From 24e78a11838b5b911fc4a003f68b779f8b42e6f6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: schwarze <> Date: Sun, 11 Dec 2016 14:22:43 +0000 Subject: Distribute the text of ec(3) to the individual EC manuals where it belongs. Make sure EC_GROUP_new(3) points to all EC manuals and all EC manuals point back to EC_GROUP_new(3), and add some other useful links as well. Change all links to ec(3) to point to EC_GROUP_new(3) instead. --- src/lib/libcrypto/man/EC_GFp_simple_method.3 | 10 +++++++--- 1 file changed, 7 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) (limited to 'src/lib/libcrypto/man/EC_GFp_simple_method.3') diff --git a/src/lib/libcrypto/man/EC_GFp_simple_method.3 b/src/lib/libcrypto/man/EC_GFp_simple_method.3 index d2f0d76bce..7f08e707f5 100644 --- a/src/lib/libcrypto/man/EC_GFp_simple_method.3 +++ b/src/lib/libcrypto/man/EC_GFp_simple_method.3 @@ -1,4 +1,4 @@ -.\" $OpenBSD: EC_GFp_simple_method.3,v 1.5 2016/12/06 14:54:55 schwarze Exp $ +.\" $OpenBSD: EC_GFp_simple_method.3,v 1.6 2016/12/11 14:22:43 schwarze Exp $ .\" OpenSSL b97fdb57 Nov 11 09:33:09 2016 +0100 .\" .\" This file was written by Matt Caswell . @@ -48,7 +48,7 @@ .\" ARISING IN ANY WAY OUT OF THE USE OF THIS SOFTWARE, EVEN IF ADVISED .\" OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGE. .\" -.Dd $Mdocdate: December 6 2016 $ +.Dd $Mdocdate: December 11 2016 $ .Dt EC_GFP_SIMPLE_METHOD 3 .Os .Sh NAME @@ -84,6 +84,11 @@ .Sh DESCRIPTION The elliptic curve library provides a number of different implementations through a single common interface. +Each implementation is optimised for different scenarios. +An implementation is represented by an +.Vt EC_METHOD +structure. +.Pp When constructing a curve using .Xr EC_GROUP_new 3 , an implementation method must be provided. @@ -149,7 +154,6 @@ structure supports. .Sh SEE ALSO .Xr BN_mod_mul_montgomery 3 , .Xr d2i_ECPKParameters 3 , -.Xr ec 3 , .Xr EC_GROUP_copy 3 , .Xr EC_GROUP_new 3 , .Xr EC_KEY_new 3 , -- cgit v1.2.3-55-g6feb
