NAME
BN_mod_exp_mont, BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime,
BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime_x2 - Montgomery exponentiation
SYNOPSIS
#include <openssl/bn.h>
int BN_mod_exp_mont(BIGNUM *rr, const BIGNUM *a, const BIGNUM *p,
const BIGNUM *m, BN_CTX *ctx, BN_MONT_CTX *in_mont);
int BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime(BIGNUM *rr, const BIGNUM *a, const BIGNUM *p,
const BIGNUM *m, BN_CTX *ctx,
BN_MONT_CTX *in_mont);
int BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime_x2(BIGNUM *rr1, const BIGNUM *a1,
const BIGNUM *p1, const BIGNUM *m1,
BN_MONT_CTX *in_mont1, BIGNUM *rr2,
const BIGNUM *a2, const BIGNUM *p2,
const BIGNUM *m2, BN_MONT_CTX *in_mont2,
BN_CTX *ctx);
DESCRIPTION
BN_mod_exp_mont() computes a to the p-th power modulo m ("rr=a^p % m")
using Montgomery multiplication. in_mont is a Montgomery context and
can be NULL. In the case in_mont is NULL, it will be initialized within
the function, so you can save time on initialization if you provide it
in advance.
BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime() computes a to the p-th power modulo m
("rr=a^p % m") using Montgomery multiplication. It is a variant of
BN_mod_exp_mont(3) that uses fixed windows and the special
precomputation memory layout to limit data-dependency to a minimum to
protect secret exponents. It is called automatically when
BN_mod_exp_mont(3) is called with parameters a, p, m, any of which have
BN_FLG_CONSTTIME flag.
BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime_x2() computes two independent exponentiations
a1 to the p1-th power modulo m1 ("rr1=a1^p1 % m1") and a2 to the p2-th
power modulo m2 ("rr2=a2^p2 % m2") using Montgomery multiplication. For
some fixed and equal modulus sizes m1 and m2 it uses optimizations that
allow to speedup two exponentiations. In all other cases the function
reduces to two calls of BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime(3).
RETURN VALUES
For all functions 1 is returned for success, 0 on error. The error
codes can be obtained by ERR_get_error(3).
