Monero uses aggregated range proofs, so there's only ever one Bulletproof. This
is enforced with a consensus rule as well, making this safe.
As for why Monero uses a vec, it's probably due to the lack of variadic typing
used. Its effectively an Option for them, yet we don't need an Option since we
do have variadic typing (enums).
Both methods were ports from Monero, overtly specific without clear
documentation. They need to be added back in, with documentation, or included
in a node which provides the necessary further context for them to be naturally
understandable.
* Move monero-serai from std to std-shims, where possible
* no-std fixes
* Make the HttpRpc its own feature, thiserror only on std
* Drop monero-rs's epee for a homegrown one
We only need it for a single function. While I tried jeffro's, it didn't work
out of the box, had three unimplemented!s, and is no where near viable for
no_std.
Fixes#182, though should be further tested.
* no-std monero-serai
* Allow base58-monero via git
* cargo fmt
lazy_static, if no_std environments were used, effectively required always
using spin locks. This resolves the ergonomics of that while adopting Rust std
code.
no_std does still use a spin based solution. Theoretically, we could use
atomics, yet writing our own Mutex wasn't a priority.
* Partial move to ff 0.13
It turns out the newly released k256 0.12 isn't on ff 0.13, preventing further
work at this time.
* Update all crates to work on ff 0.13
The provided curves still need to be expanded to fit the new API.
* Finish adding dalek-ff-group ff 0.13 constants
* Correct FieldElement::product definition
Also stops exporting macros.
* Test most new parts of ff 0.13
* Additionally test ff-group-tests with BLS12-381 and the pasta curves
We only tested curves from RustCrypto. Now we test a curve offered by zk-crypto,
the group behind ff/group, and the pasta curves, which is by Zcash (though
Zcash developers are also behind zk-crypto).
* Finish Ed448
Fully specifies all constants, passes all tests in ff-group-tests, and finishes moving to ff-0.13.
* Add RustCrypto/elliptic-curves to allowed git repos
Needed due to k256/p256 incorrectly defining product.
* Finish writing ff 0.13 tests
* Add additional comments to dalek
* Further comments
* Update ethereum-serai to ff 0.13
