The HPQCD collaboration has a program for determining the fundamental constants of the Standard Model Lagrangian from lattice QCD. The most accurate method of doing this uses the n_f=2+1 improved staggered MILC ensembles with chiral fitting and multi-loop perturbative renormalisation to connect to the continuum \msbar scheme. This program has already been very successful with the recent strong coupling constant determination at three-loops from 28 observables at three lattice spacings, and the one-loop light quark mass calculation last year. Here a preliminary result is presented for the first-ever lattice determination of the two-loop multiplicative quark mass renormalisation. The perturbative calculation involved was automated in the generation of the Feynman rules, and the generation and coding of all of the roughly 30 Feynman diagrams. The full formal framework for lattice quark mass renormalisation is given, including the cancellation of infrared divergences in intermediate diagrams. The result was checked by evaluation in three separate gauges and by two authors independently, showing the incredible flexibility and power of this perturbative methodology. Our preliminary result for the two-loop perturbative matching factor, and of systematic errors associated with higher-orders, gives \msbar masses at a 2 GeV scale of $m_s = 87(0)(4)(4)(0)$ MeV, and $\frac12(m_u+m_d) = 3.3(0)(2)(2)(0)$ MeV, where the respective uncertainties are from lattice statistical, lattice systematic, perturbative, and electromagnetic and isospin effects. The perturbative errors are a factor of two smaller than in our previous study, and we anticipate reducing this somewhat further from additional analysis of the systematics.
