Péter Szilágyi d9575e92fc crypto/secp256k1: remove external LGPL dependencies (#17239) 2018-07-26 13:33:13 +02:00
Péter Szilágyi afd8b84706 crypto/secp256k1: unify the package license to 3-Clause BSD (#17225)
Our original wrapper code had two parts. One taken from a third
party repository (who took it from upstream Go) licensed under
BSD-3. The second written by Jeff, Felix and Gustav, licensed
under LGPL. This made this package problematic to use from the
outside.

With the agreement of the original copyright holders, this commit
changes the license of the LGPL portions of the code to BSD-3:

---
I agree changing from LGPL to a BSD style license.

Hey guys,

My preference would be to relicense to GNUBL, but I'm also OK with BSD.

Cheers,
Gustav

Felix Lange (fjl):
I would approve anything that makes our licensing less complicated

Felix Lange 5f7826270c all: unify big.Int zero checks, use common/math in more places (#3716)
* common/math: optimize PaddedBigBytes, use it more

PaddedBigBytes-8    71.1ns ± 5%    46.1ns ± 1%  -35.15%  (p=0.000 n=20+19)

* all: unify big.Int zero checks

Various checks were in use. This commit replaces them all with Int.Sign,
which is cheaper and less code.

eg templates:

    func before(x *big.Int) bool { return x.BitLen() == 0 }
    func after(x *big.Int) bool  { return x.Sign() == 0 }

    func before(x *big.Int) bool { return x.BitLen() > 0 }
    func after(x *big.Int) bool  { return x.Sign() != 0 }

    func before(x *big.Int) int { return x.Cmp(common.Big0) }
    func after(x *big.Int) int  { return x.Sign() }

* common/math, crypto/secp256k1: make ReadBits public in package math

Felix Lange e0ceeab0d1 crypto/secp256k1: update to github.com/bitcoin-core/secp256k1 @ 9d560f9 (#3544)
- Use defined constants instead of hard-coding their integer value.
- Allocate secp256k1 structs on the C stack instead of converting []byte
- Remove dead code

Felix Lange 1b29aed128 crypto/secp256k1: verify recovery ID before calling libsecp256k1
The C library treats the recovery ID as trusted input and crashes
the process for invalid values, so it needs to be verified before
calling into C. This will inhibit the crash in #1983.

Also remove VerifySignature because we don't use it.

Felix Lange 3f047be5aa all: update license headers to distiguish GPL/LGPL
All code outside of cmd/ is licensed as LGPL. The headers
now reflect this by calling the whole work "the go-ethereum library".
