The following function has been deprecated since OpenSSL 3.0, and can be
|
|
hidden entirely by defining B<OPENSSL_API_COMPAT> with a suitable version value,
|
|
see L<openssl_user_macros(7)>:
|
|
|
|
const EC_METHOD *EC_GROUP_method_of(const EC_GROUP *group);
|
|
|
|
=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
EC_GROUP_copy() copies the curve B<src> into B<dst>. Both B<src> and B<dst> must use the same EC_METHOD.
|
|
|
|
EC_GROUP_dup() creates a new EC_GROUP object and copies the content from B<src> to the newly created
|
|
EC_GROUP object.
|
|
|
|
EC_GROUP_method_of() obtains the EC_METHOD of B<group>.
|
|
This function was deprecated in OpenSSL 3.0, since EC_METHOD is no longer a public concept.
|
|
|
|
EC_GROUP_set_generator() sets curve parameters that must be agreed by all participants using the curve. These
|
|
parameters include the B<generator>, the B<order> and the B<cofactor>. The B<generator> is a well defined point on the
|
|
curve chosen for cryptographic operations. Integers used for point multiplications will be between 0 and
|
|
n-1 where n is the B<order>. The B<order> multiplied by the B<cofactor> gives the number of points on the curve.
|
|
|
|
EC_GROUP_get0_generator() returns the generator for the identified B<group>.
|
|
|
|
EC_GROUP_get_order() retrieves the order of B<group> and copies its value into
|
|
B<order>. It fails in case B<group> is not fully initialized (i.e., its order
|
|
is not set or set to zero).
|
|
|
|
EC_GROUP_get_cofactor() retrieves the cofactor of B<group> and copies its value
|
|
into B<cofactor>. It fails in case B<group> is not fully initialized or if the
|
|
cofactor is not set (or set to zero).
|
|
|
|
The functions EC_GROUP_set_curve_name() and EC_GROUP_get_curve_name(), set and get the NID for the curve respectively
|
|
(see L<EC_GROUP_new(3)>). If a curve does not have a NID associated with it, then EC_GROUP_get_curve_name
|
|
will return NID_undef.
|
|
|
|
The asn1_flag value is used to determine whether the curve encoding uses
|
|
explicit parameters or a named curve using an ASN1 OID: many applications only
|
|
support the latter form. If asn1_flag is B<OPENSSL_EC_NAMED_CURVE> then the
|
|
named curve form is used and the parameters must have a corresponding
|
|
named curve NID set. If asn1_flags is B<OPENSSL_EC_EXPLICIT_CURVE> the
|
|
parameters are explicitly encoded. The functions EC_GROUP_get_asn1_flag() and
|
|
EC_GROUP_set_asn1_flag() get and set the status of the asn1_flag for the curve.
|
|
Note: B<OPENSSL_EC_EXPLICIT_CURVE> was added in OpenSSL 1.1.0, for
|
|
previous versions of OpenSSL the value 0 must be used instead. Before OpenSSL
|
|
1.1.0 the default form was to use explicit parameters (meaning that
|
|
applications would have to explicitly set the named curve form) in OpenSSL
|
|
1.1.0 and later the named curve form is the default.
|
|
|
|
The point_conversion_form for a curve controls how EC_POINT data is encoded as ASN1 as defined in X9.62 (ECDSA).
|
|
point_conversion_form_t is an enum defined as follows:
|
|
|
|
typedef enum {
|
|
/** the point is encoded as z||x, where the octet z specifies
|
|
* which solution of the quadratic equation y is */
|
|
POINT_CONVERSION_COMPRESSED = 2,
|
|
/** the point is encoded as z||x||y, where z is the octet 0x04 */
|
|
POINT_CONVERSION_UNCOMPRESSED = 4,
|
|
/** the point is encoded as z||x||y, where the octet z specifies
|
|
* which solution of the quadratic equation y is */
|
|
POINT_CONVERSION_HYBRID = 6
|
|
} point_conversion_form_t;
|
|
|
|
For POINT_CONVERSION_UNCOMPRESSED the point is encoded as an octet signifying the UNCOMPRESSED form has been used followed by
|
|
the octets for x, followed by the octets for y.
|
|
|
|
For any given x coordinate for a point on a curve it is possible to derive two possible y values. For
|
|
POINT_CONVERSION_COMPRESSED the point is encoded as an octet signifying that the COMPRESSED form has been used AND which of
|
|
the two possible solutions for y has been used, followed by the octets for x.
|
|
|
|
For POINT_CONVERSION_HYBRID the point is encoded as an octet signifying the HYBRID form has been used AND which of the two
|
|
possible solutions for y has been used, followed by the octets for x, followed by the octets for y.
