The prior-present `Ciphersuite::hash_to_F` was a sin. Implementations took a
DST, yet were not require to securely handle it. It was also biased towards the
requirements of `modular-frost` as `ciphersuite` was originally written all
those years ago, when `modular-frost` had needs exceeding what `ff`, `group`
satisfied.
Now, the hash is bound to produce an output which can be converted to a scalar
with `ff::FromUniformBytes`. A new `hash_to_F`, which accepts a single argument
of the value to hash (removing the potential to insecurely handle the DST by
removing the DST entirely). Due to `digest` yielding a `GenericArray`, yet
`FromUniformBytes` taking a `const usize`, the `ciphersuite` crate now defines
a `FromUniformBytes` trait taking an array (then implemented for all satisfiers
of `ff::FromUniformBytes`). In order to get the array type from the
`GenericArray`, the output of the hash, `digest` is updated to the `0.11`
release candidate which moves to `flexible-array` which solves that problem.
The existing, specific `hash_to_F` functions have been moved to `modular-frost`
as necessary.
`flexible-array` itself is patched to a fork due to
https://github.com/RustCrypto/hybrid-array/issues/131.
The prior workflow (now deleted) required manually specifying the packages to
check and only checked the package could compile under the stated MSRV. It
didn't verify it was actually the _minimum_ supported Rust version. The new
version finds the MSRV from scratch to check if the stated MSRV aligns.
Updates stated MSRVs accordingly.
Also removes many explicit dependencies from secq256k1 for their re-exports via
k256. Not directly relevant, just part of tidying up all the `toml`s.
This resolves the conflicts and gets the workspace `Cargo.toml`s to not be
invalid. It doesn't actually get clippy to pass again yet.
Does move `crypto/dkg/src/evrf` into a new `crypto/dkg/evrf` crate (which does
not yet compile).
Also removes the expectation Batches published via it are sent in an ordered
fashion. That won't be true if the signing protocols complete out-of-order (as
possible when we are signing them in parallel).
This isn't necessary. Because we just log the error, we never match off of it,
we don't need any structure beyond String (or now Debug, which still gives us
a way to print the error). This is for the ergonomics of not having to
constantly write `.map_err(|e| format!("{e:?}"))`.
coordinator/tributary was tributary-chain. This crate has been renamed
tributary-sdk and moved to coordinator/tributary-sdk.
coordinator/src/tributary was our instantion of a Tributary, the Transaction
type and scan task. This has been moved to coordinator/tributary.
The main reason for this was due to coordinator/main.rs becoming untidy. There
is now a collection of clean, independent APIs present in the codebase.
coordinator/main.rs is to compose them. Sometimes, these compositions are a bit
silly (reading from a channel just to forward the message to a distinct
channel). That's more than fine as the code is still readable and the value
from the cleanliness of the APIs composed far exceeds the nits from having
these odd compositions.
This breaks down a bit as we now define a global database, and have some APIs
interact with multiple other APIs.
coordinator/src/tributary was a self-contained, clean API. The recently added
task present in coordinator/tributary/mod.rs, which bound it to the rest of the
Coordinator, wasn't.
Now, coordinator/src is solely the API compositions, and all self-contained
APIs are their own crates.
Makes `Clone` calls significantly cheaper as now only the outer Arc is cloned
(the inner ones have been removed). Also wraps uses of Serai in an Arc as we
shouldn't actually need/want multiple caller connection pools.
