27It is used as a starting point for the following hand optimized assembly files:
28
29- usr/src/common/bignum/sun4u/mont_mulf_v8plus.s
30 This file is used in the 32-bit pkcs11_softtoken library.
31
32- usr/src/common/bignum/sun4u/mont_mulf_v9.s
33 This file is used in the 64-bit pkcs11_softtoken library.
34
35- usr/src/common/bignum/sun4u/mont_mulf_kernel_v9.s
36 This file is used in the kernel RSA module.
37
38We keep the .c file around for future reference.

40See file bignumimpl.c for information about these preprocessor symbols:
41	USE_FLOATING_POINT, PSR_MUL, HWCAP, UMUL64
42UMUL64 is set in bignum.h based on architecture.
43The other symbols are set in Makefiles, as appropriate.
