.. Set up some character translations and predefined strings. \*(-- will
give an unbreakable dash, \*(PI will give pi, \*(L" will give a left
double quote, and \*(R" will give a right double quote. \*(C+ will
give a nicer C++. Capital omega is used to do unbreakable dashes and
therefore won't be available. \*(C` and \*(C' expand to `' in nroff,
nothing in troff, for use with C<>.

Escape single quotes in literal strings from groff's Unicode transform.

If the F register is turned on, we'll generate index entries on stderr for
titles (.TH), headers (.SH), subsections (.SS), items (.Ip), and index
entries marked with X<> in POD. Of course, you'll have to process the
output yourself in some meaningful fashion.

Avoid warning from groff about undefined register 'F'.

\fIBN_BLINDING_free() frees the \s-1BN_BLINDING\s0 structure.

\fIBN_BLINDING_update() updates the \s-1BN_BLINDING\s0 parameters by squaring the A and Ai or, after specific number of uses and if the necessary parameters are set, by re-creating the blinding parameters.

\fIBN_BLINDING_convert_ex() multiplies n with the blinding factor A. If r is not \s-1NULL\s0 a copy the inverse blinding factor Ai will be returned in r (this is useful if a \s-1RSA\s0 object is shared amoung several threads). BN_BLINDING_invert_ex() multiplies n with the inverse blinding factor Ai. If r is not \s-1NULL\s0 it will be used as the inverse blinding.

\fIBN_BLINDING_convert() and BN_BLINDING_invert() are wrapper functions for BN_BLINDING_convert_ex() and BN_BLINDING_invert_ex() with r set to \s-1NULL.\s0

\fIBN_BLINDING_set_thread_id() and BN_BLINDING_get_thread_id() set and get the \*(L"thread id\*(R" value of the \s-1BN_BLINDING\s0 structure, a field provided to users of \s-1BN_BLINDING\s0 structure to help them provide proper locking if needed for multi-threaded use. The \*(L"thread id\*(R" of a newly allocated \s-1BN_BLINDING\s0 structure is zero.

\fIBN_BLINDING_get_flags() returns the \s-1BN_BLINDING\s0 flags. Currently there are two supported flags: \s-1BN_BLINDING_NO_UPDATE\s0 and \fB\s-1BN_BLINDING_NO_RECREATE\s0. \s-1BN_BLINDING_NO_UPDATE\s0 inhibits the automatic update of the \s-1BN_BLINDING\s0 parameters after each use and \s-1BN_BLINDING_NO_RECREATE\s0 inhibits the automatic re-creation of the \s-1BN_BLINDING\s0 parameters after a fixed number of uses (currently 32). In newly allocated \s-1BN_BLINDING\s0 objects no flags are set. \fIBN_BLINDING_set_flags() sets the \s-1BN_BLINDING\s0 parameters flags.

\fIBN_BLINDING_create_param() creates new \s-1BN_BLINDING\s0 parameters using the exponent e and the modulus m. bn_mod_exp and \fBm_ctx can be used to pass special functions for exponentiation (normally BN_mod_exp_mont() and \s-1BN_MONT_CTX\s0).

Header "RETURN VALUES" \fIBN_BLINDING_new() returns the newly allocated \s-1BN_BLINDING\s0 structure or \s-1NULL\s0 in case of an error.

\fIBN_BLINDING_update(), BN_BLINDING_convert(), BN_BLINDING_invert(), \fIBN_BLINDING_convert_ex() and BN_BLINDING_invert_ex() return 1 on success and 0 if an error occured.

\fIBN_BLINDING_get_thread_id() returns the thread id (a unsigned long value) or 0 if not set.

\fIBN_BLINDING_get_flags() returns the currently set \s-1BN_BLINDING\s0 flags (a unsigned long value).

\fIBN_BLINDING_create_param() returns the newly created \s-1BN_BLINDING\s0 parameters or \s-1NULL\s0 on error.