|
|
|
|
The functions EC_GROUP_set_point_conversion_form() and EC_GROUP_get_point_conversion_form(), set and get the point_conversion_form
|
|
for the curve respectively.
|
|
|
|
ANSI X9.62 (ECDSA standard) defines a method of generating the curve parameter b from a random number. This provides advantages
|
|
in that a parameter obtained in this way is highly unlikely to be susceptible to special purpose attacks, or have any trapdoors in it.
|
|
If the seed is present for a curve then the b parameter was generated in a verifiable fashion using that seed. The OpenSSL EC library
|
|
does not use this seed value but does enable you to inspect it using EC_GROUP_get0_seed(). This returns a pointer to a memory block
|
|
containing the seed that was used. The length of the memory block can be obtained using EC_GROUP_get_seed_len(). A number of the
|
|
built-in curves within the library provide seed values that can be obtained. It is also possible to set a custom seed using
|
|
EC_GROUP_set_seed() and passing a pointer to a memory block, along with the length of the seed. Again, the EC library will not use
|
|
this seed value, although it will be preserved in any ASN1 based communications.
|
|
|
|
EC_GROUP_get_degree() gets the degree of the field.
|
|
For Fp fields this will be the number of bits in p.
|
|
For F2^m fields this will be the value m.
|
|
|
|
EC_GROUP_get_field_type() identifies what type of field the EC_GROUP structure supports,
|
|
which will be either F2^m or Fp.
|
|
|
|
The function EC_GROUP_check_discriminant() calculates the discriminant for the curve and verifies that it is valid.
|
|
For a curve defined over Fp the discriminant is given by the formula 4*a^3 + 27*b^2 whilst for F2^m curves the discriminant is
|
|
simply b. In either case for the curve to be valid the discriminant must be non zero.
|
|
|
|
The function EC_GROUP_check() behaves in the following way:
|
|
For the OpenSSL default provider it performs a number of checks on a curve to verify that it is valid. Checks performed include
|
|
verifying that the discriminant is non zero; that a generator has been defined; that the generator is on the curve and has
|
|
the correct order. For the OpenSSL FIPS provider it uses EC_GROUP_check_named_curve() to conform to SP800-56Ar3.
|
|
|
|
The function EC_GROUP_check_named_curve() determines if the group's domain parameters match one of the built-in curves supported by the library.
|
|
The curve name is returned as a B<NID> if it matches. If the group's domain parameters have been modified then no match will be found.
|
|
If the curve name of the given group is B<NID_undef> (e.g. it has been created by using explicit parameters with no curve name),
|
|
then this method can be used to lookup the name of the curve that matches the group domain parameters. The built-in curves contain
|
|
aliases, so that multiple NID's can map to the same domain parameters. For such curves it is unspecified which of the aliases will be
|
|
returned if the curve name of the given group is NID_undef.
|
|
If B<nist_only> is 1 it will only look for NIST approved curves, otherwise it searches all built-in curves.
|
|
This function may be passed a BN_CTX object in the B<ctx> parameter.
|
|
The B<ctx> parameter may be NULL.
|
|
|
|
EC_GROUP_cmp() compares B<a> and B<b> to determine whether they represent the same curve or not.
|
|
|
|
The functions EC_GROUP_get_basis_type(), EC_GROUP_get_trinomial_basis() and EC_GROUP_get_pentanomial_basis() should only be called for curves
|
|
defined over an F2^m field. Addition and multiplication operations within an F2^m field are performed using an irreducible polynomial
|
|
function f(x). This function is either a trinomial of the form:
|
|
|
|
f(x) = x^m + x^k + 1 with m > k >= 1
|
|
|
|
or a pentanomial of the form:
|
|
|
|
f(x) = x^m + x^k3 + x^k2 + x^k1 + 1 with m > k3 > k2 > k1 >= 1
|
|
|
|
The function EC_GROUP_get_basis_type() returns a NID identifying whether a trinomial or pentanomial is in use for the field. The
|
|
function EC_GROUP_get_trinomial_basis() must only be called where f(x) is of the trinomial form, and returns the value of B<k>. Similarly
|
|
the function EC_GROUP_get_pentanomial_basis() must only be called where f(x) is of the pentanomial form, and returns the values of B<k1>,
|
|
B<k2> and B<k3> respectively.
|
|
|
|

EC_GROUP_get_field_type() returns either B<NID_X9_62_prime_field> for prime curves
|
|
or B<NID_X9_62_characteristic_two_field> for binary curves;

|
specified. EC_GROUP_get_seed_len() returns the length of the seed or 0 if the seed is not specified.
