From d77f4adf04f2878853d0919f908d1b110f3c94f2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Daniel Schadt Date: Thu, 10 Apr 2025 19:34:07 +0200 Subject: implement aes4 and aes10 with native instructions Even though aes::hazmat::cipher_round uses aes-ni instructions under the hood, simply loading the data (and the keys!) takes a significant amount of time. Sadly, there's no way that aes exposes that lets you re-use the "loaded" keys. By implementing aes4/aes10 directly with _mm_aesenc, we can keep the keys properly aligned. We still keep the software backend as fallback, using the software implementation of the aes crate. This gives a ~70% speedup. --- Cargo.lock | 1 + 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+) (limited to 'Cargo.lock') diff --git a/Cargo.lock b/Cargo.lock index f2ea361..81985e0 100644 --- a/Cargo.lock +++ b/Cargo.lock @@ -723,6 +723,7 @@ dependencies = [ "aes", "blake2", "constant_time_eq", + "cpufeatures", "criterion", "hex", ] -- cgit v1.2.3
