* | chapoly: Add an SSSE3 based driver | Martin Willi | 2015-06-29 | 1 | -0/+31 |
We always build the driver on x86/x64, but enable it only if SSSE3 support is detected during runtime. Poly1305 uses parallel 32-bit multiplication operands yielding a 64-bit result, for which two can be done in parallel in SSE. This is minimally faster than multiplication with 64-bit operands, and also works on 32-bit builds not having a __int128 result type. On a 32-bit architecture, this is more than twice as fast as the portable driver, and on 64-bit it is ~30% faster. |
