Q-chain Virtual Machine (QVM)

The Q-chain Virtual Machine (QVM) hosts the Q lane of Lux's parallel-witness finality model (LP-020 Quasar). When the operator-selected witness set includes WitnessQ (policies PolicyPQ or PolicyQuantum), Q-Chain runs a Ringtail 2-round threshold ceremony per consensus round and emits the resulting threshold signature as the round's Q-witness. Q-Chain is one of three parallel finality producers (P, Q, Z); adding it does not change finality latency, only parallel verification cost.

The VM also provides per-validator ML-DSA-65 (FIPS 204) identity signatures and a quantum stamp for individual transactions.

Features

Q-witness production (Quasar parallel-witness finality)
  • Ringtail threshold (Module-LWE, eprint 2024/1113): 2-round threshold signing per consensus round, t = ⌊2n/3⌋ + 1 of n validators, combined public key rooted in qchain_ceremony_root.
  • Per-validator ML-DSA-65 (FIPS 204): identity signatures over round digests, used by the Z lane (chains/zkvm) to produce the Groth16 rollup.
  • Quantum stamp: time-windowed transaction-level binding.
Performance Optimization
  • Parallel Transaction Processing: Process multiple transactions concurrently
  • Configurable Batch Sizes: Optimize throughput based on network conditions
  • Worker Pool Architecture: Efficient resource utilization with pooled workers
Configuration

The QVM can be configured through the config.Config structure:

type Config struct {
    TxFee                   uint64        // Base transaction fee
    CreateAssetTxFee        uint64        // Asset creation fee
    QuantumVerificationFee  uint64        // Fee for quantum signature verification
    MaxParallelTxs          int           // Maximum parallel transactions
    QuantumAlgorithmVersion uint32        // Quantum algorithm version
    RingtailKeySize         int           // Size of Ringtail keys in bytes
    QuantumStampEnabled     bool          // Enable quantum stamp validation
    QuantumStampWindow      time.Duration // Validity window for quantum stamps
    ParallelBatchSize       int           // Batch size for parallel processing
    QuantumSigCacheSize     int           // Cache size for quantum signatures
    RingtailEnabled         bool          // Enable Ringtail key support
    MinQuantumConfirmations uint32        // Minimum confirmations for quantum stamps
}

Architecture

Core Components
  1. VM (vm.go): Main virtual machine implementation
  2. Factory (factory.go): VM factory for creating QVM instances
  3. Config (config/config.go): Configuration management
  4. Quantum Signer (quantum/signer.go): Quantum signature implementation
Transaction Flow
  1. Transactions are submitted to the transaction pool
  2. Worker threads process transactions in parallel batches
  3. Quantum signatures are verified using the quantum signer
  4. Valid transactions are included in blocks
  5. Blocks are signed with quantum stamps
RPC API

The QVM exposes the following RPC endpoints:

  • qvm.getBlock: Retrieve a block by ID
  • qvm.generateRingtailKey: Generate a new Ringtail key pair
  • qvm.verifyQuantumSignature: Verify a quantum signature
  • qvm.getPendingTransactions: Get pending transactions
  • qvm.getHealth: Get VM health status
  • qvm.getConfig: Get current configuration

Security Features

Quantum Signatures

The QVM uses ML-DSA (FIPS 204, NIST module-lattice DSA) for per-validator quantum-resistant signatures:

  • ML-DSA-44/65/87 supported (NIST Level 2/3/5)
  • Quantum stamp: time-windowed binding of message + nonce + timestamp, prevents stamp replay
  • GPU batch verification via accel.DilithiumVerifyBatch (accel.Available(), threshold 64+ signatures)
Validator key material

Two distinct categories live on Q-Chain validators:

  • Per-validator ML-DSA-65 identity key: MLDSAValidatorKey in quantum/signer.go (kept exposed via the legacy GenerateRingtailKey RPC name). Used for individual round attestations and the Z-witness rollup input.
  • Ringtail threshold share: per-validator share of the combined Ringtail key, produced by the Q-Chain DKG ceremony (rooted in qchain_ceremony_root). Lives in luxfi/threshold/protocols/ringtail.
Parallel Processing Safety
  • Thread-safe transaction pool with mutex protection
  • Isolated worker threads for transaction processing
  • Atomic operations for state updates

Usage

Creating a QVM Instance
factory := &qvm.Factory{
    Config: config.DefaultConfig(),
}

vm, err := factory.New(logger)
if err != nil {
    return err
}
Initializing the VM
err := vm.Initialize(
    ctx,
    chainRuntime,
    db,
    genesisBytes,
    upgradeBytes,
    configBytes,
    toEngine,
    fxs,
    appSender,
)
Building Blocks
block, err := vm.BuildBlock(ctx)
if err != nil {
    return err
}

