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