2017-01-26First attempt at using Pavel's ecdsa256 core. Not working yet.Rob Austein
Attempts to use Pavel's ecdsa256 base point multiplier instead of software point multiplier when selecting new random points (that is, when generating P-256 keys or P-256 signatures). Resulting points pass the point validation test (point_is_on_curve()) but the resulting signatures are invalid. Don't know why yet. Seems like an odd combination, as one would expect random garbage to fail validation. In any case: this commit is intended to archive progress so far, and perhaps see if somebody else can spot what's wrong. As presently coded, this wouldn't be suitable for production use even if it worked. NB: As I understand it, the ecdsa256 core is *not* a general purpose point multiplier even just for the P-256 curve. Rather, it is strictly a base point multiplier: it takes a single scalar as input, and returns the X,Y affine coordinates of the curve's base point multiplied by that scalar. This is essentially the eliptic curve portion of the computation involved in picking a random point for key or signature generation, but is not useful for signature validation. See the README.md in Pavel's source repository for further details.

which was using the old (pre-hal_core_t) calling sequence.

2015-12-20Drop support for the ASN.1-based ECDSA signature format in favor ofRob Austein
the simpler format which PKCS #11 uses, since we have to support the latter in any case and it's not worth the complexity of supporting both.

public key extraction functions on hold pending ASN.1 cleanup.

Compiles, not yet tested.
2015-10-03Use initializers for automatic variables of type fp_int because it's aRob Austein
bit more obvious when we've forgotten to do this than when we've forgotten to call fp_init() or memset(). Convert rsa.c to use the one-element-array idiom so we can get stop prefixing every bignum reference with "&".
2015-10-02Impressive how much trouble one can get into with one uninitialized bignum.Rob Austein
2015-10-02Testing shows that signature and verification are both faster withRob Austein
mixed Jacobian-affine addition, so go with that. Minor additional clean-up and comments.
2015-10-02Revise point addition and point scalar multiplication routines to useRob Austein
mixed Jacobian-affine coordinates, per a suggestion from Pavel. Old code still present under compile time conditional for easy comparison, but will probably go away soon along with a bit of minor cleanup.

2015-08-22Add hal_ecdsa_verify(). Move hashing out of ECDSA routines. Clean upRob Austein
a few bits that didn't pass self-review.
2015-08-21Updated point doubling and addition to use algorithms from theRob Austein
hyperelliptic.org formula database. Compiles, still not tested.
2015-08-21Snapshot along the way to ECDSA. Code mostly written, except forRob Austein
ecdsa_verify(). Untested. Point addition and doubling algorithms are the ones from libtomcrypt, main point of this commit is to save those before replacing them with faster algorithms from hyperelliptic.org.
