groff 1.23.0 added .MR to its -man macro package. The NEWS file states
that the inclusion of the macro "was prompted by its introduction to
Plan 9 from User Space's troff in August 2020." From d32deab it seems
that the name for Plan 9 from User Space's implementation was suggested
by groff maintainer G. Brandon Robinson.
Not sure if the intention was to make these definitions compatible, but
it would be nice if they were.
Currently, Plan 9 from User Space's .MR expects its second argument to
be parenthesized. groff's .MR does not. This results in extra
parentheses appearing in manual references when viewing Plan 9 from User
Space's manual pages on a system using groff.

.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
.PP
|
|
These routines perform extended precision integer arithmetic.
|
|
The basic type is
|
|
.BR mpint ,
|
|
which points to an array of
|
|
.BR mpdigit s,
|
|
stored in little-endian order:
|
|
.sp
|
|
.EX
|
|
typedef struct mpint mpint;
|
|
struct mpint
|
|
{
|
|
int sign; /* +1 or -1 */
|
|
int size; /* allocated digits */
|
|
int top; /* significant digits */
|
|
mpdigit *p;
|
|
char flags;
|
|
};
|
|
.EE
|
|
.PP
|
|
The sign of 0 is +1.
|
|
.PP
|
|
The size of
|
|
.B mpdigit
|
|
is architecture-dependent and defined in
|
|
.BR /$cputype/include/u.h .
|
|
.BR Mpint s
|
|
are dynamically allocated and must be explicitly freed. Operations
|
|
grow the array of digits as needed.
|
|
.PP
|
|
In general, the result parameters are last in the
|
|
argument list.
|
|
.PP
|
|
Routines that return an
|
|
.B mpint
|
|
will allocate the
|
|
.B mpint
|
|
if the result parameter is
|
|
.BR nil .
|
|
This includes
|
|
.IR strtomp ,
|
|
.IR itomp ,
|
|
.IR uitomp ,
|
|
and
|
|
.IR btomp .
|
|
These functions, in addition to
|
|
.I mpnew
|
|
and
|
|
.IR mpcopy ,
|
|
will return
|
|
.B nil
|
|
if the allocation fails.
|
|
.PP
|
|
Input and result parameters may point to the same
|
|
.BR mpint .
|
|
The routines check and copy where necessary.
|
|
.PP
|
|
.I Mpnew
|
|
creates an
|
|
.B mpint
|
|
with an initial allocation of
|
|
.I n
|
|
bits.
|
|
If
|
|
.I n
|
|
is zero, the allocation will be whatever was specified in the
|
|
last call to
|
|
.I mpsetminbits
|
|
or to the initial value, 1056.
|
|
.I Mpfree
|
|
frees an
|
|
.BR mpint .
|
|
.I Mpbits
|
|
grows the allocation of
|
|
.I b
|
|
to fit at least
|
|
.I n
|
|
bits. If
|
|
.B b->top
|
|
doesn't cover
|
|
.I n
|
|
bits it increases it to do so.
|
|
Unless you are writing new basic operations, you
|
|
can restrict yourself to
|
|
.B mpnew(0)
|
|
and
|
|
.BR mpfree(b) .
|
|
.PP
|
|
.I Mpnorm
|
|
normalizes the representation by trimming any high order zero
|
|
digits. All routines except
|
|
.B mpbits
|
|
return normalized results.
|
|
.PP
|
|
.I Mpcopy
|
|
creates a new
|
|
.B mpint
|
|
with the same value as
|
|
.I b
|
|
while
|
|
.I mpassign
|
|
sets the value of
|
|
.I new
|
|
to be that of
|
|
.IR old .
|
|
.PP
|
|
.I Mprand
|
|
creates an
|
|
.I n
|
|
bit random number using the generator
|
|
.IR gen .
|
|
.I Gen
|
|
takes a pointer to a string of uchar's and the number
|
|
to fill in.
|
|
.PP
|
|
.I Strtomp
|
|
and
|
|
.I mptoa
|
|
convert between
|
|
.SM ASCII
|
|
and
|
|
.B mpint
|
|
representations using the base indicated.
|
|
Only the bases 10, 16, 32, and 64 are
|
|
supported. Anything else defaults to 16.
|
|
.IR Strtomp
|
|
skips any leading spaces or tabs.
|
|
.IR Strtomp 's
|
|
scan stops when encountering a digit not valid in the
|
|
base. If
|
|
.I rptr
|
|
is not zero,
|
|
.I *rptr
|
|
is set to point to the character immediately after the
|
|
string converted.
|
|
If the parse pterminates before any digits are found,
|
|
.I strtomp
|
|
return
|
|
.BR nil .
|
|
.I Mptoa
|
|
returns a pointer to the filled buffer.
|
|
If the parameter
|
|
.I buf
|
|
is
|
|
.BR nil ,
|
|
the buffer is allocated.
|
|
.I Mpfmt
|
|
can be used with
|
|
.MR fmtinstall 3
|
|
and
|
|
.MR print 3
|
|
to print hexadecimal representations of
|
|
.BR mpint s.
|
|
.PP
|
|
.I Mptobe
|
|
and
|
|
.I mptole
|
|
convert an
|
|
.I mpint
|
|
to a byte array. The former creates a big endian representation,
|
|
the latter a little endian one.
|
|
If the destination
|
|
.I buf
|
|
is not
|
|
.BR nil ,
|
|
it specifies the buffer of length
|
|
.I blen
|
|
for the result. If the representation
|
|
is less than
|
|
.I blen
|
|
bytes, the rest of the buffer is zero filled.
|
|
If
|
|
.I buf
|
|
is
|
|
.BR nil ,
|
|
then a buffer is allocated and a pointer to it is
|
|
deposited in the location pointed to by
|
|
.IR bufp .
|
|
Sign is ignored in these conversions, i.e., the byte
|
|
array version is always positive.
|
|
.PP
|
|
.IR Betomp ,
|
|
and
|
|
.I letomp
|
|
convert from a big or little endian byte array at
|
|
.I buf
|
|
of length
|
|
.I blen
|
|
to an
|
|
.IR mpint .
|
|
If
|
|
.I b
|
|
is not
|
|
.IR nil ,
|
|
it refers to a preallocated
|
|
.I mpint
|
|
for the result.
|
|
If
|
|
.I b
|
|
is
|
|
.BR nil ,
|
|
a new integer is allocated and returned as the result.

.I Crtout
|
|
takes a residue representation of a number and converts it back into
|
|
the number. It also frees the residue structure.

.PP
|
|
.I Crepre
|
|
saves a copy of the factors and precomputes the constants necessary
|
|
for converting the residue form back into a number modulo
|
|
the product of the factors. It returns a newly allocated structure
|
|
containing values.
