BN_mod_mul_reciprocal, BN_div_recp, BN_RECP_CTX_new, BN_RECP_CTX_free, BN_RECP_CTX_set - modular

Description

BN_mod_mul_reciprocal() can be used to perform an efficient BN_mod_mul(3) operation when the operation
       will be performed repeatedly with the same modulus. It computes r=(a*b)%m using recp=1/m, which is set as
       described below.  ctx is a previously allocated BN_CTX used for temporary variables.

       BN_RECP_CTX_new() allocates and initializes a BN_RECP structure.

       BN_RECP_CTX_free() frees the components of the BN_RECP, and, if it was created by BN_RECP_CTX_new(), also
       the structure itself.  If recp is NULL, nothing is done.

       BN_RECP_CTX_set() stores m in recp and sets it up for computing 1/m and shifting it left by
       BN_num_bits(m)+1 to make it an integer. The result and the number of bits it was shifted left will later
       be stored in recp.

       BN_div_recp() divides a by m using recp. It places the quotient in dv and the remainder in rem.

       The BN_RECP_CTX structure cannot be shared between threads.

History

BN_RECP_CTX_init() was removed in OpenSSL 1.1.0

Name

       BN_mod_mul_reciprocal, BN_div_recp, BN_RECP_CTX_new, BN_RECP_CTX_free, BN_RECP_CTX_set - modular
       multiplication using reciprocal

Return Values

BN_RECP_CTX_new() returns the newly allocated BN_RECP_CTX, and NULL on error.

       BN_RECP_CTX_free() has no return value.

       For the other functions, 1 is returned for success, 0 on error.  The error codes can be obtained by
       ERR_get_error(3).
