* Add dkg crate
* Remove F_len and G_len
They're generally no longer used.
* Replace hash_to_vec with a provided method around associated type H: Digest
Part of trying to minimize this trait so it can be moved elsewhere. Vec,
which isn't std, may have been a blocker.
* Encrypt secret shares within the FROST library
Reduces requirements on callers in order to be correct.
* Update usage of Zeroize within FROST
* Inline functions in key_gen
There was no reason to have them separated as they were. sign probably
has the same statement available, yet that isn't the focus right now.
* Add a ciphersuite package which provides hash_to_F
* Set the Ciphersuite version to something valid
* Have ed448 export Scalar/FieldElement/Point at the top level
* Move FROST over to Ciphersuite
* Correct usage of ff in ciphersuite
* Correct documentation handling
* Move Schnorr signatures to their own crate
* Remove unused feature from schnorr
* Fix Schnorr tests
* Split DKG into a separate crate
* Add serialize to Commitments and SecretShare
Helper for buf = vec![]; .write(buf).unwrap(); buf
* Move FROST over to the new dkg crate
* Update Monero lib to latest FROST
* Correct ethereum's usage of features
* Add serialize to GeneratorProof
* Add serialize helper function to FROST
* Rename AddendumSerialize to WriteAddendum
* Update processor
* Slight fix to processor
* Create message types for FROST key gen
Taking in reader borrows absolutely wasn't feasible. Now, proper types
which can be read (and then passed directly, without a mutable borrow)
exist for key_gen. sign coming next.
* Move FROST signing to messages, not Readers/Writers/Vec<u8>
Also takes the nonce handling code and makes a dedicated file for it,
aiming to resolve complex types and make the code more legible by
replacing its previously inlined state.
* clippy
* Update FROST tests
* read_signature_share
* Update the Monero library to the new FROST packages
* Update processor to latest FROST
* Tweaks to terminology and documentation
The round was usable to build the current clock in an accumulated
fashion, relative to the previous round. The end time is the absolute
metric of it, which can be used to calculate the round number (with all
previous end times).
Substrate now builds off the best block, not genesis, using the end time
included in the justification to start its machine in a synchronized
state.
Knowing the end time of a round, or the round in which block was
committed to, is necessary for nodes to sync up with Tendermint.
Encoding it in the commit ensures it's long lasting and makes it readily
available, without the load of an entire transaction.
The machine reset to the end time of the current round. For a delayed
network connection, a machine may move ahead in rounds and only later
realize a prior round succeeded. Despite acknowledging that round's
success, it would maintain its delay when moving to the next block,
bricking it.
Done by tracking the end time for each round as they occur.
Substrate doesn't expect nor officially support children with less work
than their parents. It's a trick used here. Accordingly, ensure the
trick's validity.
By claiming File, they're not sent ovber the P2P network before they
have a justification, as desired. Unfortunately, they never were. This
works around that.
The BasicQueue returned obscures the TendermintImport struct.
Accordingly, a Future scoped with access is returned upwards, which when
awaited will create the machine. This makes creating the machine
optional while maintaining scope boundaries.
Is sufficient to create a 1-node net which produces and finalizes
blocks.
