No, I am not including '\0'. I literially modified H(x) to prepend context (defaulted to blank byte string), with no lengths nor separators to x before hashing with SHA-512.. It does not handle empty context as special case, since <empty> is additive identity for string concatenation. > > [ben kaduk wrote:] > >> From where I am sitting, it seems like there are two options: does > >> the signing API include a context input?

H(x)=SHA512(context|x) does not cause behaviour like Ed25519(key,context|x) when applied.It causes behaviour that can't be expressed using the base Ed25519 primitive. -Ilari
