Subject: [PATCH v3 15/15] crypto: dh - calculate Q from P for the full public key verification
Date:   Wed,  2 Feb 2022 11:40:12 +0100
Message-Id: <20220202104012.4193-16-nstange@suse.de>
In-Reply-To: <20220202104012.4193-1-nstange@suse.de>

As the ->q in struct dh_ctx gets never set anywhere, the code in
dh_is_pubkey_valid() for doing the full public key validation in accordance
to SP800-56Arev3 is effectively dead.

However, for safe-prime groups Q = (P - 1)/2 by definition and
as the safe-prime groups are the only possible groups in FIPS mode (via
those ffdheXYZ() templates), this enables dh_is_pubkey_valid() to calculate
Q on the fly for these.
Implement this.

With this change, the last code accessing struct dh_ctx's ->q is now gone.
Remove this member from struct dh_ctx.
