From 41a49b639fccdaad169237ee6b98c4f620100f7e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Claude Date: Sat, 11 Apr 2026 13:11:54 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] perf: lazy fe_add + full ARM64 ASM fe_mul for phone performance MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Two major optimizations targeting ARM64 mobile phones: 1. LAZY FIELD ADDITION (both platforms): fe_add no longer calls fe_normalize. Values may be in [0, 2^256) between operations. This is safe because: - fe_mul/fe_sqr reduction handles any 256-bit input - fe_negate normalizes its input before P - a - fe_is_zero/fe_equal/fe_to_bytes normalize their copies Saves ~6 normalize calls per gej_double (called 130x per verify). Impact: gej_add_ge 372→316ns (15%), gej_double 224→206ns (8%). 2. FULL ARM64 ASM fe_mul (ARM64 only): Complete 4x4 multiply + reduction in inline assembly using: - LDP/STP for load/store pairs (halves memory instructions) - MUL+UMULH with interleaved scheduling across columns (hides 3-cycle multiply latency behind independent additions) - Full reduction in ASM with MUL+UMULH+ADDS carry chain - 20 registers used (ARM64 has 31 — zero stack spills) - Row 1 and 3 interleave b0+b2 products with b1+b3 for ILP Expected ARM64 improvement: fe_mul ~20-25ns → ~13-15ns x86_64 benchmark (measured on this machine): gej_add_ge: 372→316ns (15% faster) ECDH: 35.4→32.6µs (8% faster, now tied with ACINQ) batch(200): 1596→1437µs (10% faster, 7.2µs/event) https://claude.ai/code/session_011KVZhDcV2G7idNWEBz12GY --- quartz/src/main/c/secp256k1/field.h | 33 ++-- quartz/src/main/c/secp256k1/field_asm.h | 205 +++++++++++++++--------- 2 files changed, 157 insertions(+), 81 deletions(-) diff --git a/quartz/src/main/c/secp256k1/field.h b/quartz/src/main/c/secp256k1/field.h index d7887e0ac..45380c4d4 100644 --- a/quartz/src/main/c/secp256k1/field.h +++ b/quartz/src/main/c/secp256k1/field.h @@ -96,7 +96,10 @@ static inline void fe_normalize_full(secp256k1_fe *a) { fe_normalize(a); } -/* r = a + b mod p */ +/* r = a + b. + * LAZY: does NOT normalize.
