler: gcc, clang or icc compiler.
• Make: GNU 'make'
• Optional: Building with autotools requires autoconf/automake packages.
