a44dae7fd3 Add a constant-time generic modular inverse function.
This uses the full binary GCD algorithm, where all four of A, B, C, and
D must be retained. (BN_mod_inverse_odd implements the odd number
version which only needs A and C.) It is patterned after the version
in the Handbook of Applied Cryptography, but tweaked so the coefficients
are non-negative and bounded.

1044553d6d Add new GCD and related primitives.
RSA key generation requires computing a GCD (p-1 and q-1 are relatively
prime with e) and an LCM (the Carmichael totient). I haven't made BN_gcd
itself constant-time here to save having to implement
bn_lshift_secret_shift, since the two necessary operations can be served
by bn_rshift_secret_shift, already added for Rabin-Miller. However, the
guts of BN_gcd are replaced. Otherwise, the new functions are only
connected to tests for now, they'll be used in subsequent CLs.

To support LCM, there is also now a constant-time division function.
This does not replace BN_div because bn_div_consttime is some 40x slower
than BN_div. That penalty is fine for RSA keygen because that operation
is not bottlenecked on division, so we prefer simplicity over
performance.

23af438ccd Compute p - q in constant time.
Expose the constant-time abs_sub functions from the fixed Karatsuba code
in BIGNUM form for RSA to call into. RSA key generation involves
checking if |p - q| is above some lower bound.

BN_sub internally branches on which of p or q is bigger. For any given
iteration, this is not secret---one of p or q is necessarily the larger,
and whether we happened to pick the larger or smaller first is
irrelevant. Accordingly, there is no need to perform the p/q swap at the
end in constant-time.

However, this stage of the algorithm picks p first, sticks with it, and
then computes |p - q| for various q candidates. The distribution of
comparisons leaks information about p. The leak is unlikely to be
problematic, but plug it anyway.

97ac45e2f7 Change the order of GCD and trial division.
RSA key generation currently does the GCD check before the primality
test, in hopes of discarding things invalid by other means before
running the expensive primality check.

However, GCD is about to get a bit more expensive to clear the timing
leak, and the trial division part of primality testing is quite fast.
Thus, split that portion out via a new bn_is_obviously_composite and
call it before GCD.

e6f46e2563 Blind the range check for finding a Rabin-Miller witness.
Rabin-Miller requires selecting a random number from 2 to |w|-1.
This is done by picking an N-bit number and discarding out-of-range
values. This leaks information about |w|, so apply blinding. Rather than
discard bad values, adjust them to be in range.
Though not uniformly selected, these adjusted values
are still usable as Rabin-Miller checks.

Rabin-Miller is already probabilistic, so we could reach the desired
confidence levels by just suitably increasing the iteration count.
However, to align with FIPS 186-4, we use a more pessimal analysis: we
do not count the non-uniform values towards the iteration count. As a
result, this function is more complex and has more timing risk than
necessary.

We count both total iterations and uniform ones and iterate until we've
reached at least |BN_PRIME_CHECKS_BLINDED| and |iterations|,
respectively.  If the latter is large enough, it will be the limiting
factor with high probability and we won't leak information.

Note this blinding does not impact most calls when picking primes
because composites are rejected early. Only the two secret primes see
extra work.  So while this does make the BNTest.PrimeChecking test take
about 2x longer to run on debug mode, RSA key generation time is fine.

Another, perhaps simpler, option here would have to run
bn_rand_range_words to the full 100 count, select an arbitrary
successful try, and declare failure of the entire keygen process (as we
do already) if all tries failed. I went with the option in this CL
because I happened to come up with it first, and because the failure
probability decreases much faster. Additionally, the option in this CL
does not affect composite numbers, while the alternate would. This gives
a smaller multiplier on our entropy draw. We also continue to use the
"wasted" work for stronger assurance on primality. FIPS' numbers are
remarkably low, considering the increase has negligible cost.

Thanks to Nathan Benjamin for helping me explore the failure rate as the
target count and blinding count change.

Now we're down to the rest of RSA keygen, which will require all the
operations we've traditionally just avoided in constant-time code!

8eadca50a2 Don't leak |a| in the primality test.
(This is actually slightly silly as |a|'s probability distribution falls
off exponentially, but it's easy enough to do right.)

Instead, we run the loop to the end. This is still performant because we
can, as before, return early on composite numbers. Only two calls
actually run to the end. Moreover, running to the end has comparable
cost to BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime.

Median time goes from 0.140s to 0.231s. That cost some, but we're still
faster than the original implementation.

We're down to one more leak, which is that the BN_rand_range_ex call
does not hide |w1|. That one may only be solved probabilistically...

Compilers use a variant of Barrett reduction to divide by constants,
which conveniently also avoids problematic operations on the secret
numerator. Implement the variant as described here:
http://ridiculousfish.com/blog/posts/labor-of-division-episode-i.html

Repurpose this to implement a constant-time BN_mod_word replacement.
It's even much faster! I've gone ahead and replaced the other
BN_mod_word calls on the primes table.

That should give plenty of budget for the other changes. (I am assuming
that a regression is okay, as RSA keygen is not performance-sensitive,
but that I should avoid anything too dramatic.)

