From 7e8a060f17330e330cf9c3078261bb51499e7380 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Claude Date: Mon, 6 Apr 2026 18:33:15 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] perf: optimize reduceSelf for secp256k1, pre-allocate wNAF scratch MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Two microoptimizations: 1. reduceSelf: exploit P's structure (P[1..3] = 0xFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF). a >= P only if all top 3 limbs are max AND a[0] >= P[0]. The first check (a[3] == -1) fails >99.99% of the time, making this a single branch miss prediction instead of a 4-limb comparison loop. Called ~1,300× per verify, ~500× per ECDH. 2. Pre-allocate wNAF IntArrays and scratch MutablePoint/LongArray in PointScratch. Eliminates 8-12 IntArray(145) + 8-12 LongArray(4) allocations per mul/mulDoubleG call. Adds wnafInto() to Glv that writes into caller-provided arrays. https://claude.ai/code/session_01BhU63WUe9AhikZxRdw3Lpg --- .../quartz/utils/secp256k1/FieldP.kt | 9 +++- .../quartz/utils/secp256k1/Glv.kt | 35 +++++++++--- .../quartz/utils/secp256k1/Point.kt | 53 ++++++++++++------- 3 files changed, 70 insertions(+), 27 deletions(-) diff --git a/quartz/src/commonMain/kotlin/com/vitorpamplona/quartz/utils/secp256k1/FieldP.kt b/quartz/src/commonMain/kotlin/com/vitorpamplona/quartz/utils/secp256k1/FieldP.kt index 0eecfb76d..6c58407e6 100644 --- a/quartz/src/commonMain/kotlin/com/vitorpamplona/quartz/utils/secp256k1/FieldP.kt +++ b/quartz/src/commonMain/kotlin/com/vitorpamplona/quartz/utils/secp256k1/FieldP.kt @@ -293,7 +293,14 @@ internal object FieldP { // ==================== Reduction ==================== fun reduceSelf(a: LongArray) { - if (U256.cmp(a, P) >= 0) U256.subTo(a, a, P) + // Exploit P's structure: P = [P0, -1, -1, -1] where P[1..3] = 0xFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF. + // a >= P only if a[3]==a[2]==a[1]==-1 AND a[0] >= P[0].
