Replaced by explicit APIs on the CurveAffine trait.
GroupDecodingError has been moved into pairing::bls12_381::ec, as it is
no longer used by the group traits.
Replaces the mutating CurveProjective::batch_normalization API, and
removes the need for CurveProjective::is_normalized.
The new temporary implementation in pairing::bls12_381::ec is adapted
from bls12_381::g1.
The GroupOps trait represents the group operation (addition), and the
combination of the group operation with group inversion (subtraction).
Group inversion (negation) is constrained directly on the Group trait.
Group represents a cryptographic group with a large prime-order subgroup
and a small cofactor. PrimeGroup further constrains the group to have a
cofactor of one.
Define the spend_hash, output_hash, sprout_hash circuit hashes as constants in the load_parameters function, so we don't have to take them as function arguments.
Now that PrimeField::ReprEndianness exists, users can obtain a
known-endianness representation from the output of PrimeField::char
(which is a PrimeField::Repr, and should return a representation with
the same endianness as PrimeField::into_repr).
ff_derive still implements Ord and PartialOrd for the fields it
implements, because pairing::bls12_381 internally assumes that those are
implemented. Once we delete that implementation, we will remove the Ord
and PartialOrd implementations from ff_derive.
This enables generic code to reliably operate on the bits of an encoded
field element, by converting them to and from a known (little)
endianness.
The BitAnd and Shr bounds on PrimeField are now removed, as users can
perform these operations themselves as needed.
The sqrt() function is now part of the Field trait. ff_derive returns an
error on fields for which it does not support generating a square root
function.
Note that Fq6 and Fq12 in pairing::bls12_381 leave the function
unimplemented. They will be dropped once the migration to the bls12_381
crate is complete. The equivalent structs in that crate are not exposed.
The trait is implemented by default for u8 and u64, allowing pow_vartime
to be used with both the byte encoding and limb representation of field
elements.
Now that the librustzcash crate has been removed from the repository and
workspace, there are no crates that generate binary artifacts, and cargo
ignores Cargo.lock when publishing library crates.
