Expand description

Errors which may occur while processing signatures and keypairs.

All these errors represent a failed signature when they occur in the context of verifying a sitgnature, including in deserializaing for verification. We expose the distinction among them primarily for debugging purposes.

This error may arise due to:

  • Being given bytes with a length different to what was expected.

  • A problem decompressing r, a curve point, in the Signature, or the curve point for a PublicKey.

  • A problem with the format of s, a scalar, in the Signature. This is only raised if the high-bit of the scalar was set. (Scalars must only be constructed from 255-bit integers.)

  • Multi-signature protocol errors

Variants§

§

EquationFalse

A signature verification equation failed.

We emphasise that all variants represent a failed signature, not only this one.

§

PointDecompressionError

Invalid point provided, usually to verify methods.

§

ScalarFormatError

Invalid scalar provided, usually to Signature::from_bytes.

§

BytesLengthError

Fields

§name: &'static str

Identifies the type returning the error

§description: &'static str

Describes the type returning the error

§length: usize

Length expected by the constructor in bytes

An error in the length of bytes handed to a constructor.

To use this, pass a string specifying the name of the type which is returning the error, and the length in bytes which its constructor expects.

§

NotMarkedSchnorrkel

Signature not marked as schnorrkel, maybe try ed25519 instead.

§

MuSigAbsent

Fields

§musig_stage: MultiSignatureStage

Identifies the multi-signature protocol stage during which the error occured.

There is no record of the preceeding multi-signautre protocol stage for the specified public key.

§

MuSigInconsistent

Fields

§musig_stage: MultiSignatureStage

Identifies the multi-signature protocol stage during which the error occured.

§duplicate: bool

Set true if the stage was reached correctly once but this duplicate disagrees.

For this public key, there are either conflicting records for the preceeding multi-signautre protocol stage or else duplicate duplicate records for the current stage.
