Member Function Documentation

MBEDTLS_PRIVATE() [1/3]

unsigned short mbedtls_mpi::MBEDTLS_PRIVATE

(

n

)

Total number of limbs in p.

MBEDTLS_PRIVATE() [2/3]

mbedtls_mpi_uint* mbedtls_mpi::MBEDTLS_PRIVATE

(

p

)

Pointer to limbs.

This may be NULL if n is 0.

MBEDTLS_PRIVATE() [3/3]

signed short mbedtls_mpi::MBEDTLS_PRIVATE

(

s

)

Sign: -1 if the mpi is negative, 1 otherwise.

The number 0 must be represented with `s = +1`. Although many library functions treat all-limbs-zero as equivalent to a valid representation of 0 regardless of the sign bit, there are exceptions, so bignum functions and external callers must always set s to +1 for the number zero.

Note that this implies that calloc() or `... = {0}` does not create a valid MPI representation. You must call mbedtls_mpi_init().
