hello, I'm struggling with monerod ;) What is the syntax of this:--tx-proxy tor,127.0.0.1:9050,10 in .conf?

Reminder that there is a research meeting in #monero-research-lab today at 17:00 UTC (an hour from now)

selsta I will be out for the weekend starting tomorrow afternoon. Are we close to tag?
-
selsta
yes, theoretically we can tag today, do we have someone backup in case we have to retag tomorrow?
-
luigi1111w
I can tag tomorrow too, just not after about 24 hours from now
-
selsta
moneromooo: can you PR the remaining patch?
-
moneromooo
sure
-
moneromooo
selsta: done, I also added a locking patch which I think fixes the 6555 crash but I did not get confirmation yet.
-
selsta
thanks
-
selsta
now we need a review then luigi can tag :D
-
selsta
both PRs look good but would prefer if someone else also reviews

Hey guys, I have a question: I am looking at crypto_ops::generate_key_derivation and I see this line: ge_mul8(&point3, &point2);
-
tazmanian
I am cross checking this with Zero To Monero but this operation is not mentioned
-
tazmanian
It all works fine, but why do we do this extra operation when doing the key derivation?
-
tazmanian
I am currently looking to build an OpenCL blockchain tx scanner for Monero (will be open sourced)
-
tazmanian
no guarantees I will ever finish though :-)
-
selsta
you might also want to ask in #monero-research-lab if no one answers here
-
tazmanian
Yep, it is not a critical thing, it's mostly out of curiosity
-
sarang
mul8 operations push you into the prime curve subgroup
-
tazmanian
aren't the points already in the prime curve subgroup?
-
tazmanian
or is this a precaution against points possibly being out of the prime subgroup?
-
sarang
Yeah, tx points could be in arbitrary subgroups
-
sarang
If specified externally

tazmanian: page 37 footnote 7
-
UkoeHB_
in the 2nd ed
-
tazmanian
hah
-
tazmanian
good point, I totally missed the footnote, I was sure I checked thoroughly :-)
-
UkoeHB_
yeah there are a lot of footnotes lol
-
sarang
It's one of those things that matters in some protocols, not in others, but is a requirement for proofs
-
sarang
UkoeHB_: aren't composite-order curves delightful :D
-
UkoeHB_
idk what bernstein was thinking
-
tazmanian
performance?
-
moneromooo
Probably the same thing Newton was thinking when he stopped at Newtionian mechanics.

Not enough giants before.
