* Deprecated `EdwardsPoint::hash_from_bytes` and renamed to
`EdwardsPoint::nonspec_map_to_curve`
* Added KAT test vectors for `RistrettoPoint::from_uniform_bytes`
The `RUSTFLAGS` were getting applied to build scripts, which caused them
to crash with SIGILL.
According to this issue, RUSTFLAGS won't be applied to build scripts
when cross-compiling by passing the `--target` attribute:
https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo/issues/4423
This attempts to work around the problem by explicitly passing:
--target x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
As proposed in #414, this commit changes the backend selection approach,
introspecting `target_pointer_width` to select `u32_backend` vs
`u64_backend` (or `fiat_u32_backend`/`fiat_u64_backend` if the
`fiat_backend` feature is enabled).
This helps eliminate the use of non-additive features, and also the
rather confusing errors that happen if multiple backends are selected
(i.e. thousands of lines of rustc errors).
The selection logic checks if `target_pointer_width = "64"` and uses the
64-bit backend, or falls back to the 32-bit backend otherwise. This
means the crate will always have a valid backend regardless of the
pointer width, although there may be odd edge cases for exotic platforms
which would optimally use the 64-bit backend but have a non-"64" target
pointer width for whatever reason. We can handle those cases as they
come up.
As proposed in #426 this commit changes to include README.md into
the crate documentation instead of maintaining a carbon copy in
the code.
This helps to keep the documentation in a single place without
duplicating the documentation in multiple places leading to less
errors and out of date documentation.
Did a full formatting pass on the crate. Read the comments in the referenced for
steps to verify that the PR made no semantic changes to the code. Huge credit
goes to @robjtede for this work.
