         *
         *    R = 2^n
         *
         * Let r be the extension of the n-bit result register by a
         * separate two's complement sign bit, such that -R <= r < R,
         * and define:
         *
         *    x = r * 2^k
         *
         * as the value being reduced modulo N, where k is a
         * non-negative integer bit shift.
         *
         * We want to reduce the initial value R^2=2^(2n), which we
         * may trivially represent using r=1 and k=2n.
         *
         * We then iterate over decrementing k, maintaining the loop
         * invariant:
         *
         *    -N <= r < N
         *
         * On each iteration we must first double r, to compensate for
         * having decremented k:
         *
         *    k' = k - 1
         *
         *    r' = 2r
         *
         *    x = r * 2^k = 2r * 2^(k-1) = r' * 2^k'
         *
         * Note that doubling the n-bit result register will create a
         * value of n+1 bits: this extra bit needs to be handled
         * separately during the calculation.
         *
         * We then subtract N (if r is currently non-negative) or add
         * N (if r is currently negative) to restore the loop
         * invariant:
         *
         *      0 <= r < N    =>   r" = 2r - N    =>   -N <= r" < N
         *     -N <= r < 0    =>   r" = 2r + N    =>   -N <= r" < N
         *
         * Note that since N may use all n bits, the most significant
         * bit of the n-bit result register is not a valid two's
         * complement sign bit for r: the extra sign bit therefore
         * also needs to be handled separately.
         *
         * Once we reach k=0, we have x=r and therefore:
         *
         *    -N <= x < N
         *
         * After this last loop iteration (with k=0), we may need to
         * add a single multiple of N to ensure that x is positive,
         * i.e. lies within the range 0 <= x < N.
         *
         * Since neither the modulus nor the value R^2 are secret, we
         * may elide approximately half of the total number of
         * iterations by constructing the initial representation of
         * R^2 as r=2^m and k=2n-m (for some m such that 2^m < N).

bigint_montgomery_relaxed_raw()

int bigint_montgomery_relaxed_raw	(	const bigint_element_t *	modulus0,
		bigint_element_t *	value0,
		bigint_element_t *	result0,
		unsigned int	size )

Perform relaxed Montgomery reduction (REDC) of a big integer.

Parameters

modulus0	Element 0 of big integer odd modulus
value0	Element 0 of big integer to be reduced
result0	Element 0 of big integer to hold result
size	Number of elements in modulus and result

Return values

carry

Carry out

The value to be reduced will be made divisible by the size of the modulus while retaining its residue class (i.e. multiples of the modulus will be added until the low half of the value is zero).

The result may be expressed as

tR = x + mN

where x is the input value, N is the modulus, R=2^n (where n is the number of bits in the representation of the modulus, including any leading zero bits), and m is the number of multiples of the modulus added to make the result tR divisible by R.

The maximum addend is mN <= (R-1)*N (and such an m can be proven to exist since N is limited to being odd and therefore coprime to R).

Since the result of this addition is one bit larger than the input value, a carry out bit is also returned. The caller may be able to prove that the carry out is always zero, in which case it may be safely ignored.

The upper half of the output value (i.e. t) will also be copied to the result pointer. It is permissible for the result pointer to overlap the lower half of the input value.

External knowledge of constraints on the modulus and the input value may be used to prove constraints on the result. The constraint on the modulus may be generally expressed as

R > kN

for some positive integer k. The value k=1 is allowed, and simply expresses that the modulus fits within the number of bits in its own representation.

For classic Montgomery reduction, we have k=1, i.e. R > N and a separate constraint that the input value is in the range x < RN. This gives the result constraint

tR < RN + (R-1)N < 2RN - N < 2RN t < 2N

A single subtraction of the modulus may therefore be required to bring it into the range t < N.

When the input value is known to be a product of two integers A and B, with A < aN and B < bN, we get the result constraint

tR < abN^2 + (R-1)N < (ab/k)RN + RN - N < (1 + ab/k)RN t < (1 + ab/k)N

If we have k=a=b=1, i.e. R > N with A < N and B < N, then the result is in the range t < 2N and may require a single subtraction of the modulus to bring it into the range t < N so that it may be used as an input on a subsequent iteration.

If we have k=4 and a=b=2, i.e. R > 4N with A < 2N and B < 2N, then the result is in the range t < 2N and may immediately be used as an input on a subsequent iteration, without requiring a subtraction.

Larger values of k may be used to allow for larger values of a and b, which can be useful to elide intermediate reductions in a calculation chain that involves additions and subtractions between multiplications (as used in elliptic curve point addition, for example). As a general rule: each intermediate addition or subtraction will require k to be doubled.

When the input value is known to be a single integer A, with A < aN (as used when converting out of Montgomery form), we get the result constraint

tR < aN + (R-1)N < RN + (a-1)N

If we have a=1, i.e. A < N, then the constraint becomes

tR < RN t < N

and so the result is immediately in the range t < N with no subtraction of the modulus required.

For any larger value of a, the result value t=N becomes possible. Additional external knowledge may potentially be used to prove that t=N cannot occur. For example: if the caller is performing modular exponentiation with a prime modulus (or, more generally, a modulus that is coprime to the base), then there is no way for a non-zero base value to end up producing an exact multiple of the modulus. If t=N cannot be disproved, then conversion out of Montgomery form may require an additional subtraction of the modulus.

bigint_ladder_raw()

void bigint_ladder_raw	(	bigint_element_t *	result0,

		const bigint_element_t *	exponent0,
		unsigned int	exponent_size,
		bigint_ladder_op_t *	op,
		const void *	ctx,
		void *	tmp )

Perform generalised exponentiation via a Montgomery ladder.

Parameters

result0	Element 0 of result (initialised to identity element)
multiple0	Element 0 of multiple (initialised to generator)
size	Number of elements in result and multiple
exponent0	Element 0 of exponent
exponent_size	Number of elements in exponent
op	Montgomery ladder commutative operation
ctx	Operation context (if needed)
tmp	Temporary working space (if needed)

The Montgomery ladder may be used to perform any operation that is isomorphic to exponentiation, i.e. to compute the result

r = g^e = g * g * g * g * .... * g

for an arbitrary commutative operation "*", generator "g" and exponent "e".

The result "r" is computed in constant time (assuming that the underlying operation is constant time) in k steps, where k is the number of bits in the big integer representation of the exponent.

The result "r" must be initialised to the operation's identity element, and the multiple must be initialised to the generator "g". On exit, the multiple will contain

m = r * g = g^(e+1)

Note that the terminology used here refers to exponentiation defined as repeated multiplication, but that the ladder may equally well be used to perform any isomorphic operation (such as multiplication defined as repeated addition).
