* Helper function that does the slow primality test.
* bn is the input bignum; a and e are temporary buffers that are
* allocated by the caller to save overhead.
*
* Returns 0 if prime, >0 if not prime, and -1 on error (out of memory).
* If not prime, returns the number of modular exponentiations performed.
* Calls the given progress function with a '*' for each primality test
* that is passed.
*
* The testing consists of strong pseudoprimality tests, to the bases given
* in the confirm[] array above. (Also called Miller-Rabin, although that's
* not technically correct if we're using fixed bases.) Some people worry
* that this might not be enough. Number theorists may wish to generate
* primality proofs, but for random inputs, this returns non-primes with
* a probability which is quite negligible, which is good enough.
*
* It has been proved (see Carl Pomerance, "On the Distribution of
* Pseudoprimes", Math. Comp. v.37 (1981) pp. 587-593) that the number of
* pseudoprimes (composite numbers that pass a Fermat test to the base 2)
* less than x is bounded by:
* exp(ln(x)^(5/14)) <= P_2(x) ### CHECK THIS FORMULA - it looks wrong! ###
* P_2(x) <= x * exp(-1/2 * ln(x) * ln(ln(ln(x))) / ln(ln(x))).
* Thus, the local density of Pseudoprimes near x is at most
* exp(-1/2 * ln(x) * ln(ln(ln(x))) / ln(ln(x))), and at least
* exp(ln(x)^(5/14) - ln(x)). Here are some values of this function
* for various k-bit numbers x = 2^k:
* Bits Density <= Bit equivalent Density >= Bit equivalent
* 128 3.577869e-07 21.414396 4.202213e-37 120.840190
* 192 4.175629e-10 31.157288 4.936250e-56 183.724558
* 256 5.804314e-13 40.647940 4.977813e-75 246.829095
* 384 1.578039e-18 59.136573 3.938861e-113 373.400096
* 512 5.858255e-24 77.175803 2.563353e-151 500.253110
* 768 1.489276e-34 112.370944 7.872825e-228 754.422724
* 1024 6.633188e-45 146.757062 1.882404e-304 1008.953565
*
* As you can see, there's quite a bit of slop between these estimates.
* In fact, the density of pseudoprimes is conjectured to be closer to the
* square of that upper bound. E.g. the density of pseudoprimes of size
* 256 is around 3 * 10^-27. The density of primes is very high, from
* 0.005636 at 256 bits to 0.001409 at 1024 bits, i.e. more than 10^-3.
*
* For those people used to cryptographic levels of security where the
* 56 bits of DES key space is too small because it's exhaustible with
* custom hardware searching engines, note that you are not generating
* 50,000,000 primes per second on each of 56,000 custom hardware chips
* for several hours. The chances that another Dinosaur Killer asteroid
* will land today is about 10^-11 or 2^-36, so it would be better to
* spend your time worrying about *that*. Well, okay, there should be
* some derating for the chance that astronomers haven't seen it yet,
* but I think you get the idea. For a good feel about the probability
* of various events, I have heard that a good book is by E'mile Borel,
* "Les Probabilite's et la vie". (The 's are accents, not apostrophes.)
*
* For more on the subject, try "Finding Four Million Large Random Primes",
* by Ronald Rivest, in Advancess in Cryptology: Proceedings of Crypto
* '90. He used a small-divisor test, then a Fermat test to the base 2,
* and then 8 iterations of a Miller-Rabin test. About 718 million random
* 256-bit integers were generated, 43,741,404 passed the small divisor
* test, 4,058,000 passed the Fermat test, and all 4,058,000 passed all
* 8 iterations of the Miller-Rabin test, proving their primality beyond
* most reasonable doubts.
*
* If the probability of getting a pseudoprime is some small p, then the
* probability of not getting it in t trials is (1-p)^t. Remember that,
* for small p, (1-p)^(1/p) ~ 1/e, the base of natural logarithms.
* (This is more commonly expressed as e = lim_{x\to\infty} (1+1/x)^x.)
* Thus, (1-p)^t ~ e^(-p*t) = exp(-p*t). So the odds of being able to
* do this many tests without seeing a pseudoprime if you assume that
* p = 10^-6 (one in a million) is one in 57.86. If you assume that
* p = 2*10^-6, it's one in 3347.6. So it's implausible that the density
* of pseudoprimes is much more than one millionth the density of primes.
*
* He also gives a theoretical argument that the chance of finding a
* 256-bit non-prime which satisfies one Fermat test to the base 2 is
* less than 10^-22. The small divisor test improves this number, and
* if the numbers are 512 bits (as needed for a 1024-bit key) the odds
* of failure shrink to about 10^-44. Thus, he concludes, for practical
* purposes *one* Fermat test to the base 2 is sufficient.

/*
* Now, check that bn is prime. If it passes to the base 2,
* it's prime beyond all reasonable doubt, and everything else
* is just gravy, but it gives people warm fuzzies to do it.
*
* This starts with verifying Euler's criterion for a base of 2.
* This is the fastest pseudoprimality test that I know of,
* saving a modular squaring over a Fermat test, as well as
* being stronger. 7/8 of the time, it's as strong as a strong
* pseudoprimality test, too. (The exception being when bn ==
* 1 mod 8 and 2 is a quartic residue, i.e. bn is of the form
* a^2 + (8*b)^2.) The precise series of tricks used here is
* not documented anywhere, so here's an explanation.
* Euler's criterion states that if p is prime then a^((p-1)/2)
* is congruent to Jacobi(a,p), modulo p. Jacobi(a,p) is
* a function which is +1 if a is a square modulo p, and -1 if
* it is not. For a = 2, this is particularly simple. It's
* +1 if p == +/-1 (mod 8), and -1 if m == +/-3 (mod 8).
* If p == 3 mod 4, then all a strong test does is compute
* 2^((p-1)/2). and see if it's +1 or -1. (Euler's criterion
* says *which* it should be.) If p == 5 (mod 8), then
* 2^((p-1)/2) is -1, so the initial step in a strong test,
* looking at 2^((p-1)/4), is wasted - you're not going to
* find a +/-1 before then if it *is* prime, and it shouldn't
* have either of those values if it isn't. So don't bother.
*
* The remaining case is p == 1 (mod 8). In this case, we
* expect 2^((p-1)/2) == 1 (mod p), so we expect that the
* square root of this, 2^((p-1)/4), will be +/-1 (mod p).
* Evaluating this saves us a modular squaring 1/4 of the time.
* If it's -1, a strong pseudoprimality test would call p
* prime as well. Only if the result is +1, indicating that
* 2 is not only a quadratic residue, but a quartic one as well,
* does a strong pseudoprimality test verify more things than
* this test does. Good enough.
*
* We could back that down another step, looking at 2^((p-1)/8)
* if there was a cheap way to determine if 2 were expected to
* be a quartic residue or not. Dirichlet proved that 2 is
* a quartic residue iff p is of the form a^2 + (8*b^2).
* All primes == 1 (mod 4) can be expressed as a^2 + (2*b)^2,
* but I see no cheap way to evaluate this condition.
