Subject: [PATCH v2 00/14]  Add support for NIST P521 to ecdsa and ecdh
Date: Thu, 15 Feb 2024 18:13:59 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240215231414.3857320-1-stefanb@linux.ibm.com> (raw)

This series of patches adds support for the NIST P521 curve to ecdsa and
ecdh. Test cases for NIST P521 are added to both modules.

An issue with the current code in ecdsa and ecdh is that it assumes that
input arrays providing key coordinates for example, are arrays of digits
(a 'digit' is a 'u64'). This works well for all currently supported
curves, such as NIST P192/256/384, but does not work for NIST P521 where
coordinates are 8 digits + 2 bytes long. So some of the changes deal with
converting byte arrays to digits and digits to byte arrays.

Regards,
   Stefan
