Error Handling Implementation for Cairo PLONK Verifier
Overview
This PR implements comprehensive error handling for the PLONK verifier in Cairo, transforming the codebase to use Result types and providing detailed error information for debugging and validation.
Key Changes
Error Handling System
Implemented Result-based error handling throughout verify.cairo
Added granular error checks for:
Curve point validation
Field element validation
Public input verification
Transcript operations
Pairing verification
Code Improvements
Transformed all verification functions to return Result types
Added detailed error messages for debugging
Implemented proper error propagation using the ? operator
Enhanced input validation with specific error cases
Error Types
InvalidCurvePoint: For curve point validation failures
InvalidFieldElement: For field element validation issues
InvalidPublicInput: For public input validation errors
TranscriptError: For transcript operation failures
PairingError: For pairing check failures
VerificationFailed: For general verification failures
Testing
Verified error propagation works correctly
Confirmed error messages are helpful for debugging
Tested all error paths in the verification process
