15 * Set up the phase limits for the progress report. We do this
16 * by passing minus the phase number.
18 * For prime generation: our initial filter finds things
19 * coprime to everything below 2^16. Computing the product of
20 * (p-1)/p for all prime p below 2^16 gives about 20.33; so
21 * among B-bit integers, one in every 20.33 will get through
22 * the initial filter to be a candidate prime.
24 * Meanwhile, we are searching for primes in the region of 2^B;
25 * since pi(x) ~ x/log(x), when x is in the region of 2^B, the
26 * prime density will be d/dx pi(x) ~ 1/log(B), i.e. about
27 * 1/0.6931B. So the chance of any given candidate being prime
28 * is 20.33/0.6931B, which is roughly 29.34 divided by B.
30 * So now we have this probability P, we're looking at an
31 * exponential distribution with parameter P: we will manage in
32 * one attempt with probability P, in two with probability
33 * P(1-P), in three with probability P(1-P)^2, etc. The
34 * probability that we have still not managed to find a prime
35 * after N attempts is (1-P)^N.
37 * We therefore inform the progress indicator of the number B
38 * (29.34/B), so that it knows how much to increment by each
39 * time. We do this in 16-bit fixed point, so 29.34 becomes
40 * 0x1D.57C4.

45 pfn(pfnparam, PROGFN_EXP_PHASE, 2, -0x1D57C4 / bits);
48 * In phase three we are finding an order-q element of the
49 * multiplicative group of p, by finding an element whose order
50 * is _divisible_ by q and raising it to the power of (p-1)/q.
51 * _Most_ elements will have order divisible by q, since for a
52 * start phi(p) of them will be primitive roots. So
53 * realistically we don't need to set this much below 1 (64K).
54 * Still, we'll set it to 1/2 (32K) to be on the safe side.

60 * In phase four we are finding an element x between 1 and q-1
61 * (exclusive), by inventing 160 random bits and hoping they
62 * come out to a plausible number; so assuming q is uniformly
63 * distributed between 2^159 and 2^160, the chance of any given
64 * attempt succeeding is somewhere between 0.5 and 1. Lacking
65 * the energy to arrange to be able to specify this probability
66 * _after_ generating q, we'll just set it to 0.75.
