Found by the IAR compiler.
While at it, make 'diff' non-volatile in uECC_check_curve_integrity(), as
there is no good reason to make it volatile, and making it volatile only
increases the code size and the burden of defining access ordering.
This commit first changes the return convention of EccPoint_mult_safer() so
that it properly reports when faults are detected. Then all functions that
call it need to be changed to (1) follow the same return convention and (2)
properly propagate UECC_FAULT_DETECTED when it occurs.
Here's the reverse call graph from EccPoint_mult_safer() to the rest of the
library (where return values are translated to the MBEDTLS_ERR_ space) and test
functions (where expected return values are asserted explicitly).

Note: in uECC_sign_with_k() a test for uECC_vli_isZero(p) is suppressed
because it is redundant with a more thorough test (point validity) done at the
end of EccPoint_mult_safer(). This redundancy was introduced in a previous
commit but not noticed earlier.
We don't really need a secure hash for that, something like CRC32 would
probably be enough - but we have SHA-256 handy, not CRC32, so use that for the
sake of simplicity.
By semi-internal I mean functions that are only public because they're used in
more than once compilation unit in the library (for example in ecc.c and
ecc_dsa.c) but should not really be part of the public-facing API.
Same motivation as for the other parameters. This is the last one, making the
curve structure empty, so it's left with a dummy parameter for legal reasons.
This commit removes from the TinyCrypt header and source code files, the
configuration condition on MBEDTLS_USE_TINYCRYPT to include the file
contents.
This is to allow use of the library by the Factory Tool without enabling
MBEDTLS_USE_TINYCRYPT, and also removes a modification we've made to make the
code closer to the upstream TinyCrypt making it easier to maintain.
Validating the input is always a good idea. Validating the output protects
against some fault injections that would make the result invalid.
Note: valid_point() implies that the point is not zero.
Adding validation to mult_safer() makes it redundant in
compute_shared_secret().
This will make easier to add future counter-measures in a single place.
In practice this change means that:
- compute_public_key() now uses projective coordinate randomisation, which it
should as this is a protection against Template Attacks for example.
- mult_safer() now checks that the result is not the point at infinity, which
it can as the result is indeed never expected to be that
Previously it was returning 0 or 1, so flipping a single bit in the return
value reversed its meaning. Now it's returning the diff itself.
This is safe because in the two places it's used (signature verification and
point validation), invalid values will have a large number of bits differing
from the expected value, so diff will have a large Hamming weight.
An alternative would be to return for example -!(diff == 0), but the
comparison itself is prone to attacks (glitching the appropriate flag in the
CPU flags register, or the conditional branch if the comparison uses one). So
we'd need to protect the comparison, and it's simpler to just skip it and
return diff itself.
This avoids the need for each calling site to manually regularize the scalar
and randomize coordinates, which makes for simpler safe use and saves 50 bytes
of code size in the library.
