They are used 31automatically when L<BN_mod_exp(3)> is called with suitable input, 32but they may be useful when several operations are to be performed 33using the same modulus. 34 35BN_MONT_CTX_new() allocates and initializes a B<BN_MONT_CTX> structure. 36 37BN_MONT_CTX_set() sets up the I<mont> structure from the modulus I<m> 38by precomputing its inverse and a value R. 39 40BN_MONT_CTX_copy() copies the B<BN_MONT_CTX> I<from> to I<to>. 41 42BN_MONT_CTX_free() frees the components of the B<BN_MONT_CTX>, and, if 43it was created by BN_MONT_CTX_new(), also the structure itself. 44If B<mont> is NULL, nothing is done. 45 46BN_mod_mul_montgomery() computes Mont(I<a>,I<b>):=I<a>*I<b>*R^-1 and places 47the result in I<r>. 48 49BN_from_montgomery() performs the Montgomery reduction I<r> = I<a>*R^-1. 50 51BN_to_montgomery() computes Mont(I<a>,R^2), i.e. I<a>*R. 52Note that I<a> must be nonnegative and smaller than the modulus. 53 54For all functions, I<ctx> is a previously allocated B<BN_CTX> used for 55temporary variables. 56 57=head1 RETURN VALUES 58 59BN_MONT_CTX_new() returns the newly allocated B<BN_MONT_CTX>, and NULL 60on error. 61 62BN_MONT_CTX_free() has no return value. 63 64For the other functions, 1 is returned for success, 0 on error. 65The error codes can be obtained by L<ERR_get_error(3)>. 66 67=head1 WARNINGS 68 69The inputs must be reduced modulo B<m>, otherwise the result will be 70outside the expected range. 71 72=head1 SEE ALSO 73 74L<ERR_get_error(3)>, L<BN_add(3)>, 75L<BN_CTX_new(3)> 76 77=head1 HISTORY 78 79BN_MONT_CTX_init() was removed in OpenSSL 1.1.0 80 81=head1 COPYRIGHT 82 83Copyright 2000-2020 The OpenSSL Project Authors.
