# mcl
|
|
|
|
A generic and fast pairing-based cryptography library.
|
|
|
|
# Abstract
|
|
|
|
mcl is a library for pairing-based cryptography.
|
|
The current version supports the optimal Ate pairing over BN curves.
|
|
|
|
# Support architecture
|
|
|
|
* x86-64 Windows + Visual Studio
|
|
* x86, x86-64 Linux + gcc/clang
|
|
* ARM Linux
|
|
* ARM64 Linux
|
|
* (maybe any platform to be supported by LLVM)
|
|
|
|
# Installation Requirements
|
|
|
|
* [GMP](https://gmplib.org/)
|
|
```
|
|
apt install libgmp-dev
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Create a working directory (e.g., work) and clone the following repositories.
|
|
```
|
|
mkdir work
|
|
cd work
|
|
git clone git://github.com/herumi/mcl
|
|
git clone git://github.com/herumi/cybozulib
|
|
git clone git://github.com/herumi/xbyak ; for only x86/x64
|
|
git clone git://github.com/herumi/cybozulib_ext ; for only Windows
|
|
```
|
|
* Cybozulib_ext is a prerequisite for running OpenSSL and GMP on VC (Visual C++).
|
|
|
|
# Build and test on x86-64 Linux, macOS, ARM and ARM64 Linux
|
|
To make lib/libmcl.a and test it:
|
|
```
|
|
cod work/mcl
|
|
make test
|
|
```
|
|
To benchmark a pairing:
|
|
```
|
|
bin/bn_test.exe
|
|
```
|
|
To make sample programs:
|
|
```
|
|
make sample
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Build for 32-bit Linux
|
|
Build openssl and gmp for 32-bit mode and install `<lib32>`
|
|
```
|
|
make ARCH=x86 CFLAGS_USER="-I <lib32>/include" LDFLAGS_USER="-L <lib32>/lib -Wl,-rpath,<lib32>/lib"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Build for 64-bit Windows
|
|
1) make library
|
|
```
|
|
mklib.bat
|
|
```
|
|
2) make exe binary of sample\pairing.cpp
|
|
```
|
|
mk sample\pairing.cpp
|
|
bin/bn_test.exe
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
open mcl.sln and build or if you have msbuild.exe
|
|
```
|
|
msbuild /p:Configuration=Release
|
|
```
|
|
### SELinux
|
|
mcl uses Xbyak JIT engine if it is available on x64 architecture,
|
|
otherwise mcl uses a little slower functions generated by LLVM.
|
|
The default mode enables SELinux security policy on CentOS, then JIT is disabled.
|
|
```
|
|
% sudo setenforce 1
|
|
% getenforce

# Libraries
|
|
|
|
* libmcl.a, libmcl.so ; core library for C++
|
|
* libbn256_if.a, libbn256_if.so ; `mcl/bn256_if.h` which is wrapped bn256.hpp for C interface
|
|
|
|
# How to initialize pairing library
|
|
Call `mcl::bn256::bn256init` before calling any operations.
|
|
```
|
|
#include <mcl/bn256.hpp>
|
|
mcl::bn::CurveParam cp = mcl::bn::CurveFp254BNb; // or mcl::bn::CurveSNARK1
|
|
mcl::bn256::bn256init(cp);
|
|
mcl::bn256::G1 P(...);
|
|
mcl::bn256::G2 Q(...);
|
|
mcl::bn256::Fp12 e;
|
|
mcl::bn256::BN::pairing(e, P, Q);
|
|
```
|
|
1. (CurveFp254BNb) a BN curve over the 254-bit prime p = 36z^4 + 36z^3 + 24z^2 + 6z + 1 where z = -(2^62 + 2^55 + 1).
|
|
2. (CurveSNARK1) a BN curve over a 254-bit prime p such that n := p + 1 - t has high 2-adicity.
|
|
|
|
See [test/bn_test.cpp](https://github.com/herumi/mcl/blob/master/test/bn_test.cpp).
|
|
|
|
## string format of G1 and G2
|
|
G1 and G2 have three elements of Fp (x, y, z) for Jacobi coordinate.
|
|
normalize() method normalize it to affine coordinate (x, y, 1) or (0, 0, 0).
|
|
G1::setCompressedExpression(bool) sets whether uncompressed(false) or compressed(true) format.
|
|
getStr() method gets
|
|
|
|
* "0" ; infinity
|
|
* "1 <x> <y>" ; not compressed format
|
|
* "2 <x>" ; compressed format for even y
|
|
* "3 <x>" ; compressed format for odd y
|
|
|
|

# How to make asm files (optional)
|
|
The asm files generated by this way are already put in `src/asm`, then it is not necessary to do this.
|
|
|
|
Install [LLVM](http://llvm.org/).
|
|
```
|
|
make MCL_USE_LLVM=1 LLVM_VER=<llvm-version> UPDATE_ASM=1
|
|
```
|
|
For example, specify `-3.8` for `<llvm-version>` if `opt-3.8` and `llc-3.8` are installed.
|
|
|
|
If you want to use Fp with 1024-bit prime on x86-64, then
|
|
```
|
|
make MCL_USE_LLVM=1 LLVM_VER=<llvm-version> UPDATE_ASM=1 MCL_MAX_BIT_SIZE=1024
|
|
```
