=head1 DESCRIPTION |
|
|
|
BN_add() adds I<a> and I<b> and places the result in I<r> (C<r=a+b>). |
|
I<r> may be the same B<BIGNUM> as I<a> or I<b>. |
|
|
|
BN_sub() subtracts I<b> from I<a> and places the result in I<r> (C<r=a-b>). |
|
|
|
BN_mul() multiplies I<a> and I<b> and places the result in I<r> (C<r=a*b>). |
|
I<r> may be the same B<BIGNUM> as I<a> or I<b>. |
|
For multiplication by powers of 2, use L<BN_lshift(3)|BN_lshift(3)>. |
|
|
|
BN_sqr() takes the square of I<a> and places the result in I<r> |
|
(C<r=a^2>). I<r> and I<a> may be the same B<BIGNUM>. |
|
This function is faster than BN_mul(r,a,a). |
|
|
|
BN_div() divides I<a> by I<d> and places the result in I<dv> and the |
|
remainder in I<rem> (C<dv=a/d, rem=a%d>). Either of I<dv> and I<rem> may |
|
be B<NULL>, in which case the respective value is not returned. |
|
The result is rounded towards zero; thus if I<a> is negative, the |
|
remainder will be zero or negative. |
|
For division by powers of 2, use BN_rshift(3). |
|
|
|
BN_mod() corresponds to BN_div() with I<dv> set to B<NULL>. |
|
|
|
BN_nnmod() reduces I<a> modulo I<m> and places the non-negative |
|
remainder in I<r>. |
|
|
|
BN_mod_add() adds I<a> to I<b> modulo I<m> and places the non-negative |
|
result in I<r>. |
|
|
|
BN_mod_sub() subtracts I<b> from I<a> modulo I<m> and places the |
|
non-negative result in I<r>. |
|
|
|
BN_mod_mul() multiplies I<a> by I<b> and finds the non-negative |
|
remainder respective to modulus I<m> (C<r=(a*b) mod m>). I<r> may be |
|
the same B<BIGNUM> as I<a> or I<b>. For more efficient algorithms for |
|
repeated computations using the same modulus, see |
|
L<BN_mod_mul_montgomery(3)|BN_mod_mul_montgomery(3)> and |
|
L<BN_mod_mul_reciprocal(3)|BN_mod_mul_reciprocal(3)>. |
|
|
|
BN_mod_sqr() takes the square of I<a> modulo B<m> and places the |
|
result in I<r>. |
|
|
|
BN_exp() raises I<a> to the I<p>-th power and places the result in I<r> |
|
(C<r=a^p>). This function is faster than repeated applications of |
|
BN_mul(). |
|
|
|
BN_mod_exp() computes I<a> to the I<p>-th power modulo I<m> (C<r=a^p % |
|
m>). This function uses less time and space than BN_exp(). |
|
|
|
BN_gcd() computes the greatest common divisor of I<a> and I<b> and |
|
places the result in I<r>. I<r> may be the same B<BIGNUM> as I<a> or |
|
I<b>. |
|
|
|
For all functions, I<ctx> is a previously allocated B<BN_CTX> used for |
|
temporary variables; see L<BN_CTX_new(3)|BN_CTX_new(3)>. |
|
|
|
Unless noted otherwise, the result B<BIGNUM> must be different from |
|
the arguments. |
|
|
|
=head1 RETURN VALUES |
|
|
|
For all functions, 1 is returned for success, 0 on error. The return |
|
value should always be checked (e.g., C<if (!BN_add(r,a,b)) goto err;>). |
|
The error codes can be obtained by L<ERR_get_error(3)|ERR_get_error(3)>. |

=head1 HISTORY |
|
|
|
BN_add(), BN_sub(), BN_sqr(), BN_div(), BN_mod(), BN_mod_mul(), |
|
BN_mod_exp() and BN_gcd() are available in all versions of SSLeay and |
|
OpenSSL. The I<ctx> argument to BN_mul() was added in SSLeay |
|
0.9.1b. BN_exp() appeared in SSLeay 0.9.0. |
|
BN_nnmod(), BN_mod_add(), BN_mod_sub(), and BN_mod_sqr() were added in |
|
OpenSSL 0.9.7. |
