.SH DESCRIPTION
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
These functions implement Montgomery multiplication. They are used
automatically when \fBBN_mod_exp\fR\|(3) is called with suitable input,
but they may be useful when several operations are to be performed
using the same modulus.
.PP
\&\fBBN_MONT_CTX_new()\fR allocates and initializes a \fBBN_MONT_CTX\fR structure.
.PP
\&\fBBN_MONT_CTX_set()\fR sets up the \fImont\fR structure from the modulus \fIm\fR
by precomputing its inverse and a value R.
.PP
\&\fBBN_MONT_CTX_copy()\fR copies the \fBBN_MONT_CTX\fR \fIfrom\fR to \fIto\fR.
.PP
\&\fBBN_MONT_CTX_free()\fR frees the components of the \fBBN_MONT_CTX\fR, and, if
it was created by \fBBN_MONT_CTX_new()\fR, also the structure itself.
If \fBmont\fR is NULL, nothing is done.
.PP
\&\fBBN_mod_mul_montgomery()\fR computes Mont(\fIa\fR,\fIb\fR):=\fIa\fR*\fIb\fR*R^\-1 and places
the result in \fIr\fR.
.PP
\&\fBBN_from_montgomery()\fR performs the Montgomery reduction \fIr\fR = \fIa\fR*R^\-1.
.PP
\&\fBBN_to_montgomery()\fR computes Mont(\fIa\fR,R^2), i.e. \fIa\fR*R.
Note that \fIa\fR must be nonnegative and smaller than the modulus.
.PP
For all functions, \fIctx\fR is a previously allocated \fBBN_CTX\fR used for
temporary variables.
.SH "RETURN VALUES"
.IX Header "RETURN VALUES"
\&\fBBN_MONT_CTX_new()\fR returns the newly allocated \fBBN_MONT_CTX\fR, and NULL
on error.
.PP
\&\fBBN_MONT_CTX_free()\fR has no return value.
.PP
For the other functions, 1 is returned for success, 0 on error.
The error codes can be obtained by \fBERR_get_error\fR\|(3).
.SH WARNINGS
.IX Header "WARNINGS"
The inputs must be reduced modulo \fBm\fR, otherwise the result will be
outside the expected range.
