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.
Make ca.c correctly initialize the revocation date.
Make ASN1_UTCTIME_set_string() and ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_set_string() set the
string type: so they can initialize ASN1_TIME structures properly.
like Malloc, Realloc and especially Free conflict with already existing names
on some operating systems or other packages. That is reason enough to change
the names of the OpenSSL memory allocation macros to something that has a
better chance of being unique, like prepending them with OPENSSL_.
This change includes all the name changes needed throughout all C files.
GeneralizedTime. At several points PKIX specifies that GeneralizedTime can be
used but OpenSSL doesn't currently support it. This patch adds several files
and a bunch of functions.
Of interest is the ASN1_TIME structure and its related functions. At several
points certificates, CRLs et al specify that a time can be expressed as a
choice of UTCTime and GeneralizedTime. Currently OpenSSL interprets this
(wrongly) as UTCTime because GeneralizedTime isn't supported. The ASN1_TIME
stuff provides this functionality.
Still todo is to trace which cert and CRL points need an ASN1_TIME and modify
the utilities appropriately and of course fix all the bugs.
Note new OpenSSL copyright in the new file a_time.c. I didn't put it in
a_gentm.c because it is a minimally modified form a_utctm.c .
Since this adds new files and error codes you will need to do a 'make errors'
at the top level to add the new codes.