Testing

The QVM includes comprehensive error handling and logging for production use:

  • Error recovery for parallel processing failures
  • Detailed logging at all levels (Info, Debug, Error)
  • Health check monitoring
  • Metrics collection

Future Enhancements

Planned improvements include:

  • Additional quantum-resistant algorithms (SPHINCS+, Dilithium, Falcon)
  • Enhanced parallel processing with GPU acceleration
  • Cross-chain quantum signature verification
  • Advanced caching strategies for improved performance

Overview

Package quantumvm GPU backend — runtime-loaded plugin bridge via the ABI v14 vtbl entry point.

Unlike cevm/cevm_cgo.go (which links libevm + libevm-gpu via pkg-config and reaches the C ABI through extern "C" gpu_* helpers), Q-Chain resolves its GPU substrate at PROCESS START via dlopen / dlsym against the lux-gpu-kernels plugin DSO and reaches the per-op kernel through function pointers inside a vtbl populated by the plugin's `lux_gpu_backend_init` entry point. This keeps the chains module compilable without the lux GPU plugin present in the build tree — the plugin is fully optional. When no libluxgpu_backend_*.{so,dylib} is findable on the dlopen search path, AutoBackend() returns BackendNone, every GPUBackend method returns ErrGPUNotAvailable, and the existing CPU verify path stays unchanged.

Probe order (init()): cuda → hip → metal → vulkan → webgpu. First plugin that resolves the entry point AND reports a v14 ABI matching the header we compiled against AND exposes the three Q-Chain slots (op_mldsa_verify_batch, op_mldsa_sign_batch, op_slhdsa_verify_batch[_shake192f]) wins; remaining probes are skipped. The cookie checks (abi_version + vtbl_size) defend against a plugin that lies about its ABI version while shipping a truncated vtable (see backend_plugin.h §"Backend Descriptor" comment).

Search path: the dlopen library name is the bare basename (libluxgpu_backend_<x>.{so,dylib}); the loader's standard LD_LIBRARY_PATH / DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH / rpath resolution finds it. LUX_GPU_PLUGIN_DIR overrides — if set, every probe joins it to the basename before calling dlopen.

	MLDSA65SignatureSize = 3309
)

ML-DSA-65 byte sizes per FIPS 204 §4. Pinned constants — the plugin rejects mismatched sk_stride at the boundary, so we surface them up front to keep the call sites unambiguous.

Variables

View Source 
var ErrGPUNotAvailable = errors.New("quantumvm: GPU backend not available")

ErrGPUNotAvailable is returned by every GPUBackend method when no plugin is loaded — either because the binary was built without CGo, no libluxgpu_backend_*.{so,dylib} was findable on the dlopen search path, the loaded plugin reported a non-v14 ABI version, or its vtbl was missing one of the three Q-Chain slots.

The error is sentinel-comparable via errors.Is so callers can route the CPU verify path cleanly: 

if errors.Is(err, quantumvm.ErrGPUNotAvailable) {
    return cpuVerify(pk, msg, sig)
}
View Source 
var ErrQWitnessNotWired = errors.New("Q-Chain per-round Corona driver not wired (TODO LP-020 §9)")

ErrQWitnessNotWired is returned by QWitnessAdapter.Witness until the per-round Corona driver lands. The interface is in place so the consensus driver can be configured today.

Types

type BCLookup 

type BCLookup interface {
	Lookup(string) (ids.ID, error)
	PrimaryAlias(ids.ID) (string, error)
}

BCLookup provides blockchain alias lookup

type Backend added in v1.3.0 

type Backend uint8

Backend identifies which GPU plugin satisfied the runtime dlopen probe.

Probe order is fixed by the spec: cuda → hip → metal → vulkan → webgpu. The first plugin that resolves the `lux_gpu_backend_init` entry point and reports a v14 vtbl with the three Q-Chain slots (op_mldsa_verify_batch, op_mldsa_sign_batch, op_slhdsa_verify_batch) wins; remaining probes are skipped. Each plugin is fully self-contained — there is no fallback chain once one is chosen (this keeps backend selection deterministic across reboots, matching consensus-safety expectations). 

