//! Constant-time arithmetic modulo a prime, in Montgomery form.
//!
//! Each NIST curve needs two residue rings: the coordinate field GF(p) and the
//! scalar ring Z/nZ. They differ only in their modulus and their width, so
//! the `mont_field!` macro generates all of them — four for P-256 and P-384 —
//! from one implementation.
//!
//! # Deriving the constants
//!
//! Montgomery arithmetic needs `R^2 mod m` and `-m^-1 mod 2^64`. Both are
//! computed at compile time from the modulus rather than pasted in as magic
//! numbers: `R^2` by `2 * 64 * LIMBS` constant-time doublings, and the inverse
//! by Newton iteration. A transcription error in a hand-copied constant would
//! produce a library that computes confidently wrong answers. The only
//! constants left to get wrong are the modulus, the curve coefficient, and the
//! base point — and the tests check those against the curve equation and the
//! group order.

/// The widest curve supported here, in 64-bit limbs.
///
/// Nine, for P-521: 521 bits needs nine 64-bit words, and the top one carries
/// only nine significant bits. Nothing here requires the modulus to fill its
/// top limb — see `from_be_bytes` and `to_be_bytes`, which is where that

//
// Values are always `[u64; N]`, and so are the constants. What differs by
// target is the word the carry chains and the Montgomery multiplication run
// on inside `adc`, `sbb` and `mont_mul`.
//
// On a 64-bit CPU, a `u64 * u64 -> u128` product is one or two instructions,
// and [`wide`] uses it. On 32-bit RISC-V the same code is a constant-time
// disaster: that CPU has no conditional move, and rustc builds a 128-bit carry
// from 32-bit comparisons joined by *branches* -- 100 of them in a P-256 point
// addition, 248 on P-521, on secret data. [`narrow`] runs the identical
// algorithms on 32-bit words with `u64` accumulators, so every carry is a
// shift of a value that cannot overflow, and nothing is compared.
//
// Both compute the same function: Montgomery form with `R = 2^(64 N)` is
// Montgomery form with `R = 2^(32 * 2N)`, and `-m^-1 mod 2^32` is the low half
// of `-m^-1 mod 2^64`. So the representation, every constant and every result
// is bit for bit the same, and the tests below compare the two directly.
// `narrow` is selected on `riscv32`, and anywhere under `--cfg ic_limb32`, the
// flag that also selects the 32-bit Curve25519 field.
