Subject: Re: Error in v3_purp.c
]
Split private key PEM and normal PEM handling. Private key
handling needs to link in stuff like PKCS#8.
Relocate the ASN1 *_dup() functions, to the relevant ASN1
modules using new macro IMPLEMENT_ASN1_DUP_FUNCTION. Previously
these were all in crypto/x509/x_all.c along with every ASN1
BIO/fp function which linked in *every* ASN1 function if
a single dup was used.
Move the authority key id ASN1 structure to a separate file.
This is used in the X509 routines and its previous location
linked in all the v3 extension code.
Also move ASN1_tag2bit to avoid linking in a_bytes.c which
is now largely obsolete.
So far under Linux stripped binary with single PEM_read_X509
is now 238K compared to 380K before these changes.
Add new extension functions which work with NCONF.
Tidy up extension config routines and remove redundant code.
Fix NCONF_get_number().
Todo: more testing of apps to see they still work...
the 'ca' utility. This can now be extensively
customised in the configuration file and handles
multibyte strings and extensions properly.
This is required when extensions copying from
certificate requests is supported: the user
must be able to view the extensions before
allowing a certificate to be issued.
change the way ASN1 modules are exported.
Still needs a bit of work for example the hack which a
dummy function prototype to avoid compilers warning about
multiple ;s.
and make all files the depend on it include it without prefixing it
with openssl/.
This means that all Makefiles will have $(TOP) as one of the include
directories.
sure they are available in opensslconf.h, by giving them names starting
with "OPENSSL_" to avoid conflicts with other packages and by making
sure e_os2.h will cover all platform-specific cases together with
opensslconf.h.
I've checked fairly well that nothing breaks with this (apart from
external software that will adapt if they have used something like
NO_KRB5), but I can't guarantee it completely, so a review of this
change would be a good thing.
certificates.
One is a valid CA which has no basicConstraints
but does have certSign keyUsage.
Other is S/MIME signer with nonRepudiation but
no digitalSignature.
Set correct type in ASN1_STRING for
INTEGER and ENUMERATED types.
Make ASN1_INTEGER_get() and ASN1_ENUMERATED_get()
return -1 for invalid type rather than 0 (which is
often valid). -1 may also be valid but this is less
likely.
Load OCSP error strings in ERR_load_crypto_strings().
Remove extensions argument from various functions
because it is not needed with the new extension
code.
New function OCSP_cert_to_id() to convert a pair
of certificates into an OCSP_CERTID.
New simple OCSP HTTP function. This is rather primitive
but just about adequate to send OCSP requests and
parse the response.
Fix typo in CRL distribution points extension.
Fix ASN1 code so it adds a final null to constructed
strings.
Don't try to print request certificates if signature is not present.
Remove unnecessary test for certificates being NULL.
Fix typos in printed output.
Tidy up output.
Fix for typo in OCSP_SERVICELOC ASN1 template.
Also give a bit more info in CHANGES about the ASN1 revision.
from the print routines.
Reorganisation of OCSP code: initial print routines in ocsp_prn.c. Doesn't
work fully because OCSP extensions aren't reimplemented yet.
Implement some ASN1 functions needed to compile OCSP code.
for its ASN1 operations as well as the old style function
pointers (i2d, d2i, new, free). Change standard extensions
to support this.
Fix a warning in BN_mul(), bn_mul.c about uninitialised 'j'.
