=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
EC_POINT_add adds the two points B<a> and B<b> and places the result in B<r>. Similarly EC_POINT_dbl doubles the point B<a> and places the
|
|
result in B<r>. In both cases it is valid for B<r> to be one of B<a> or B<b>.
|
|
|
|
EC_POINT_invert calculates the inverse of the supplied point B<a>. The result is placed back in B<a>.
|
|
|
|
The function EC_POINT_is_at_infinity tests whether the supplied point is at infinity or not.
|
|
|
|
EC_POINT_is_on_curve tests whether the supplied point is on the curve or not.
|
|
|
|
EC_POINT_cmp compares the two supplied points and tests whether or not they are equal.
|
|
|
|
The functions EC_POINT_make_affine and EC_POINTs_make_affine force the internal representation of the EC_POINT(s) into the affine
|
|
co-ordinate system. In the case of EC_POINTs_make_affine the value B<num> provides the number of points in the array B<points> to be
|
|
forced. These functions were deprecated in OpenSSL 3.0 and should no longer be used.
|
|
Modern versions automatically perform this conversion when needed.
|
|
|
|
EC_POINT_mul calculates the value generator * B<n> + B<q> * B<m> and stores the result in B<r>.
|
|
The value B<n> may be NULL in which case the result is just B<q> * B<m> (variable point multiplication). Alternatively, both B<q> and B<m> may be NULL, and B<n> non-NULL, in which case the result is just generator * B<n> (fixed point multiplication).
|
|
When performing a single fixed or variable point multiplication, the underlying implementation uses a constant time algorithm, when the input scalar (either B<n> or B<m>) is in the range [0, ec_group_order).
|
|
|
|
Although deprecated in OpenSSL 3.0 and should no longer be used,
|
|
EC_POINTs_mul calculates the value generator * B<n> + B<q[0]> * B<m[0]> + ... + B<q[num-1]> * B<m[num-1]>. As for EC_POINT_mul the value B<n> may be NULL or B<num> may be zero.
|
|
When performing a fixed point multiplication (B<n> is non-NULL and B<num> is 0) or a variable point multiplication (B<n> is NULL and B<num> is 1), the underlying implementation uses a constant time algorithm, when the input scalar (either B<n> or B<m[0]>) is in the range [0, ec_group_order).
|
|
Modern versions should instead use EC_POINT_mul(), combined (if needed) with EC_POINT_add() in such rare circumstances.
|
|
|
|
The function EC_GROUP_precompute_mult stores multiples of the generator for faster point multiplication, whilst
|
|
EC_GROUP_have_precompute_mult tests whether precomputation has already been done. See L<EC_GROUP_copy(3)> for information
|
|
about the generator. Precomputation functionality was deprecated in OpenSSL 3.0.
|
|
Users of EC_GROUP_precompute_mult() and EC_GROUP_have_precompute_mult() should
|
|
switch to named curves which OpenSSL has hardcoded lookup tables for.
|
|
|
|
=head1 RETURN VALUES
|
|
|
|
The following functions return 1 on success or 0 on error: EC_POINT_add, EC_POINT_dbl, EC_POINT_invert, EC_POINT_make_affine,
|
|
EC_POINTs_make_affine, EC_POINTs_make_affine, EC_POINT_mul, EC_POINTs_mul and EC_GROUP_precompute_mult.
|
|
|
|
EC_POINT_is_at_infinity returns 1 if the point is at infinity, or 0 otherwise.
|
|
|
|
EC_POINT_is_on_curve returns 1 if the point is on the curve, 0 if not, or -1 on error.
|
|
|
|
EC_POINT_cmp returns 1 if the points are not equal, 0 if they are, or -1 on error.
|
|
|
|
EC_GROUP_have_precompute_mult return 1 if a precomputation has been done, or 0 if not.
