Detailed Description

ECSDSA (Elliptic Curve-based Schnorr Digital Signature Algorithm).

Schnorr signature algorithm is a non-standard alternative to ECDSA. Several implementations of Schnorr signature algorithm are supported here.

Function Documentation

cx_ecschnorr_sign()

static int cx_ecschnorr_sign ( const cx_ecfp_private_key_t pvkey,
int  mode,
cx_md_t  hashID,
const unsigned char *  msg,
unsigned int  msg_len,
unsigned char *  sig,
size_t  sig_len,
unsigned int *  info 
)

Signs a digest message according to the given mode.

This function throws an exception if the computation doesn't succeed.

Warning
It is recommended to use cx_ecschnorr_sign_no_throw rather than this function.
Parameters
[in]pvkeyPointer to the private key initialized with cx_ecfp_init_private_key_no_throw beforehand.
[in]modeMode. Supported flag:
  • CX_ECSCHNORR_XY

  • CX_ECSCHNORR_BSI03111
  • CX_ECSCHNORR_LIBSECP
  • CX_ECSCHNORR_Z
  • CX_ECSCHNORR_BIP0340
[in]hashIDMessage digest algorithm identifier. This parameter is mandatory when using the CX_RND_RFC6979 pseudorandom number generator.
[in]msgInput data to sign.
[in]msg_lenLength of input data.
[out]sigECSchnorr signature encoded in TLV: 30 || L || 02 || Lr || r || 02 || Ls || s. This parameter holds the auxiliary random data when CX_ECSCHNORR_BIP0340 is used.
[in]sig_lenLength of the signature.
[in]infoAdditional information. This parameter is not used.
Returns
Length of the signature.
Exceptions
