Functions

func Ecrecover

func Ecrecover(header *types.Header, sigcache *lru.ARCCache) (common.Address, error)

Ecrecover extracts the Ethereum account address from a signed header.

func SigHash

func SigHash(header *types.Header) (hash common.Hash)

SigHash returns the hash which is used as input for the proof-of-authority signing. It is the hash of the entire header apart from the 65 byte signature contained at the end of the extra data.

Note, the method requires the extra data to be at least 65 bytes, otherwise it panics. This is done to avoid accidentally using both forms (signature present or not), which could be abused to produce different hashes for the same header.
