167 .IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
168 \&\fIBN_mod_mul_reciprocal()\fR can be used to perform an efficient
169 \&\fIBN_mod_mul\fR\|(3) operation when the operation will be performed
170 repeatedly with the same modulus. It computes \fBr\fR=(\fBa\fR*\fBb\fR)%\fBm\fR
171 using \fBrecp\fR=1/\fBm\fR, which is set as described below. \fBctx\fR is a
172 previously allocated \fB\s-1BN_CTX\s0\fR used for temporary variables.
174 \&\fIBN_RECP_CTX_new()\fR allocates and initializes a \fB\s-1BN_RECP\s0\fR structure.
175 \&\fIBN_RECP_CTX_init()\fR initializes an existing uninitialized \fB\s-1BN_RECP\s0\fR.
177 \&\fIBN_RECP_CTX_free()\fR frees the components of the \fB\s-1BN_RECP\s0\fR, and, if it
178 was created by \fIBN_RECP_CTX_new()\fR, also the structure itself.
180 \&\fIBN_RECP_CTX_set()\fR stores \fBm\fR in \fBrecp\fR and sets it up for computing
181 1/\fBm\fR and shifting it left by BN_num_bits(\fBm\fR)+1 to make it an
182 integer. The result and the number of bits it was shifted left will
183 later be stored in \fBrecp\fR.
185 \&\fIBN_div_recp()\fR divides \fBa\fR by \fBm\fR using \fBrecp\fR. It places the quotient
186 in \fBdv\fR and the remainder in \fBrem\fR.
188 The \fB\s-1BN_RECP_CTX\s0\fR structure is defined as follows:
191 \& typedef struct bn_recp_ctx_st
193 \& BIGNUM N; /* the divisor */
194 \& BIGNUM Nr; /* the reciprocal */
201 It cannot be shared between threads.
203 .IX Header "RETURN VALUES"
204 \&\fIBN_RECP_CTX_new()\fR returns the newly allocated \fB\s-1BN_RECP_CTX\s0\fR, and \s-1NULL\s0
207 \&\fIBN_RECP_CTX_init()\fR and \fIBN_RECP_CTX_free()\fR have no return values.
209 For the other functions, 1 is returned for success, 0 on error.
210 The error codes can be obtained by \fIERR_get_error\fR\|(3).
212 .IX Header "SEE ALSO"
213 \&\fIopenssl_bn\fR\|(3), \fIERR_get_error\fR\|(3), \fIBN_add\fR\|(3),
214 \&\fIBN_CTX_new\fR\|(3)
217 \&\fB\s-1BN_RECP_CTX\s0\fR was added in SSLeay 0.9.0. Before that, the function
218 \&\fIBN_reciprocal()\fR was used instead, and the \fIBN_mod_mul_reciprocal()\fR
219 arguments were different.
