* This is useful in non-threaded environments if you want to avoid blocking
* for too long on ECC (and, hence, X.509 or SSL/TLS) operations.
*
* Uncomment this macro to enable restartable ECC computations.
* This option:
* - Adds xxx_restartable() variants of existing operations in the
* following modules, with corresponding restart context types:
* - ECP (for Short Weierstrass curves only): scalar multiplication (mul),
* linear combination (muladd);
* - ECDSA: signature generation & verification;
* - PK: signature generation & verification;
* - X509: certificate chain verification.
* - Adds mbedtls_ecdh_enable_restart() in the ECDH module.
* - Changes the behaviour of TLS 1.2 clients (not servers) when using the
* ECDHE-ECDSA key exchange (not other key exchanges) to make all ECC
* computations restartable:
* - ECDH operations from the key exchange, only for Short Weierstass
* curves;
* - verification of the server's key exchange signature;
* - verification of the server's certificate chain;
* - generation of the client's signature if client authentication is used,
* with an ECC key/certificate.
*
* \note In the cases above, the usual SSL/TLS functions, such as
* mbedtls_ssl_handshake(), can now return
* MBEDTLS_ERR_SSL_CRYPTO_IN_PROGRESS.
*
* \note This option only works with the default software implementation of
* elliptic curve functionality. It is incompatible with
* MBEDTLS_ECP_ALT, MBEDTLS_ECDH_XXX_ALT, MBEDTLS_ECDSA_XXX_ALT
* and MBEDTLS_ECDH_LEGACY_CONTEXT.
* MBEDTLS_ECP_ALT, MBEDTLS_ECDH_XXX_ALT, MBEDTLS_ECDSA_XXX_ALT,
* MBEDTLS_ECDH_LEGACY_CONTEXT, and MBEDTLS_USE_PSA_CRYPTO.
*
* Requires: MBEDTLS_ECP_C
*
* Uncomment this macro to enable restartable ECC computations.
