libsecp256k1-zkp
|
|
================
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
A fork of [libsecp256k1](https://github.com/bitcoin-core/secp256k1) with support for advanced and experimental features
|
|
|
|
Added features:
|
|
* Experimental module for ECDSA adaptor signatures.
|
|
* Experimental module for ECDSA sign-to-contract.
|
|
* Experimental module for Confidential Assets (Pedersen commitments, range proofs, and [surjection proofs](src/modules/surjection/surjection.md)).
|
|
* Experimental module for Bulletproofs++ range proofs.
|
|
* Experimental module for [address whitelisting](src/modules/whitelist/whitelist.md).
|
|
|
|
Experimental features are made available for testing and review by the community. The APIs of these features should not be considered stable.

Build steps
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
Obtaining and verifying
|
|
-----------------------
|
|
|
|
The git tag for each release (e.g. `v0.6.0`) is GPG-signed by one of the maintainers.
|
|
For a fully verified build of this project, it is recommended to obtain this repository
|
|
via git, obtain the GPG keys of the signing maintainer(s), and then verify the release
|
|
tag's signature using git.
|
|
|
|
This can be done with the following steps:
|
|
|
|
1. Obtain the GPG keys listed in [SECURITY.md](./SECURITY.md).
|
|
2. If possible, cross-reference these key IDs with another source controlled by its owner (e.g.
|
|
social media, personal website). This is to mitigate the unlikely case that incorrect
|
|
content is being presented by this repository.
|
|
3. Clone the repository:
|
|
```
|
|
git clone https://github.com/bitcoin-core/secp256k1
|
|
```
|
|
4. Check out the latest release tag, e.g.
|
|
```
|
|
git checkout v0.6.0
|
|
```
|
|
5. Use git to verify the GPG signature:
|
|
```
|
|
% git tag -v v0.6.0 | grep -C 3 'Good signature'
|
|
|
|
gpg: Signature made Mon 04 Nov 2024 12:14:44 PM EST
|
|
gpg: using RSA key 4BBB845A6F5A65A69DFAEC234861DBF262123605
|
|
gpg: Good signature from "Jonas Nick <jonas@n-ck.net>" [unknown]
|
|
gpg: aka "Jonas Nick <jonasd.nick@gmail.com>" [unknown]
|
|
gpg: WARNING: This key is not certified with a trusted signature!
|
|
gpg: There is no indication that the signature belongs to the owner.
|
|
Primary key fingerprint: 36C7 1A37 C9D9 88BD E825 08D9 B1A7 0E4F 8DCD 0366
|
|
Subkey fingerprint: 4BBB 845A 6F5A 65A6 9DFA EC23 4861 DBF2 6212 3605
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Building with Autotools
|
|
-----------------------
|
|
|
|
$ ./autogen.sh # Generate a ./configure script
|
|
$ ./configure # Generate a build system
|
|
$ make # Run the actual build process
|
|
$ make check # Run the test suite
|
|
$ sudo make install # Install the library into the system (optional)
|
|
|
|
To compile optional modules (such as Schnorr signatures), you need to run `./configure` with additional flags (such as `--enable-module-schnorrsig`). Run `./configure --help` to see the full list of available flags. For experimental modules, you will also need `--enable-experimental` as well as a flag for each individual module, e.g. `--enable-module-rangeproof`.
|
|
|
|
Building with CMake
|
|
-------------------
|
|
|
|
To maintain a pristine source tree, CMake encourages to perform an out-of-source build by using a separate dedicated build tree.
|
|
|
|
### Building on POSIX systems
|
|
|
|
$ cmake -B build # Generate a build system in subdirectory "build"
|
|
$ cmake --build build # Run the actual build process
|
|
$ ctest --test-dir build # Run the test suite
|
|
$ sudo cmake --install build # Install the library into the system (optional)
|
|
|
|
To compile optional modules (such as Schnorr signatures), you need to run `cmake` with additional flags (such as `-DSECP256K1_ENABLE_MODULE_SCHNORRSIG=ON`). Run `cmake -B build -LH` or `ccmake -B build` to see the full list of available flags.
|
|
|
|
### Cross compiling
|
|
|
|
To alleviate issues with cross compiling, preconfigured toolchain files are available in the `cmake` directory.
|
|
For example, to cross compile for Windows:
|
|
|
|
$ cmake -B build -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=cmake/x86_64-w64-mingw32.toolchain.cmake
|
|
|
|
To cross compile for Android with [NDK](https://developer.android.com/ndk/guides/cmake) (using NDK's toolchain file, and assuming the `ANDROID_NDK_ROOT` environment variable has been set):
|
|
|
|
$ cmake -B build -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE="${ANDROID_NDK_ROOT}/build/cmake/android.toolchain.cmake" -DANDROID_ABI=arm64-v8a -DANDROID_PLATFORM=28
|
|
|
|
### Building on Windows
|
|
|
|
The following example assumes Visual Studio 2022. Using clang-cl is recommended.
|
|
|
|
In "Developer Command Prompt for VS 2022":
|
|
|
|
>cmake -B build -T ClangCL
|
|
>cmake --build build --config RelWithDebInfo
|
|
|
|
Usage examples
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
Usage examples can be found in the [examples](examples) directory. To compile them you need to configure with `--enable-examples`.
|
|
* [ECDSA example](examples/ecdsa.c)
|
|
* [Schnorr signatures example](examples/schnorr.c)
|
|
* [Deriving a shared secret (ECDH) example](examples/ecdh.c)
|
|
* [ElligatorSwift key exchange example](examples/ellswift.c)
|
|
* [MuSig2 Schnorr multi-signatures example](examples/musig.c)
|
|
|
|
To compile the examples, make sure the corresponding modules are enabled.
|
|
|
|
Benchmark
|
|
------------
|
|
If configured with `--enable-benchmark` (which is the default), binaries for benchmarking the libsecp256k1-zkp functions will be present in the root directory after the build.
|
|
|
|
To print the benchmark result to the command line:
|
|
|
|
$ ./bench_name
|
|
|
|
To create a CSV file for the benchmark result :
|
|
|
|
$ ./bench_name | sed '2d;s/ \{1,\}//g' > bench_name.csv
|
|
