Status at a glance:

Scalar Crypto Specification:

Lightweight instruction set extensions for RV32 and RV64 HARTs.  Proposed extensions:

  • Extensions fully defined in the Scalar Crypto Specification:  Zk, Zkn, Zks, Zkr, Zkne, Zknd, Zknh, Zksed, Zksh, Zkt
  • Shared with the Bit-Manipulation Specification: Zbkx, Zbkc, Zbkb

Architecture & Opcode consistency review

  • The results of the review can be seen here. Scalar Crypto Arch Review Results.pdf
  • After discussion within the task group, the following changes will be made to the spec, with the changes expected to land in 0.9.4 before the end of August.
    • Stop overlapping the aes32 and aes64 opcodes. See riscv/riscv-opcodes#77
    • Clarify the effect of misa.k
    • Some updates to the entropy source and zkt detailed here.
    • Miscellaneous editorial issues.
  • Some downstream tasks for our group development partners once 0.9.4 lands:now we are in public review.

Architecture Tests

  • Test plan for the scalar-crypto specific instructions is available.
  • Imperas have a complete set of tests, written to the existing test plan, for the scalar crypto instructions and the bitmanip instructions we borrow.
    • These have been merged into the main test suite as of PR#177, with many thanks to Imperas for the contribution.
      • Spike, OVPSim and Sail all agree on the test signatures.
    • They form a base we can use to develop prototype implementations / Spike / SAIL / QEMU very easily and quickly.
  • Upstream Spike support for enabling it to work with the K test suite is being added in PR#687.
  • IIT Madras are also looking at writing the scalar crypto tests for integration into the official architectural tests repo as well.
    • Agreed SoW for IITM
    • They are re-implementing the tests as part of the blessed coverage and test generation tooling.
      • Making good progress with the simple test patterns for scalar-crypto specific instructions A/O April 7'th '21
    • We then switch over to using the IIT tests when they are finished, since they will be easier to maintain/extend going forward than the Imperas tests.
  • YAML config changes for K have been merged in. See here.
  • Update from IIT Madras as on 25-Oct
  • Status from IIT Madras as on 17-Jun:
    • All test cases and coverage reports has been generated and presented.
    • If there are any changes in future on these that is required in future, IIT Madras will enhance the scripts as per requirements.
  • Status from IIT Madras as on 20-May:
    • Real world test cases as per the test plan has been generated.
    • Currently waiting for the fixed toolchain with K extension from PLCT to test the generated test cases. All the test cases are working fine when we run against the patched toolchain
    • A PR has been raised with a pull request for this suite to be reviewed and merged in the riscv-arch tests github repo.
  • Status from IIT Madras as on 12-May:
    • Coverage report for all developed cases in CTG/ISAC has been generated and it is reported as 100%
    • Currently real world test cases are being developed as per test plan and will be completed and send for review by beginning of next week
  • Status from IIT Madras as on 05-May:
    • Resolved issues in running the rv64ik toolchain after interacting with PLCT and compile the relevant tests generated from CTG and run them on spike
    • Currently resolving issues in the running the rv64ibk toolchain. Once this is done, will generate the coverage report of the test cases built till now and share with team.
  • Status from IIT Madras as on 26-Apr:
    • Completed the coverage points specification for all 32-bit and 64-bit instructions
    • Generated test cases from the coverage points
    • Currently working on trying to install the scalar crypto enabled toolchain.

LLVM

  • Work will be done by PLTC PLCT lab under the group contributor model.
  • Slides from PLCT Update Weds 10'th Feb
  • As of 21'st April '21, LLVM work is mostly complete, waiting on PLCT lab for an update about merging things upstream.
    • Some small changes will be needed as we move to v1.0 of scalar crypto around encodings.
  • As of 24'st Jan '22, LLVM upstream is able to compile the assembly code of Zk* and Zbk*
