DESCRIPTION
- -
- - -
- - Elgamal is a public key encryption and signature algorithm. The - owner of a key publishes the public part of the key:
- -
- - struct EGpub
- {
- -
- - mpint       *p;    // modulus
- mpint       *alpha;     // generator
- mpint       *key;       // (encryption key) alpha**secret mod p
- -
- };
- -
- This part can be used for encrypting data (with egencrypt) to - be sent to the owner. The owner decrypts (with egdecrypt) using - his private key:
- -
- - struct EGpriv
- {
- -
- - EGpub       pub;
- mpint       *secret; // (decryption key)
- -
- };
- -
- - -
- Keys are generated using eggen. Eggen takes both bit length of - the modulus and the number of repetitions of the Miller-Rabin - primality test to run. If the latter is 0, it does the default - number of rounds. Egprivtopub returns a newly allocated copy of - the public key corresponding to the private key. -
- - The routines egpuballoc, egpubfree, egprivalloc, and egprivfree - are provided to manage key storage. -
- - Egsign signs message m using a private key k yielding a
- -
- - struct EGsig
- {
- -
- - mpint       *r, *s;
- -
- };
- -
- Egverify returns 0 if the signature is valid and –1 if not. -
- - The routines egsigalloc and egsigfree are provided to manage signature - storage.