const (
	// BackendNone means no GPU plugin is loaded — every GPUBackend method
	// returns ErrGPUNotAvailable. This is the value reported by
	// AutoBackend() under !cgo, and under cgo when no
	// libluxgpu_backend_*.{so,dylib} was findable.
	BackendNone Backend = 0
	// BackendCUDA selects libluxgpu_backend_cuda.so (NVIDIA, Linux/Windows).
	BackendCUDA Backend = 1
	// BackendHIP selects libluxgpu_backend_hip.so (AMD ROCm, Linux/Windows).
	BackendHIP Backend = 2
	// BackendMetal selects libluxgpu_backend_metal.dylib (Apple, darwin).
	BackendMetal Backend = 3
	// BackendVulkan selects libluxgpu_backend_vulkan.{so,dylib} (portable).
	BackendVulkan Backend = 4
	// BackendWebGPU selects libluxgpu_backend_webgpu.{so,dylib} (portable).
	BackendWebGPU Backend = 5
)

func AutoBackend added in v1.3.0 

func AutoBackend() Backend

AutoBackend returns the GPU plugin chosen by the dlopen probe at process start. BackendNone means no plugin is loaded — callers should route to the CPU verify path. The probe runs exactly once at init time; this getter is one atomic load and safe to call from any goroutine.

func (Backend) String added in v1.3.0 

func (b Backend) String() string

String returns the canonical lowercase name of the backend. The same name appears in the plugin DSO filename (libluxgpu_backend_<name>.*) and in the lux_gpu_backend_desc.backend_name field reported by the loaded plugin.

Reject marks the block as rejected

func (*Block) Status 

func (b *Block) Status() uint8

Status returns the block status. Q-Chain does not yet track per-block status separately (all blocks reaching here are processing or accepted), so we return 0 (Unknown) until a status field is added.

func (*Block) String

type GPUBackend interface {
	// MLDSAVerifyBatch verifies a batch of ML-DSA signatures. mode pins

	// on a nil receiver and idempotent.
	Close() error
}

GPUBackend is the narrow Q-Chain surface that vm.go's batch verify / sign paths can opt into. Three 1:1 mappings to the ABI v14 vtbl slots, plus Backend() / Close() lifecycle.

Buffer ownership: callers own every slice / struct passed in. The vtbl slot does H2D / D2H internally. On return every output slice has been overwritten with the kernel's result; the caller can read immediately, no further sync needed.

Composition: the three batch methods are orthogonal — a "round" that verifies a mixed batch of ML-DSA + SLH-DSA stamps composes them in the round applier. We do NOT try to express a "verify all PQ sigs" supercall here; that would couple the round-level policy to the substrate, and the substrate intentionally only exposes primitives.

func ActiveGPUBackend added in v1.3.0 

func ActiveGPUBackend() GPUBackend

ActiveGPUBackend returns the package-level GPUBackend handle. Under cgo this is the *gpuBackend chosen by init()'s probe, or a sentinel noGPUBackend stub when no plugin loaded. The returned handle's methods are safe to call from any goroutine — every vtbl call holds the backend mutex.

type GenerateCoronaKeyArgs added in v1.2.3 

type GenerateCoronaKeyArgs struct{}

GenerateCoronaKeyArgs are the arguments for GenerateCoronaKey

type GenerateCoronaKeyReply added in v1.2.3 

type GenerateCoronaKeyReply struct {

	Count        int               `json:"count"`
}

GetPendingTransactionsReply is the reply for GetPendingTransactions

type MLDSAMode added in v1.3.0 

type MLDSAMode uint8

MLDSAMode selects which ML-DSA security parameter set the batch targets. The ABI v14 vtbl currently exposes only ML-DSA-65 (mode 3, FIPS 204 Dilithium3) — modes 44 and 87 will land at their own vtbl slots in a future ABI bump (see backend_plugin.h v14 block). Callers pass the mode through so the wrapper can validate batch byte widths at the boundary, even though only MLDSA65 round-trips through the plugin today. 

const (
	// MLDSAMode44 is FIPS 204 Dilithium2. Not yet wired through the v14
	// vtbl — passing this to a batch method returns ErrGPUNotAvailable
	// (caller falls through to the CPU path).
	MLDSAMode44 MLDSAMode = 1
	// MLDSAMode65 is FIPS 204 Dilithium3 — the canonical Q-Chain mode.
	// pk=1952 B, sig=3309 B (max), sk=4032 B.
	MLDSAMode65 MLDSAMode = 2
	// MLDSAMode87 is FIPS 204 Dilithium5. Not yet wired through the v14
	// vtbl — passing this returns ErrGPUNotAvailable.
	MLDSAMode87 MLDSAMode = 3
)

type PendingBlock 

type PendingBlock struct {
	BlockID          ids.ID
	BlockHash        []byte
	Height           uint64
	BLSSignatures    []*quasar.BLSSignature    // Classical threshold signatures (parallel)
	CoronaSignatures []*quasar.CoronaSignature // Post-quantum threshold signatures (parallel)
	BLSFinalized     bool                      // BLS threshold reached
	CoronaFinalized  bool                      // Corona threshold reached
	Finalized        bool                      // BOTH complete = quantum finality
}

PendingBlock tracks a block awaiting dual signature finality. Both BLS AND Corona must reach threshold for quantum finality. Signatures are collected in parallel - either can complete first.

type QWitnessAdapter 

type QWitnessAdapter struct {
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

QWitnessAdapter adapts the Q-Chain Quasar engine to the consensus QWitnessProducer interface used by the Quasar round driver.

