The temporary variable causes unused variable warnings in opt mode with clang,
because the subsequent assert is compiled out.

which, in turn, are used nowhere at all. This is a good thing because
bn_set_max() would currently generate code that wouldn't compile (BIGNUM
has no 'max' element).
The only apparent use for bn_set_[low|high] would be for implementing
windowing algorithms, and all of openssl's seem to use bn_***_words()
helpers instead (including the BN_div() that Nils fixed recently, which had
been using independently-coded versions of what these unused macros are
intended for). I'm therefore consigning these macros to cvs oblivion in the
name of readability.
except internally to the allocator BN_CTX_new(), as such this deprecates
the use of BN_CTX_init() in the API. Moreover, the structure definition of
BN_CTX is taken out of bn_lcl.h and moved into bn_ctx.c itself.
NDEBUG should probably only be "forced" in the top-level configuration, but
until it is I will avoid removing it from bn_ctx.c which might surprise
people with massive slow-downs in their keygens. So I've left it in
bn_ctx.c but tidied up the preprocessor logic a touch and made it more
tolerant of debugging efforts.
sure they are available in opensslconf.h, by giving them names starting
with "OPENSSL_" to avoid conflicts with other packages and by making
sure e_os2.h will cover all platform-specific cases together with
opensslconf.h.
I've checked fairly well that nothing breaks with this (apart from
external software that will adapt if they have used something like
NO_KRB5), but I can't guarantee it completely, so a review of this
change would be a good thing.
course, that means we need to handle the cases where the two arrays to
bn_mul_recursive() and bn_mul_part_recursive() differ in size.
I haven't yet changed the comments that describe bn_mul_recursive()
and bn_mul_part_recursive(). I want this to be tested by more people
before I consider this change final. Please test away!
crypto/bn/bn_lcl.h for further details. It should be noted that for
the moment of this writing the code was tested only on Alpha. If
compiled with DEC C the C implementation exhibits 12% performance
improvement over the crypto/bn/asm/alpha.s (on EV56 box running
AlphaLinux). GNU C is (unfortunately) 8% behind the assembler
implementation. But it's OpenVMS Alpha users who *may* benefit most
as 'apps/openssl speed rsa' exhibits 6 (six) times performance
improvement over the original VMS bignum implementation. Where "*may*"
means "as soon as code is enabled though #define SIXTY_FOUR_BIT and
crypto/bn/asm/vms.mar is skipped."
