[PATCH v3 02/10] crypto: ecdsa - Adjust tests on length of key parameters

From: Stefan Berger
Date: Fri Feb 23 2024 - 15:42:36 EST


In preparation for support of NIST P521, adjust the basic tests on the
length of the provided key parameters to only ensure that the length of the
x plus y coordinates parameter array is not an odd number and that each
coordinate fits into an array of 'ndigits' digits. Mathematical tests on
the key's parameters are then done in ecc_is_pubkey_valid_full rejecting
invalid keys.

The change is necessary since NIST P521 keys do not have keys with
coordinates that each fully require 'full' digits (= u64), unlike
NIST P192/256/384 that all require multiple 'full' digits.