6f564afbdd Make BN_mod_*_quick constant-time.
As the EC code will ultimately want to use these in "words" form by way
of EC_FELEM, and because it's much easier, I've implement these as
low-level words-based functions that require all inputs have the same
width. The BIGNUM versions which RSA and, for now, EC calls are
implemented on top of that.

Unfortunately, doing such things in constant-time and accounting for
undersized inputs requires some scratch space, and these functions don't
take BN_CTX. So I've added internal bn_mod_*_quick_ctx functions that
take a BN_CTX and the old functions now allocate a bit unnecessarily.
RSA only needs lshift (for BN_MONT_CTX) and sub (for CRT), but the
generic EC code wants add as well.

The generic EC code isn't even remotely constant-time, and I hope to
ultimately use stack-allocated EC_FELEMs, so I've made the actual
implementations here implemented in "words", which is much simpler
anyway due to not having to take care of widths.

I've also gone ahead and switched the EC code to these functions,
largely as a test of their performance (an earlier iteration made the EC
code noticeably slower). These operations are otherwise not
performance-critical in RSA.

The conversion from BIGNUM to BIGNUM+BN_CTX should be dropped by the
static linker already, and the unused BIGNUM+BN_CTX functions will fall
off when EC_FELEM happens.

Update-Note: BN_mod_*_quick bounce on malloc a bit now, but they're not
    really used externally. The one caller I found was wpa_supplicant
    which bounces on malloc already. They appear to be implementing
    compressed coordinates by hand? We may be able to convince them to
    call EC_POINT_set_compressed_coordinates_GFp.

This has no behavior change, but it has a semantic one. This CL is an
assertion that all BIGNUM functions tolerate non-minimal BIGNUMs now.
Specifically:

- Functions that do not touch top/width are assumed to not care.

- Functions that do touch top/width will be changed by this CL. These

Subsequent CLs will start adjusting the widths that BIGNUM functions

226b4b51b5 Make the rest of BIGNUM accept non-minimal values.
Test this by re-running bn_tests.txt tests a lot. For the most part,
this was done by scattering bn_minimal_width or bn_correct_top calls as
needed. We'll incrementally tease apart the functions that need to act
on non-minimal BIGNUMs in constant-time.

BN_sqr was switched to call bn_correct_top at the end, rather than
sample bn_minimal_width, in anticipation of later splitting it into
BN_sqr (for calculators) and BN_sqr_fixed (for BN_mod_mul_montgomery).

BN_div_word also uses bn_correct_top because it calls BN_lshift so
officially shouldn't rely on BN_lshift returning something
minimal-width, though I expect we'd want to split off a BN_lshift_fixed
than change that anyway?

The shifts sample bn_minimal_width rather than bn_correct_top because
they all seem to try to be very clever around the bit width. If we need
constant-time versions of them, we can adjust them later.

76ce04bec8 Fix up BN_MONT_CTX_set with non-minimal values.
Give a non-minimal modulus, there are two possible values of R we might
pick: 2^(BN_BITS2 * width) or 2^(BN_BITS2 * bn_minimal_width).
Potentially secret moduli would make the former attractive and things
might even work, but our only secret moduli (RSA) have public bit
widths. It's more cases to test and the usual BIGNUM invariant is that
widths do not affect numerical output.

Thus, settle on minimizing mont->N for now. With the top explicitly made
minimal, computing |lgBigR| is also a little simpler.

This CL also abstracts out the < R check in the RSA code, and implements
it in a width-agnostic way.

ad5cfdf541 Add initial support for non-minimal BIGNUMs.
Thanks to Andres Erbsen for extremely helpful suggestions on how finally
plug this long-standing hole!

OpenSSL BIGNUMs are currently minimal-width, which means they cannot be
constant-time. We'll need to either excise BIGNUM from RSA and EC or
somehow fix BIGNUM. EC_SCALAR and later EC_FELEM work will excise it
from EC, but RSA's BIGNUMs are more transparent.  Teaching BIGNUM to
handle non-minimal word widths is probably simpler.

The main constraint is BIGNUM's large "calculator" API surface. One
could, in theory, do arbitrary math on RSA components, which means all
public functions must tolerate non-minimal inputs. This is also useful
for EC; https://boringssl-review.googlesource.com/c/boringssl/+/24445 is
silly.

As a first step, fix comparison-type functions that were assuming
minimal BIGNUMs. I've also added bn_resize_words, but it is testing-only
until the rest of the library is fixed.

bn->top is now a loose upper bound we carry around. It does not affect
numerical results, only performance and secrecy. This is a departure
from the original meaning, and compiler help in auditing everything is
nice, so the final change in this series will rename bn->top to
bn->width. Thus these new functions are named per "width", not "top".

Looking further ahead, how are output BIGNUM widths determined? There's
three notions of correctness here:

1. Do I compute the right answer for all widths?

2. Do I handle secret data in constant time?

3. Does my memory usage not balloon absurdly?

For (1), a BIGNUM function must give the same answer for all input
widths. BN_mod_add_quick may assume |a| < |m|, but |a| may still be
wider than |m| by way of leading zeres. The simplest approach is to
write code in a width-agnostic way and rely on functions to accept all
widths. Where functions need to look at bn->d, we'll a few helper
functions to smooth over funny widths.

