key ASN1 handling through a single EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD structure and move
the spaghetti algorithm specific code to a single ASN1 module for each
algorithm.
- hide the EC_KEY structure definition in ec_lcl.c + add
some functions to use/access the EC_KEY fields
- change the way how method specific data (ecdsa/ecdh) is
attached to a EC_KEY
- add ECDSA_sign_ex and ECDSA_do_sign_ex functions with
additional parameters for pre-computed values
- rebuild libeay.num from 0.9.7

LEVITTE_after_const. Those will be removed when this change has been
properly reviewed.
bad, so let's not check OPENSSL_NO_ENGINE in those places. Fortunately, all
the header files where the problem existed include ossl_typ.h, which makes
a 'forward declaration' of the ENGINE type.
evp.h.
Application authors BEWARE! If you have had the habit to count on
evp.h to provide all those lower-level algorithm functions, you need
to think again! Please change your programs NOW, or you will be sorry
when 0.9.8 gets release (it's quite some time away...).
was that they weren't really needed any more for EVP itself. However,
it seems like soma applications (I know about OpenSSH, but there may
be more) used evp.h as the 'load all' header file, which makes sense
since we try our best to promote the use of EVP instead of the lower
level crypto algorithms. Therefore, I put the inclusions back so
the application authors don't get too shocked by all the errors they
would otherwise get.
Thanks to Theo de Raadt for making us aware of this.
See crypto/engine/README for details.
- it also removes openbsd_hw.c from the build (that functionality is
going to be available in the openbsd ENGINE in a upcoming commit)
- evp_test has had the extra initialisation added so it will use (if
possible) any ENGINEs supporting the algorithms required.
distinction (which does not work well because if CRYPTO_MDEBUG is
defined at library compile time, it is not necessarily defined at
application compile time; and memory debugging now can be reconfigured
at run-time anyway). To get the intended semantics, we could just use
the EVP_DigestInit_dbg unconditionally (which uses the caller's
__FILE__ and __LINE__ for memory leak debugging), but this would make
memory debugging inconsistent. Instead, callers can use
CRYPTO_push_info() to track down memory leaks.
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.
was a really bad idea. For example, the following:
#include <x509.h>
#include <bio.h>
#include <asn1.h>
would make sure that things like ASN1_UTCTIME_print() wasn't defined
unless you moved the inclusion of bio.h to above the inclusion of
x509.h. The reason is that x509.h includes asn1.h, and the
declaration of ASN1_UTCTIME_print() depended on the definition of
HEADER_BIO_H. That's what I call an obscure bug.
Instead, this change makes sure that whatever header files are needed
for the correct process of one header file are included automagically,
and that the definitions of, for example, BIO-related things are
dependent on the absence of the NO_{foo} macros. This is also
consistent with the way parts of OpenSSL can be excluded at will.
Change EVP_SealInit() and EVP_OpenInit() to
handle cipher parameters.
Make it possible to set RC2 and RC5 params.
Make RC2 ASN1 code use the effective key bits
and not the key length.
TODO: document how new API works.
Declare ciphers in terms of macros. This reduces
the amount of code and places each block cipher EVP
definition in a single file instead of being spread
over 4 files.
Change functions like EVP_EncryptUpdate() so they now return a
value. These normally have software only implementations
which cannot fail so this was acceptable. However ciphers
can be implemented in hardware and these could return errors.
enhance and tidy up the EVP interface.
This patch adds initial support for variable length ciphers
and changes S/MIME code to use this.
Some other library functions need modifying to support use
of modified cipher parameters.
Also need to change all the cipher functions that should
return error codes, but currenly don't.
And of course it needs extensive testing...
"Jan Mikkelsen" <janm@transactionsite.com> correctly states that the
OpenSSL header files have #include's and extern "C"'s in an incorrect
order. Thusly fixed.
