In the following program, the results of addm, subm or mulm are all zero,
but should be 6, 5 and 1, respectively.
#include <gcrypt.h>
#define CF_CHECK_EQ(expr, res) if ( (expr) != (res) ) { goto end; }
int main(void)
{
gcry_mpi_t A;
gcry_mpi_t B;
gcry_mpi_t C;
gcry_error_t err;
char *buf;
CF_CHECK_EQ(err = gcry_mpi_scan(&A, GCRYMPI_FMT_HEX, "2", 0, NULL), 0);
CF_CHECK_EQ(err = gcry_mpi_scan(&B, GCRYMPI_FMT_HEX, "4", 0, NULL), 0);
CF_CHECK_EQ(err = gcry_mpi_scan(&C, GCRYMPI_FMT_HEX, "7", 0, NULL), 0);
gcry_mpi_addm(C, A, B, C);
//gcry_mpi_subm(C, A, B, C);
//gcry_mpi_mulm(C, A, B, C);
CF_CHECK_EQ(err = gcry_mpi_aprint(GCRYMPI_FMT_HEX, (unsigned
char**)&buf, NULL, C), 0);
printf("%s\n", buf);
gcry_mpi_release(A);
gcry_mpi_release(B);
gcry_mpi_release(C);
gcry_free(buf);
end:
return 0;
}
