How can I find the source code for scipy.stats.mvn?

Question

I was using the function mvn.mvnun() in the scipy.stats module to calculate the CDF of a given multivariate normal distribution in my paper. The reviewer asked me how I estimated the CDF since the CDF has no closed-form. I guess a sampling method might be used. To find out how it works, I searched the scipy source code repo. However, in the scipy.stats folder, I didn't see mvn.py, I saw mvn.pyf instead.

In the file, mvn.mvnun seems to be defined as follows,

!    -*- f90 -*-
! Note: the context of this file is case sensitive.

python module mvn ! in 
    interface  ! in :mvn
        subroutine mvnun(d,n,lower,upper,means,covar,maxpts,abseps,releps,value,inform) ! in :mvn:mvndst.f
            integer intent(hide) :: d=shape(means,0)
            integer intent(hide) :: n=shape(means,1)
            double precision dimension(d) :: lower
            double precision dimension(d) :: upper
            double precision dimension(d,n) :: means
            double precision dimension(d,d) :: covar
            integer intent(optional) :: maxpts=d*1000
            double precision intent(optional) :: abseps=1e-6
            double precision intent(optional) :: releps=1e-6
            double precision intent(out) :: value
            integer intent(out) :: inform
        end subroutine mvnun

However, there is no detailed definition of that function. I was wondering where I can find the source code for mvnun that informs me how it calculates the CDF?

The implementation is written in Fortran. That pyf file defines the interface for the Fortran function in mvndst.f
