Review Change Stack

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The PR adds BLS-IES encryption and decryption for Chia and IETF schemes, AES-256-CBC helpers, encoded IES byte-bag types, codec feature gating, new codec macros, dependency feature updates, tests, corpus support, and benchmarks.

Changes

Codec macros and type feature gates

Layer / File(s) Summary
Codec macros and enum mappings
pkgs/types/Cargo.toml, pkgs/types/src/lib.rs, pkgs/types/src/macros.rs
The types crate adds codec feature gates, cfg_codec!, impl_enum!, derive_bytes!, and derive_sbytes!. enum_map! now emits inherent conversion methods and a conditional NumCodec implementation.
Codec helper relocation and cleanup
pkgs/types/src/secret.rs
qtypestr and derive_sbytes! move out of secret.rs. Their tests and imports are updated.

Codec dependency and compilation wiring

Layer / File(s) Summary
Workspace feature wiring
pkgs/*/Cargo.toml
Packages enable dash-types/codec and dash-pkc/codec where required. pkc makes several dependencies optional and adds AES support.
BLS codec gates
pkgs/pkc/src/bls/*.rs, pkgs/pkc/src/lib.rs
Codec imports, derives, serialization implementations, modules, and tests are compiled only when codec is enabled.
Import cleanup
pkgs/p2p_core/src/msg/mn_list.rs, pkgs/primitives/src/**/*, pkgs/script/src/**/*
Unused NumCodec imports are removed.

IES byte-bag contracts

Layer / File(s) Summary
Encoded IES types
pkgs/pkc/src/bls/ies_bytes.rs, pkgs/pkc/src/bls/error.rs, pkgs/pkc/src/bls/mod.rs
BlsIesBlobBytes and BlsIesMultiBytes define encoded single- and multi-recipient messages with validation, hashing, serde conversion, bounds checks, and public exports.
Encoding validation
pkgs/pkc/src/bls/ies_bytes.rs
Tests cover wire layout, codec round-trips, trailing input, oversized lengths, corpus vectors, validation, and serde behavior.

IES encryption and decryption flow

Layer / File(s) Summary
AES-CBC implementation
pkgs/pkc/src/aes_cbc.rs
The crate adds unpadded AES-256-CBC encryption and decryption for block-aligned data. Decryption uses zeroizing buffers.
BLS-IES scheme operations
pkgs/pkc/src/bls/scheme_ops.rs, pkgs/pkc/src/bls/ies_ops.rs, pkgs/pkc/src/bls/secret_ops.rs
BLS schemes derive shared-key bytes, AES keys, and chained IVs. Public and secret keys expose single- and multi-recipient IES operations with validation errors and byte-type conversions.
Reference and behavior tests
pkgs/pkc/src/bls/ies_ops.rs
Tests validate reference vectors, key derivation, round-trips, invalid lengths, index bounds, IV chaining, recipient counts, codec conversions, and serde conversions.

IES corpus and performance coverage

Layer / File(s) Summary
Corpus value access
pkgs/dev/src/corpus.rs
Corpus::value reads and deserializes a named section as one typed value.
IES benchmarks
pkgs/pkc/bench/bls.rs
Divan benchmarks cover single-recipient encryption and decryption at several block sizes and multi-recipient encryption at several recipient counts.

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to f568d

BLS-IES currently accepts an empty plaintext during encryption but rejects the resulting ciphertext during validation, so empty-message use may fail. The PR is otherwise mergeable with owner awareness and follow-up to align the contract and add coverage.

354-548: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win

Add local tests for derive_bytes! and derive_sbytes!.

The test module covers enum_map! and qtypestr only. These two macros carry the security-relevant contracts of the crate: hex order (fwd versus rev), the serde round trip, and the redacting Debug/Display for secrets. A test type per macro in mod tests pins those contracts at the definition site.

Use Serializer::collect_str instead of allocating an intermediate String.

This lets serializers such as serde_json write Display output directly while preserving the default behavior for other serializers.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Keep empty-payload validity consistent.

BlsPublicKey::ies_encrypt accepts empty plaintext in pkgs/pkc/src/bls/ies_ops.rs Lines 621-626. It produces a blob with empty data. This check method then rejects the converted byte bag as InvalidCiphertextLength.

Define one contract for empty payloads. Either reject empty plaintext before encryption or accept empty data here. Update the related tests.
