.Sh DESCRIPTION
The
.Fn crypto_ed25519_sign
and
.Fn crypto_ed25519_check
functions provide Ed25519 public key signatures and verification
with SHA-512 as the underlying hash function;
they are interoperable with other Ed25519 implementations.
If you have no interoperability requirements, prefer
.Xr crypto_sign 3monocypher .
.Pp
The arguments and security considerations are the same as those
described in
.Xr crypto_sign 3monocypher .
.Pp
An incremental interface is available; see
.Xr crypto_ed25519_sign_init_first_pass 3monocypher .
.Sh RETURN VALUES
.Fn crypto_ed25519_public_key
and
.Fn crypto_ed25519_sign
return nothing.
.Pp
.Fn crypto_ed25519_check
returns 0 for legitimate messages and -1 for forgeries.
.Sh SEE ALSO
.Xr crypto_check 3monocypher ,
.Xr crypto_key_exchange 3monocypher ,
.Xr crypto_lock 3monocypher ,
.Xr crypto_sha512 3monocypher ,
.Xr intro 3monocypher
.Sh STANDARDS
These functions implement Ed25519 as described in RFC 8032.
.Sh HISTORY
The
.Fn crypto_ed25519_sign ,
.Fn crypto_ed25519_check ,
and
.Fn crypto_ed25519_public_key
functions appeared in Monocypher 3.0.0.
They replace recompilation of Monocypher with the
.Dv ED25519_SHA512
preprocessor definition.
