When constructing a curve using EC_GROUP_new (see <a href="../man3/EC_GROUP_new.html">EC_GROUP_new(3)</a>) an implementation method must be provided. The functions described here all return a const pointer to an <b>EC_METHOD</b> structure that can be passed to EC_GROUP_NEW. It is important that the correct implementation type for the form of curve selected is used.</p> <p>For F2^m curves there is only one implementation choice, i.e. EC_GF2_simple_method.</p> <p>For Fp curves the lowest common denominator implementation is the EC_GFp_simple_method implementation. All other implementations are based on this one. EC_GFp_mont_method builds on EC_GFp_simple_method but adds the use of montgomery multiplication (see <a href="../man3/BN_mod_mul_montgomery.html">BN_mod_mul_montgomery(3)</a>). EC_GFp_nist_method offers an implementation optimised for use with NIST recommended curves (NIST curves are available through EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name as described in <a href="../man3/EC_GROUP_new.html">EC_GROUP_new(3)</a>).</p> <p>The functions EC_GFp_nistp224_method, EC_GFp_nistp256_method and EC_GFp_nistp521_method offer 64 bit optimised implementations for the NIST P224, P256 and P521 curves respectively. Note, however, that these implementations are not available on all platforms.</p> <p>EC_METHOD_get_field_type identifies what type of field the EC_METHOD structure supports, which will be either F2^m or Fp. If the field type is Fp then the value <b>NID_X9_62_prime_field</b> is returned. If the field type is F2^m then the value <b>NID_X9_62_characteristic_two_field</b> is returned. These values are defined in the obj_mac.h header file.</p> <h1 id="RETURN-VALUES">RETURN VALUES</h1> <p>All EC_GFp* functions and EC_GF2m_simple_method always return a const pointer to an EC_METHOD structure.</p> <p>EC_METHOD_get_field_type returns an integer that identifies the type of field the EC_METHOD structure supports.</p> <h1 id="SEE-ALSO">SEE ALSO</h1> <p><a href="../man7/crypto.html">crypto(7)</a>, <a href="../man3/EC_GROUP_new.html">EC_GROUP_new(3)</a>, <a href="../man3/EC_GROUP_copy.html">EC_GROUP_copy(3)</a>, <a href="../man3/EC_POINT_new.html">EC_POINT_new(3)</a>, <a href="../man3/EC_POINT_add.html">EC_POINT_add(3)</a>, <a href="../man3/EC_KEY_new.html">EC_KEY_new(3)</a>, <a href="../man3/d2i_ECPKParameters.html">d2i_ECPKParameters(3)</a>, <a href="../man3/BN_mod_mul_montgomery.html">BN_mod_mul_montgomery(3)</a></p> <h1 id="COPYRIGHT">COPYRIGHT</h1> <p>Copyright 2013-2017 The OpenSSL Project Authors.
