OPENSSL_ia32cap is introduced to control recently added SSE2 code

Add a conditional macro definition in case FindFirstFile and

Yet another question: some time ago you changed BN_set_word.
Why didn't you change BN_get_word as well?
Quite. I'm also removing the older commented-out implementations to improve
readability. This complex stuff seems to date from a time when the types
didn't match up well.

changes are the fallout). As this could break source code that doesn't
directly include headers for interfaces it uses, changes to recursive
includes are covered by the OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol. It's better to
define this when building and using openssl, and then adapt code where
necessary - this is how to stay current. However the mechanism exists for

locally initialising their own.
NB: I've removed the "BN_clear_free()" loops for the exit-paths in some of
these functions, and that may be a major part of the performance
improvements we're seeing. The "free" part can be removed because we're
using BN_CTX. The "clear" part OTOH can be removed because BN_CTX
destruction automatically performs this task, so performing it inside
functions that may be called repeatedly is wasteful. This is currently safe
within openssl due to the fact that BN_CTX objects are never created for
longer than a single high-level operation. However, that is only because
there's currently no mechanism in openssl for thread-local storage. Beyond
that, this might be an issue for applications using the bignum API directly
and caching their own BN_CTX objects. The solution is to introduce a flag
to BN_CTX_start() that allows its variables to be automatically sanitised
on release during BN_CTX_end(). This way any higher-level function (and
perhaps the application) can specify this flag in its own
BN_CTX_start()/BN_CTX_end() pair, and this will cause inner-loop functions
specifying the flag to be ignored so that sanitisation is handled only once
back out at the higher level. I will be implementing this in the near
future.
little TODO list in there as well as the debugging code (only enabled if
BN_CTX_DEBUG is defined).
I'd appreciate as much review and testing as can be spared for this. I'll
commit some changes to other parts of the bignum code shortly to make
better use of this implementation (no more fixed size limitations). Note
also that under identical optimisations, I'm seeing a noticable speed
increase over openssl-0.9.7 - so any feedback to confirm/deny this on other
systems would also be most welcome.
operations no longer require two distinct BN_CTX structures. This may put
more "strain" on the current BN_CTX implementation (which has a fixed limit
to the number of variables it will hold), but so far this limit is not
triggered by any of the tests pass and I will be changing BN_CTX in the
near future to avoid this problem anyway.
This also changes the default RSA implementation code to use the BN_CTX in
favour of initialising some of its variables locally in each function.
- Remove some unnecessary "+1"-like fudges. Sizes should be handled
exactly, as enlarging size parameters causes needless bloat and may just
make bugs less likely rather than fixing them: bn_expand() macro,
bn_expand_internal(), and BN_sqr().
- Deprecate bn_dup_expand() - it's new since 0.9.7, unused, and not that
useful.
- Remove unnecessary zeroing of unused bytes in bn_expand2().
- Rewrite BN_set_word() - it should be much simpler, the previous
complexities probably date from old mismatched type issues.
- Add missing bn_check_top() macros in bn_word.c
- Improve some degenerate case handling in BN_[add|sub]_word(), add
comments, and avoid a bignum expansion if an overflow isn't possible.

has highlighted that zero-valued bignums don't need any allocated word
data. The use of BN_set_word() to initialise a bignum to zero causes
needless allocation and gives it a return value that must be checked. This
change converts BN_zero() to a self-contained macro that has no
return/expression value and does not cause any expansion of bignum data.
Note, it would be tempting to rewrite the deprecated version as a
success-valued comma expression, such as;
#define BN_zero(a) ((a)->top = (a)->neg = 0, 1)
However, this evaluates 'a' twice and would confuse initialisation loops
(eg. while(..) { BN_zero(bn++) } ). As such, the deprecated version
continues to use BN_set_word().
