BN_mod_exp_mont is most commonly used in RSA verification, where the exponent
sizes are small enough to use 1-bit "windows". There's no need to allocate the

The standard computation model for constant-time code is that memory
access patterns must be independent of secret data.
BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime was previously written to a slightly weaker
model: only cacheline access patterns must be independent of secret
data. It assumed accesses within a cacheline were indistinguishable.
The CacheBleed attack (https://eprint.iacr.org/2016/224.pdf) showed this
assumption was false. Cache lines may be divided into cache banks, and
the researchers were able to measure cache bank contention pre-Haswell.
For Haswell, the researchers note "But, as Haswell does show timing
variations that depend on low address bits [19], it may be vulnerable to
similar attacks."
OpenSSL's fix to CacheBleed was not to adopt the standard constant-time
computation model. Rather, it now assumes accesses within a 16-byte
cache bank are indistinguishable, at least in the C copy_from_prebuf
path. These weaker models failed before with CacheBleed, so avoiding
such assumptions seems prudent. (The [19] citation above notes a false
dependence between memory addresses with a distance of 4k, which may be
what the paper was referring to.) Moreover, the C path is largely unused
on x86_64 (which uses mont5 asm), so it is especially questionable for
the generic C code to make assumptions based on x86_64.
Just walk the entire table in the C implementation. Doing so as-is comes
with a performance hit, but the striped memory layout is, at that point,
useless. We regain the performance loss (and then some) by using a more
natural layout. Benchmarks below.
This CL does not touch the mont5 assembly; I haven't figured out what

computed the wrong value. Reject it instead.
Update-Note: BN_mod_exp* will no longer work for negative moduli. It already

Historically, OpenSSL's modular exponentiation functions tolerated negative
moduli by ignoring the sign bit. The special case for a modulus of 1 should do
the same. That said, this is ridiculous and the only reason I'm importing this
is BN_abs_is_word(1) is marginally more efficient than BN_is_one() and we
haven't gotten around to enforcing positive moduli yet.

|alloca| is dangerous and poorly specified, according to any
description of |alloca|. It's also hard for some analysis tools to
reason about.
The code here assumed |alloca| is a macro, which isn't a valid
assumption. Depending on what which headers are included and what
toolchain is being used, |alloca| may or may not be defined as a macro,
and this might change over time if/when toolchains are updated. Or, we
might be doing static analysis and/or dynamic analysis with a different
configuration w.r.t. the availability of |alloca| than production
builds use.
Regardless, the |alloca| code path only kicked in when the inputs are
840 bits or smaller. Since the multi-prime RSA support was removed, for
interesting RSA key sizes the input will be at least 1024 bits and this
code path won't be triggered since powerbufLen will be larger than 3072
bytes in those cases. ECC inversion via Fermat's Little Theorem has its
own constant-time exponentiation so there are no cases where smaller
inputs need to be fast.
The RSAZ code avoids the |OPENSSL_malloc| for 2048-bit RSA keys.
Increasingly the RSAZ code won't be used though, since it will be
skipped over on Broadwell+ CPUs. Generalize the RSAZ stack allocation
to work for non-RSAZ code paths. In order to ensure this doesn't cause
too much stack usage on platforms where RSAZ wasn't already being used,
only do so on x86-64, which already has this large stack size
requirement due to RSAZ.
This change will make it easier to refactor |BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime|
to do that more safely and in a way that's more compatible with various
analysis tools.
This is also a step towards eliminating the |uintptr_t|-based alignment
hack.
Since this change increases the number of times |OPENSSL_free| is
skipped, I've added an explicit |OPENSSL_cleanse| to ensure the
zeroization is done. This should be done regardless of the other changes
here.

If the caller asked for the base to be treated as secret, we should
provide that. Allowing unbounded inputs is not compatible with being
constant-time.
Additionally, this aligns with the guidance here:
https://github.com/HACS-workshop/spectre-mitigations/blob/master/crypto_guidelines.md#1-do-not-conditionally-choose-between-constant-and-non-constant-time
Update-Note: BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime and BN_mod_exp_mont now require
inputs be fully reduced. I believe current callers tolerate this.
Additionally, due to a quirk of how certain operations were ordered,
using (publicly) zero exponent tolerated a NULL BN_CTX while other
exponents required non-NULL BN_CTX. Non-NULL BN_CTX is now required
uniformly. This is unlikely to cause problems. Any call site where the
exponent is always zero should just be replaced with BN_value_one().

https://boringssl-review.googlesource.com/10520 and then later
https://boringssl-review.googlesource.com/25285 made BN_MONT_CTX_set
constant-time, which is necessary for RSA's mont_p and mont_q. However,
due to a typo in the benchmark, they did not correctly measure.
Split BN_MONT_CTX creation into a constant-time and variable-time one.
The constant-time one uses our current algorithm and the latter restores
the original BN_mod codepath.
Should we wish to avoid BN_mod, I have an alternate version lying
around:
First, BN_set_bit + bn_mod_lshift1_consttime as now to count up to 2*R.
Next, observe that 2*R = BN_to_montgomery(2) and R*R =
BN_to_montgomery(R) = BN_to_montgomery(2^r_bits) Also observe that
BN_mod_mul_montgomery only needs n0, not RR. Split the core of
BN_mod_exp_mont into its own function so the caller handles conversion.
Raise 2*R to the r_bits power to get 2^r_bits*R = R*R.
The advantage of that algorithm is that it is still constant-time, so we
only need one BN_MONT_CTX_new. Additionally, it avoids BN_mod which is
otherwise (almost, but the remaining links should be easy to cut) out of
the critical path for correctness. One less operation to worry about.
The disadvantage is that it is gives a 25% (RSA-2048) or 32% (RSA-4096)
slower RSA verification speed. I went with the BN_mod one for the time
being.

The first non-zero window (which we can condition on for public
exponents) always multiplies by one. This means we can cut out one
Montgomery multiplication. It also means we never actually need to
initialize r to one, saving another Montgomery multiplication for P-521.
This, in turn, means we don't need the bn_one_to_montgomery optimization
for the public-exponent exponentations, so we can delete
bn_one_to_montgomery_small. (The function does currently promise to
handle p = 0, but this is not actually reachable, so it can just do a
reduction on RR.)
For RSA, where we're not doing many multiplications to begin with,
saving one is noticeable.

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.

The exponent here is one of d, dmp1, or dmq1 for RSA. This value and its
bit length are both secret. The only public upper bound is the bit width
of the corresponding modulus (RSA n, p, and q, respectively).
Although BN_num_bits is constant-time (sort of; see bn_correct_top notes
in preceding patch), this does not fix the root problem, which is that
the windows are based on the minimal bit width, not the upper bound. We
could use BN_num_bits(m), but BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime is public API
and may be called with larger exponents. Instead, use all top*BN_BITS2
bits in the BIGNUM. This is still sensitive to the long-standing
bn_correct_top leak, but we need to fix that regardless.
This may cause us to do a handful of extra multiplications for RSA keys
