Vole-PSI

Vole-PSI implements the protocols described in VOLE-PSI: Fast OPRF and Circuit-PSI from Vector-OLE and Blazing Fast PSI from Improved OKVS and Subfield VOLE. The library implements standard Private Set Intersection (PSI) along with a variant called Circuit PSI where the result is secret shared between the two parties.

The library is cross platform (win,linux,mac) and depends on libOTe, sparsehash, Coproto.

Build

The library can be cloned and built with networking support as

git clone https://github.com/Visa-Research/volepsi.git
cd volepsi
python3 build.py -DVOLE_PSI_ENABLE_BOOST=ON

If TCP/IP support is not required, then a minimal version of the library can be build by calling python3 build.py. See below and the cmake/python output for additional options. The user can manually call cmake as well.

The output library volePSI and executable frontend will be written to out/build/<platform>/. The frontend can perform PSI based on files as input sets and communicate via sockets. See the output of frontend for details. There is also two example on how to perform networking or manually get & send the protocol messages.

Compile Options

Options can be set as -D NAME=VALUE. For example, -D VOLE_PSI_NO_SYSTEM_PATH=true. See the output of the build for default/current value. Options include :

• VOLE_PSI_NO_SYSTEM_PATH, values: true,false. When looking for dependencies, do not look in the system install. Instead use CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH and the internal dependency management.
• CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE, values: Debug,Release,RelWithDebInfo. The build type.
• FETCH_AUTO, values: true,false. If true, dependencies will first be searched for and if not found then automatically downloaded.
• FETCH_SPARSEHASH, values: true,false. If true, the dependency sparsehash will always be downloaded.
• FETCH_LIBOTE, values: true,false. If true, the dependency libOTe will always be downloaded.
• FETCH_LIBDIVIDE, values: true,false. If true, the dependency libdivide will always be downloaded.
• VOLE_PSI_ENABLE_SSE, values: true,false. If true, the library will be built with SSE intrinsics support.
• VOLE_PSI_ENABLE_PIC, values: true,false. If true, the library will be built -fPIC for shared library support.
• VOLE_PSI_ENABLE_ASAN, values: true,false. If true, the library will be built ASAN enabled.
• VOLE_PSI_ENABLE_GMW, values: true,false. If true, the GMW protocol will be compiled. Only used for Circuit PSI.
• VOLE_PSI_ENABLE_CPSI, values: true,false. If true, the circuit PSI protocol will be compiled.
• VOLE_PSI_ENABLE_OPPRF, values: true,false. If true, the OPPRF protocol will be compiled. Only used for Circuit PSI.
• VOLE_PSI_ENABLE_BOOST, values: true,false. If true, the library will be built with boost networking support. This support is managed by libOTe.
• VOLE_PSI_ENABLE_OPENSSL, values: true,false. If true,the library will be built with OpenSSL networking support. This support is managed by libOTe. If enabled, it is the responsibility of the user to install openssl to the system or to a location contained in CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH.
• VOLE_PSI_ENABLE_BITPOLYMUL, values: true,false. If true, the library will be built with quasicyclic codes for VOLE which are more secure than the alternative. This support is managed by libOTe.
• VOLE_PSI_ENABLE_SODIUM, values: true,false. If true, the library will be built libSodium for doing elliptic curve operations. This or relic must be enabled. This support is managed by libOTe.
• VOLE_PSI_SODIUM_MONTGOMERY, values: true,false. If true, the library will use a non-standard version of sodium that enables slightly better efficiency.
• VOLE_PSI_ENABLE_RELIC, values: true,false. If true, the library will be built relic for doing elliptic curve operations. This or sodium must be enabled. This support is managed by libOTe.

Installing

The library and any fetched dependencies can be installed.

python3 build.py --install

or

python3 build.py --install=install/prefix/path

if a custom install prefix is perfected. Install can also be performed via cmake.

Linking

libOTe can be linked via cmake as

find_package(volepsi REQUIRED)
target_link_libraries(myProject visa::volepsi)

To ensure that cmake can find volepsi, you can either install volepsi or build it locally and set -D CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=path/to/volepsi or provide its location as a cmake HINTS, i.e. find_package(volepsi HINTS path/to/volepsi).

To link a non-cmake project you will need to link volepsi, libOTe,coproto, macoro, (sodium or relic), optionally boost and openss if enabled. These will be installed to the install location and staged to ./out/install/<platform>.

Dependency Management

By default the dependencies are fetched automatically. This can be turned off by using cmake directly or adding -D FETCH_AUTO=OFF. For other options see the cmake output or that of python build.py --help.

If the dependency is installed to the system, then cmake should automatically find it if VOLE_PSI_NO_SYSTEM_PATH is false. If they are installed to a specific location, then you call tell cmake about them as

python3 build.py -D CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=install/prefix/path
