        int BN_from_montgomery(BIGNUM *r, BIGNUM *a, BN_MONT_CTX *mont,
                BN_CTX *ctx);

DESCRIPTION
       These functions implement Montgomery multiplication. They are used
       automatically when BN_mod_exp(3) is called with suitable input, but
       they may be useful when several operations are to be performed using
       the same modulus.
       BN_MONT_CTX_new() allocates and initializes a BN_MONT_CTX structure.
       BN_MONT_CTX_init() initializes an existing uninitialized BN_MONT_CTX.
       BN_MONT_CTX_set() sets up the mont structure from the modulus m by
       precomputing its inverse and a value R.
       BN_MONT_CTX_copy() copies the BN_MONT_CTX from to to.
       BN_MONT_CTX_free() frees the components of the BN_MONT_CTX, and, if it
       was created by BN_MONT_CTX_new(), also the structure itself.
       BN_mod_mul_montgomery() computes Mont(a,b):=a*b*R^-1 and places the
       result in r.
       BN_from_montgomery() performs the Montgomery reduction r = a*R^-1.
       BN_to_montgomery() computes Mont(a,R^2), i.e. a*R.  Note that a must be
       non-negative and smaller than the modulus.
       For all functions, ctx is a previously allocated BN_CTX used for
       temporary variables.
       The BN_MONT_CTX structure is defined as follows:
        typedef struct bn_mont_ctx_st
               {
               int ri;         /* number of bits in R */
               BIGNUM RR;      /* R^2 (used to convert to Montgomery form) */
               BIGNUM N;       /* The modulus */
               BIGNUM Ni;      /* R*(1/R mod N) - N*Ni = 1
                                * (Ni is only stored for bignum algorithm) */
               BN_ULONG n0;    /* least significant word of Ni */
               int flags;
               } BN_MONT_CTX;
       BN_to_montgomery() is a macro.
RETURN VALUES
       BN_MONT_CTX_new() returns the newly allocated BN_MONT_CTX, and NULL on
       error.
       BN_MONT_CTX_init() and BN_MONT_CTX_free() have no return values.
       For the other functions, 1 is returned for success, 0 on error.  The
       error codes can be obtained by ERR_get_error(3).
WARNING
       The inputs must be reduced modulo m, otherwise the result will be
       outside the expected range.
