Struct Point 

pub struct Point(/* private fields */);

A point on the curve, the point at infinity included.

Held in the arithmetic driver’s own representation (projective coordinates, typically), so a chain of operations converts to affine coordinates once, when asked to through Self::to_affine. Comparing two points converts both. Arithmetic is served by the curve’s arithmetic driver.

Implementations

impl Point

pub fn generator() -> Self

The base point G.

pub fn identity() -> Self

The point at infinity.

pub fn from_xy(x: &[u8; 48], y: &[u8; 48]) -> Result<Self, Error>

Build a point from its coordinates, checking that it is on the curve.

pub fn from_sec1(bytes: &[u8; 97]) -> Result<Self, Error>

Parse an uncompressed SEC1 encoding (0x04 || x || y), checking that the point is on the curve.

pub fn from_affine(p: &P384Point) -> Result<Self, Error>

Import an affine point, checking that it is on the curve.

pub fn to_affine(&self) -> Option<P384Point>

The affine coordinates, or None for the point at infinity.

pub fn to_sec1(&self) -> Option<[u8; 97]>

The uncompressed SEC1 encoding (0x04 || x || y), or None for the point at infinity.

pub fn is_identity(&self) -> bool

Whether this is the point at infinity.

pub fn from_driver(p: P384ArithImplPoint) -> Self

Wrap a point in the driver representation.

pub fn as_driver(&self) -> &P384ArithImplPoint

The driver representation.

pub fn neg(&self) -> Self

-self.

pub fn add(&self, other: &Self) -> Self

self + other.

pub fn mul(&self, k: &Scalar) -> Self

k * self.

pub fn mul_base(k: &Scalar) -> Self

k * G.

pub fn lincomb(a: &Scalar, p: &Self, b: &Scalar, q: &Self) -> Self

a * p + b * q.

Constant-time in the scalars: safe for secret scalars, as in a PAKE or a Schnorr-style signature. Cheaper than the equivalent muls and add when the driver shares the doublings.

pub fn lincomb_vartime(a: &Scalar, p: &Self, b: &Scalar, q: &Self) -> Self

a * p + b * q.

May be variable-time: only for public inputs, as in signature verification. Faster than Self::lincomb.
