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

...

...

• 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
  • Sample cgf file for Kspec ver 1.0.0-rc4 is in https://github.com/anku-anand/riscv-ctg/tree/kspec-rc4
• 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.

...

• Experimental / development toolchain available in the riscv-crypto repository.
  
  • This cannot be up-streamed, but can be used for development work for now.
• Intrinsics proposal from Markku
• PLCT lab have developed complete Binutils and GCC patches.
  • The pull requests into the main RISC-V repos can be found here:
    • Binutils pull request: https://github.com/riscv/riscv-binutils-gdb/pull/254
    • GCC pull request: https://github.com/riscv/riscv-gcc/pull/250 (merged)
  • The PLCT lab continuous integration server can be found here:
    • https://ci.rvperf.org/view/Krypto-Scalar/
    • This is a good place to start for re-producing the PLCT builds of GCC/Binutils
  • Some small changes will be needed as we move to v1.0 of scalar crypto around encodings.

LLVM

• Work will be done by PLTC PLCT lab under the group contributor model.
  • Github repository
  • Continuous integration status
• 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*

Simulators

Though all listed under "simulators", these are actually a collection of formal model / virtual machine / architectural simulators / DV simulators etc.

...

• Currently working on getting support merged in upstream in PR#99
  • Support for all scalar-crypto dedicated instructions and the entropy source is present.
  • No support for Bitmanip . The Bitmanip TG is waiting until after the opcode and consistency review to start writing SAIL codeyet.

Spike

• Upstream support has been merged in.
• Instructions are up to date with v0v1.9.4.Entropy source PR for v0.9.4 is here.0.0
