2019-10-21Further work:Pavel V. Shatov (Meister)
- added core wrapper - fixed module resets across entire core (all the resets are now consistently active-low) - continued refactoring
2019-10-21Added support for non-CRT mode. Further refactoring.Pavel V. Shatov (Meister)
2019-10-21Redesigned the testbench. Core clock does not necessarily need to be twicePavel V. Shatov (Meister)
faster than the bus clock now. It can be the same, or say four times faster.
2019-10-21Entire CRT signature algorithm works by now.Pavel V. Shatov (Meister)
Moved micro-operations handler into a separate module file, this way we don't have any synthesized stuff in the top-level module, just instantiations. This is more consistent from the design partitioning point of view. Btw, Xilinx claims their tools work better that way too, but who knows... Added optional simulation-only code to assist debugging. Un-comment the ENABLE_DEBUG `define in 'rtl/modexpng_parameters.vh' to use, but don't ever try to synthesize the core with debugging enabled.
2019-10-21Added the regular (not modular) addition operation required during the finalPavel V. Shatov (Meister)
step of the Garner's formula algorithm. Note, that the addition is "uneven" in the sense, that the first operand is full-size (as wide as the modulus), while the second one is only half the size. The adder internally banks the second input port during the second half of the addition.
2019-10-21Added "MERGE_LH" micro-operation. To be able to do Garner's formula we needPavel V. Shatov (Meister)
regular (not modular) multiplication. We're doing this by telling the modular multiplier to stop after the "square" step, which computes A*B. The problem is that the multiplier stores the lower part of the product in the internal bank L and the upper part in the internal bank H, but we need to be able to do operations on the product as a whole. MERGE_LH that combines the two halves of the product into one bank.
2019-10-21Refactored general worker modulePavel V. Shatov (Meister)
Added modular subtraction micro-operation
2019-10-03Added more micro-operations, entire Montgomery exponentiation ladder works now.Pavel V. Shatov (Meister)
2019-10-03Added more micro-operations, also added "general worker" module. The worker ↵Pavel V. Shatov (Meister)
is basically a block memory data mover, but it can also do some supporting operations required for the Garner's formula part of the exponentiation.
2019-10-03Expanded micro-operation parameters (added dedicated control bit to force ↵Pavel V. Shatov (Meister)
the B input of the modular multiplier to 1, this is necessary to bring numbers out of Montgomery domain).
2019-10-03Reworked storage architecture (moved I/O memory to a separate module, since ↵Pavel V. Shatov (Meister)
there's only one instance of input/output values, while storage manager has dual storage space for P and Q multipliers). Started working on microcoded layer, added input operation and modular multiplication.
2019-10-03Redesigned storage modules, added top-level module, added I/O storage space.Pavel V. Shatov (Meister)
2019-10-01Redesigned core architecture, unified bank structure. All storage blocks nowPavel V. Shatov (Meister)
have eight 4kbit entries and occupy one 36K BRAM tile.
2019-10-01Major rewrite (different core hierarchy, buses, wrappers, etc).Pavel V. Shatov (Meister)
2019-10-01Implemented the final stage of the Montgomery modular multiplication, i.e.Pavel V. Shatov (Meister)
addition of AB and M then reduction by right-shift.
2019-10-01Further work on the Montgomery modular multiplier. Added the thirdPavel V. Shatov (Meister)
"rectangular" stage of the multiplication process, i.e. computation of how many copies of the modulus N to add to the intermediate product AB to zeroize the lower half: M = Q * N.
2019-10-01Further work on the Montgomery modular multiplier. Can now to the "triangular"Pavel V. Shatov (Meister)
part of multiplication, i.e. compute the "magic" reduction coefficient Q = LSB(AB) * N_COEFF.
2019-10-01Started working on the pipelined Montgomery modular multiplier. Currently canPavel V. Shatov (Meister)
do the "square" part of the multiplication, i.e. compute the twice larger intermediate product AB = A * B.
