Struct ecdsa::RecoveryId

source ·
pub struct RecoveryId(_);
Expand description

Recovery IDs, a.k.a. “recid”.

This is an integer value 0, 1, 2, or 3 included along with a signature which is used during the recovery process to select the correct public key from the signature.

It consists of two bits of information:

  • low bit (0/1): was the y-coordinate of the affine point resulting from the fixed-base multiplication 𝑘×𝑮 odd? This part of the algorithm functions similar to point decompression.
  • hi bit (3/4): did the affine x-coordinate of 𝑘×𝑮 overflow the order of the scalar field, requiring a reduction when computing r?

Implementations§

Maximum supported value for the recovery ID (inclusive).

Create a new RecoveryId from the following 1-bit arguments:

  • is_y_odd: is the affine y-coordinate of 𝑘×𝑮 odd?
  • is_x_reduced: did the affine x-coordinate of 𝑘×𝑮 overflow the curve order?

Did the affine x-coordinate of 𝑘×𝑮 overflow the curve order?

Is the affine y-coordinate of 𝑘×𝑮 odd?
