πŸ’… rte_crypto_ecpm_op_param πŸ’…

okay so bestie, welcome to the DPDK Library Functions Manual β€” yes that's the manual name, we're fancy here β€” and today's main character is rte_crypto_ecpm_op_param, aka the struct that makes elliptic-curve point multiplication actually happen. no cap, it's lowkey iconic. πŸ¦‹


✨ NAME ✨

rte_crypto_ecpm_op_param β€” the struct for an EC point multiplication operation param. it's giving "tiny struct, huge responsibilities". πŸ’…


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

#include <rte_crypto_asym.h>

πŸŽ€ Data Fields

struct rte_crypto_ec_point p
struct rte_crypto_ec_point r
rte_crypto_param scalar

like, three fields. that's the whole vibe. but each one is doing its job fr fr. 🫢


✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

so basically: this is the Structure for EC point multiplication operation param. that's it, that's the tea. it bundles up everything you need to say "hey, take this point and multiply it by this scalar and gimme the result". 🧚

for the record, it's defined at line 660 of file rte_crypto_asym.h. bookmark that, bestie. πŸ“Œ

🌸 FIELD DOCUMENTATION 🌸

πŸ’– struct rte_crypto_ec_point p

the x and y coordinates of input point β€” this is your starting point, the one being fed into the math. the main character of the operation, honestly. ✨

definition at line 661 of file rte_crypto_asym.h.

πŸ’– struct rte_crypto_ec_point r

the x and y coordinates of resultant point β€” this is where the answer lands after all the multiplying goes down. the glow-up destination. πŸ‘‘

definition at line 664 of file rte_crypto_asym.h.

πŸ’– rte_crypto_param scalar

the Scalar to multiply the input point β€” like the number you're multiplying by. the multiplier. the whole reason p doesn't just sit there doing nothing. πŸ”₯

and that's a wrap, bestie! 🌈 this page came to you from DPDK Version 26.03.0 and the rte_crypto_ecpm_op_param(3) page in the manual β€” go forth, multiply those points, and slay. πŸ’œπŸŽ€
