ecc: New API function gcry_mpi_ec_decode_point.
* mpi/ec.c (_gcry_mpi_ec_decode_point): New. * cipher/ecc-common.h: Move two prototypes to ... * src/ec-context.h: here. * src/gcrypt.h.in (gcry_mpi_ec_decode_point): New. * src/libgcrypt.def (gcry_mpi_ec_decode_point): New. * src/libgcrypt.vers (gcry_mpi_ec_decode_point): New. * src/visibility.c (gcry_mpi_ec_decode_point): New. * src/visibility.h: Add new function.
This new function make the use of the gcry_mpi_ec_curve_point function
possible in many contexts. Here is a code snippet which could be used
in gpg to check a point:
static gpg_error_t
check_point (PKT_public_key *pk, gcry_mpi_t m_point)
{
gpg_error_t err; char *curve; gcry_ctx_t gctx = NULL; gcry_mpi_point_t point = NULL; /* Get the curve name from the first OpenPGP key parameter. */ curve = openpgp_oid_to_str (pk->pkey[0]); if (!curve) { err = gpg_error_from_syserror (); goto leave; } point = gcry_mpi_point_new (0); if (!point) { err = gpg_error_from_syserror (); goto leave; } err = gcry_mpi_ec_new (&gctx, NULL, curve); if (err) goto leave; err = gcry_mpi_ec_decode_point (point, m_point, gctx); if (err) goto leave; if (!gcry_mpi_ec_curve_point (point, gctx)) err = gpg_error (GPG_ERR_BAD_DATA);
leave:
gcry_ctx_release (gctx); gcry_mpi_point_release (point); xfree (curve); return err;
}
