CHAM

A Customized Homomorphic Encryption Accelerator for Fast Matrix-Vector Product

The CHAM project is initiated by Alibaba DAMO Academy CTL and Ant Group's AntChain.

CHAM is a customized homomorphic encryption accelerator for fast matrix-vector product. Homomorphic encryption (HE), enabling computation on encrypted data, suffers from poor performance due to enlarged data size and exploded amount of computation. Existing HE accelerators either target small HE operations or fail to support fast-evolving HE algorithms. To better support various privacy-preserving applications (e.g., logistic regression and neural-network inference), we propose CHAM for high-performance matrix-vector product, which can be easily extended to 2D/3D convolutions.

The code in this repository is released by Alibaba DAMO Academy CTL and Ant Group's AntChain under MIT License.

The distribution is developed as part of our DAC2023 paper called "CHAM: A Customized Homomorphic Encryption Accelerator for Fast Matrix-Vector Product". This distribution is an open-source version of our commercial accelerator and not ready for production use.

Directory structure

The directory structure is as follows:

• src: RTL source files
• include: include files
• sim: simulation environment
• tv: test vectors
• xilinx_vcs_lib: xilinx vcs simulation library

Build guide

1. Generate xilinx vcs lib in ./xilinx_vcs_lib
2. Modify sim/vcs/tb_top.sh line 48 to your vcs path
3. cd sim
4. make clean //remove the previous run_dir
5. ./run_case //test name is showing below in Test cases test_stg_0_0 test single stage at stage 0, and test only ksk ram init path test_stg_0_1 test single stage at stage 0, and test only preprocess init path test_stg_1 test single stage at stage 1 test_stg_2 test single stage at stage 2 test_stg_3 test single stage at stage 3 test_stg_4 test single stage at stage 4 test_stg_5 test single stage at stage 5 test_stg_6 test single stage at stage 6 test_stg_7 test single stage at stage 7 test_stg_8 test single stage at stage 8 test_stg_9 test single stage at stage 9 test_stg_10 test single stage at stage 10 test_row test all stages in a row test_full_no_uram_4x4096 test full case, the test vector is 4x4096. we use testbench to init ksk ram instead of designtest_full_4x4096 test full case, the test vector is 4x4096. test_full_4x4096 test full case, the test vector is 4x4096.
