  * \brief Context-independent RSA helper functions
+ *
+ *  This module declares some RSA-related helper functions useful when
+ *  implementing the RSA interface. These functions are provided in a separate
+ *  compilation unit in order to make it easy for designers of alternative RSA
+ *  implementations to use them in their own code, as it is conceived that the
+ *  functionality they provide will be necessary for most complete
+ *  implementations.
+ *
+ *  End-users of Mbed TLS who are not providing their own alternative RSA
+ *  implementations should not use these functions directly, and should instead
+ *  use only the functions declared in rsa.h.
+ *
+ *  The interface provided by this module will be maintained through LTS (Long
+ *  Term Support) branches of Mbed TLS, but may otherwise be subject to change,
+ *  and must be considered an internal interface of the library.
+ *
+ *  There are two classes of helper functions:
+ *
+ *  (1) Parameter-generating helpers. These are:
+ *      - mbedtls_rsa_deduce_primes
+ *      - mbedtls_rsa_deduce_private_exponent
+ *      - mbedtls_rsa_deduce_crt
+ *       Each of these functions takes a set of core RSA parameters and
+ *       generates some other, or CRT related parameters.
+ *
+ *  (2) Parameter-checking helpers. These are:
+ *      - mbedtls_rsa_validate_params
+ *      - mbedtls_rsa_validate_crt
+ *      They take a set of core or CRT related RSA parameters and check their
+ *      validity.
