GFpECTstPointInSubgroup
Checks if a point belongs to a specified subgroup.
Syntax
IppStatus ippsGFpECTstPointInGroup(const IppsGFpECPoint* pP, IppECResult* pResult, IppsGFpECState* pEC, Ipp8u* pScratchBuffer);
Include Files
ippcp.h
Parameters
pP |
Pointer to the IppsGFpECPoint context. |
pResult |
Pointer to the result received upon the check that the point belongs to the elliptic curve over the finite field. |
pEC |
Pointer to the context of the elliptic curve. |
pScratchBuffer |
Pointer to the scratch buffer; can be NULL. |
Description
This function checks whether a point belongs to the pre-defined subgroup of the elliptic curve defined over the finite field. The result of the testing is returned in pResult and may have the following values:
ippECValid |
The point is in the subgroup of the curve. |
ippECPointOutOfGroup |
The point is out of the subgroup. |
If the pointer to the scratch buffer is NULL, the function uses a short internal buffer for computations.
Return Values
ippStsNoErr |
Indicates no error. Any other value indicates an error or warning. |
ippStsNullPtrErr |
Indicates an error condition if any of the pointers pP, pResult, and pEC is NULL. |
ippStsContextMatchErr |
Indicates an error condition if any of the specified contexts does not match the operation. |
ippStsOutOfRangeErr |
Indicates an error condition if the point does not belong to the finite field over which the elliptic curve is initialized. |
