After some messing around this seems to work but needs
a few more tests. Working out the syntax for sk_set_cmp_func()
(cast it to a function that itself returns a function pointer)
was painful :-(
Needs some testing to see what other compilers think of this
syntax.
Also needs similar stuff for ASN1_SET_OF etc etc.
same one). However, the first will temporarily break things until the
second comes through. :-)
The safestack.h handling was mapping compare callbacks that externally
are of the type (int (*)(type **,type **)) into the underlying callback
type used by stack.[ch], which is (int (*)(void *,void *)). After some
degree of digging, it appears that the callback type in the underlying
stack code should use double pointers too - when the compare operations
are invoked (from sk_find and sk_sort), they are being used by bsearch
and qsort to compare two pointers to pointers. This change corrects the
prototyping (by only casting to the (void*,void*) form at the moment
it is needed by bsearch and qsort) and makes the mapping in safestack.h
more transparent. It also changes from "void*" to "char*" to stay in
keeping with stack.[ch]'s assumed base type of "char".
Also - the "const" situation was that safestack.h was throwing away
"const"s, and to compound the problem - a close examination of stack.c
showed that (const char **) is not really achieving what it is supposed
to when the callback is being invoked, what is needed is
(const char * const *). So the underlying stack.[ch] and the mapping
macros in safestack.h have all been altered to correct this.
What will follow are the vast quantities of "const" corrections required
in stack-dependant code that was being let "slip" through when
safestack.h was discarding "const"s. These now all come up as compiler
warnings.
cast their type-specific STACK into a real STACK and call the underlying
sk_*** function. The problem is that if the STACK_OF(..) parameter being
passed in has a "const *" qualifier, it is discarded by the cast.
I'm currently implementing a fix for this but in the mean-time, this is
one case I noticed (a few type-specific sk_**_num() functions pass in
const type-specific stacks). If there are other errors in the code where
consts are being discarded, we will similarly not notice them. yuck.
Extend the X509_PURPOSE structure to include shortnames for purposed and default
trust ids.
Still need some extendable trust checking code and integration with the SSL and
S/MIME code.