For (2), (1) is little cumbersome. Consider constant-time modular
addition. A sane type system would guarantee input widths match. But C
is weak here, and bifurcating the internals is a lot of work. Thus, at
least for now, I do not propose we move RSA's internal computation out
of BIGNUM. (EC_SCALAR/EC_FELEM are valuable for EC because we get to
stack-allocate, curves were already specialized, and EC only has two
types with many operations on those types. None of these apply to RSA.
We've got numbers mod n, mod p, mod q, and their corresponding
exponents, each of which is used for basically one operation.)

Instead, constant-time BIGNUM functions will output non-minimal widths.
This is trivial for BN_bin2bn or modular arithmetic. But for BN_mul,
constant-time[*] would dictate r->top = a->top + b->top. A calculator
repeatedly multiplying by one would then run out of memory.  Those we'll
split into a private BN_mul_fixed for crypto, leaving BN_mul for
calculators. BN_mul is just BN_mul_fixed followed by bn_correct_top.

[*] BN_mul is not constant-time for other reasons, but that will be
fixed separately.

(These were taken on a VM, so the measurements are extremely noisy, but
this sort of improvement is visible regardless.)

Alas, we do need a little extra bit of fiddling because division does
not work (crbug.com/787617).

Bug: chromium:787617
Update-Note: This removes the MSan uint128_t workaround which does not
    appear to be necessary anymore.

a838f9dc7e Make ECDSA signing 10% faster and plug some timing leaks.
None of the asymmetric crypto we inherented from OpenSSL is
constant-time because of BIGNUM. BIGNUM chops leading zeros off the
front of everything, so we end up leaking information about the first
word, in theory. BIGNUM functions additionally tend to take the full
range of inputs and then call into BN_nnmod at various points.

All our secret values should be acted on in constant-time, but k in
ECDSA is a particularly sensitive value. So, ecdsa_sign_setup, in an
attempt to mitigate the BIGNUM leaks, would add a couple copies of the
order.

This does not work at all. k is used to compute two values: k^-1 and kG.
The first operation when computing k^-1 is to call BN_nnmod if k is out
of range. The entry point to our tuned constant-time curve
implementations is to call BN_nnmod if the scalar has too many bits,
which this causes. The result is both corrections are immediately undone
but cause us to do more variable-time work in the meantime.

Replace all these computations around k with the word-based functions
added in the various preceding CLs. In doing so, replace the BN_mod_mul
calls (which internally call BN_nnmod) with Montgomery reduction. We can
avoid taking k^-1 out of Montgomery form, which combines nicely with
Brian Smith's trick in 3426d10119. Along
the way, we avoid some unnecessary mallocs.

BIGNUM still affects the private key itself, as well as the EC_POINTs.
But this should hopefully be much better now. Also it's 10% faster:

a08bba51a5 Add bn_mod_exp_mont_small and bn_mod_inverse_prime_mont_small.
These can be used to invert values in ECDSA. Unlike their BIGNUM
counterparts, the caller is responsible for taking values in and out of
Montgomery domain. This will save some work later on in the ECDSA
computation.

6bc18a3bd4 Add bn_mul_small and bn_sqr_small.
As part of excising BIGNUM from EC scalars, we will need a "words"
version of BN_mod_mul_montgomery. That, in turn, requires BN_sqr and
BN_mul for cases where we don't have bn_mul_mont.

BN_sqr and BN_mul have a lot of logic in there, with the most complex
cases being not even remotely constant time. Fortunately, those only
apply to RSA-sized numbers, not EC-sized numbers. (With the exception, I
believe, of 32-bit P-521 which just barely exceeds the cutoff.) Imposing
a limit also makes it easier to stack-allocate temporaries (BN_CTX
serves a similar purpose in BIGNUM).

Extract bn_mul_small and bn_sqr_small and test them as part of
bn_tests.txt. Later changes will build on these.

If we end up reusing these functions for RSA in the future (though that
would require tending to the egregiously non-constant-time code in the
no-asm build), we probably want to extract a version where there is an
explicit tmp parameter as in bn_sqr_normal rather than the stack bits.

73df153be8 Make BN_generate_dsa_nonce internally constant-time.
This rewrites the internals with a "words" variant that can avoid
bn_correct_top. It still ultimately calls bn_correct_top as the calling
convention is sadly still BIGNUM, but we can lift that calling
convention out incrementally.

Performance seems to be comparable, if not faster.

fed560ff2a Clear no-op BN_MASK2 masks.
This is an OpenSSL thing to support platforms where BN_ULONG is not
actually the size it claims to be. We define BN_ULONG to uint32_t and
uint64_t which are guaranteed by C to implement arithemetic modulo 2^32
and 2^64, respectively. Thus there is no need for any of this.

This reverts commit f6942f0d22.

Reason for revert: This doesn't actually work in clang-cl. I
forgot we didn't have the clang-cl try bots enabled! :-( I
believe __asm__ is still okay, but I'll try it by hand
tomorrow.