TODO(pqz): wire to a real per-round Corona ceremony driver. The current quantumvm.Quasar engine signs per-block by validator id; a per-consensus- round driver is required to land a true Q-witness. See LP-020 §9 Implementation, "Three-lane signing".

func NewQWitnessAdapter 

func NewQWitnessAdapter(engine *Quasar) *QWitnessAdapter

NewQWitnessAdapter constructs a Q-witness adapter backed by the given Q-Chain Quasar engine. Pass the engine returned by NewQuasar.

func (*QWitnessAdapter) Witness 

func (a *QWitnessAdapter) Witness(ctx context.Context, digest [32]byte) ([]byte, error)

Witness produces a Corona threshold signature over the round digest. Signature matches consensus/protocol/quasar.QWitnessProducer.

Returns ErrQWitnessNotWired today; the round driver treats this as the witness being unavailable and finalizes at PolicyQuorum (or PolicyPZ if Z is enabled).

type Quasar 

type Quasar struct {
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

Quasar is the core Post-Quantum BFT consensus engine for Q-Chain. Like a supermassive black hole, it pulls all blocks to quantum finality using dual BLS+Corona threshold signatures: - BLS threshold signatures (classical security, fast path) - Corona threshold signatures (post-quantum, Ring-LWE based)

Blocks are NOT considered produced without BOTH thresholds being met.

func NewQuasar 

func NewQuasar(cfg QuasarConfig) (*Quasar, error)

NewQuasar creates a new Quasar PQ-BFT consensus engine

func (*Quasar) AddBLSSignature

AddValidator adds a new validator to the Quasar consensus

func (*Quasar) BatchNTTForwardCorona added in v1.2.3 

func (q *Quasar) BatchNTTForwardCorona(polys [][]uint64) ([][]uint64, error)

BatchNTTForwardCorona transforms multiple polynomials in parallel on GPU. Used when processing multiple Corona signature shares simultaneously.

func (*Quasar) GetActiveValidators 

func (q *Quasar) GetActiveValidators() int

GetActiveValidators returns the count of active validators

func (*Quasar) GetQuasar 

func (q *Quasar) GetQuasar() *quasar.Quasar

func (*Quasar) GetThreshold 

func (q *Quasar) GetThreshold() int

GetThreshold returns the consensus threshold

func (*Quasar) InitializeDualThreshold 

func (q *Quasar) InitializeDualThreshold(ctx context.Context) error

InitializeDualThreshold sets up BLS and Corona threshold keys for a new epoch

func (*Quasar) IsFinalized 

func (q *Quasar) IsFinalized(blockID ids.ID) bool

IsFinalized checks if a block has been finalized with BOTH signature types

func (*Quasar) NTTForwardCorona added in v1.2.3 

func (q *Quasar) NTTForwardCorona(coefficients []uint64) ([]uint64, error)

NTTForwardCorona transforms Corona polynomial coefficients to NTT domain using GPU acceleration when available. This enables O(n log n) polynomial multiplication in the Ring-LWE scheme used by Corona threshold signatures.

func (*Quasar) NTTInverseCorona added in v1.2.3 

func (q *Quasar) NTTInverseCorona(evaluations []uint64) ([]uint64, error)

type SLHDSAVariant added in v1.3.0 

type SLHDSAVariant uint8

SLHDSAVariant enumerates the 12 FIPS 205 SLH-DSA parameter sets. Each variant has its own (pk, sig) byte width — surfaced via PublicKeySize() and SignatureSize() so callers can build the batch arrays correctly.

At ABI v14 only the SHAKE-128f and SHAKE-192f verify slots are wired (op_slhdsa_verify_batch and op_slhdsa_verify_batch_shake192f). The remaining 10 variants land at their own vtbl slots in future ABI bumps; passing them today returns ErrGPUNotAvailable. 

const (
	SLHDSAShake128f SLHDSAVariant = iota
	SLHDSAShake128s
	SLHDSAShake192f
	SLHDSAShake192s
