It was extracted +by source code analysis (i.e. we looked at the code and tried really hard to name what we see), so it +may or may not match the reality (whether due to a mistake or due to different naming choices). + +We restricted ourselves to ECDH/ECDSA (on prime field curves) and x25519/Ed25519. In case libraries contain multiple +implementations we tried to document them clearly, along with the rules on how they pick one +(e.g. curve-based/architecture-based). Naming of scalar multipliers is tricky. Naming of coordinate systems +and formulas is taken from the `EFD <https://www.hyperelliptic.org/EFD/index.html>`__. + BouncyCastle ============ |
