2017-01-20 Thread Nitin Kumbhar
Hello, This patch series adds support for Elliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm (ECDSA). To reuse existing ECC functionality, which is added as part of ECDH, it separates out ECC and ECDH so that only ECC functionality is available for ECDSA even when ECDH is in a disabled state. Patch #1
