Similarly, use string "EC PARAMETERS" instead of "ECDSA PARAMETERS"

Fix ec_asn1.c (take into account the desired conversion form).

structures for fields that are not OPTIONAL.
However in the AUTHORITY_INFO_ACCESS case
the 'location' field was set to NULL in
the old code.
So in 0.9.7+ we should free up the field before
overwriting it in v2i_AUTHORITY_INFO_ACCESS.

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'.
The old code was painfully primitive and couldn't handle
distinct certificates using the same subject name.
The new code performs several tests on a candidate issuer
certificate based on certificate extensions.
It also adds several callbacks to X509_VERIFY_CTX so its
behaviour can be customised.
Unfortunately some hackery was needed to persuade X509_STORE
to tolerate this. This should go away when X509_STORE is
replaced, sometime...
This must have broken something though :-(
could be done automagically, much like the numbering in libeay.num and
ssleay.num. The solution works as follows:
- New object identifiers are inserted in objects.txt, following the
syntax given in objects.README.
- objects.pl is used to process obj_mac.num and create a new
obj_mac.h.
- obj_dat.pl is used to create a new obj_dat.h, using the data in
obj_mac.h.
This is currently kind of a hack, and the perl code in objects.pl
isn't very elegant, but it works as I intended. The simplest way to
check that it worked correctly is to look in obj_dat.h and check the
array nid_objs and make sure the objects haven't moved around (this is
important!). Additions are OK, as well as consistent name changes.
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.
Also, "make update" has added some missing functions to libeay.num,
updated the TABLE for the alpha changes, and updated thousands of
dependancies that have changed from recent commits.
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.
yet tighter, and also put some heat on the rest of the library by
insisting (correctly) that compare callbacks used in stacks are prototyped
with "const" parameters. This has led to a depth-first explosion of
compiler warnings in the code where 1 constification has led to 3 or 4
more. Fortunately these have all been resolved to completion and the code
seems cleaner as a result - in particular many of the _cmp() functions
should have been prototyped with "const"s, and now are. There was one
little problem however;
X509_cmp() should by rights compare "const X509 *" pointers, and it is now
declared as such. However, it's internal workings can involve
recalculating hash values and extensions if they have not already been
setup. Someone with a more intricate understanding of the flow control of
X509 might be able to tighten this up, but for now - this seemed the
obvious place to stop the "depth-first" constification of the code by
using an evil cast (they have migrated all the way here from safestack.h).
Fortunately, this is the only place in the code where this was required
to complete these type-safety changes, and it's reasonably clear and
commented, and seemed the least unacceptable of the options. Trying to
take the constification further ends up exploding out considerably, and
indeed leads directly into generalised ASN functions which are not likely
to cooperate well with this.
"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.
new purpose getting function.
Update the ca-cert.pem and pca-cert.pem "CA" certificates so they
really are CA certificate: that is they have the appropriate extensions.
yet.
Add a function X509_STORE_CTX_purpose_inherit() which implements the logic
of "inheriting" purpose and trust from a parent structure and using a default:
this will be used in the SSL code and possibly future S/MIME.
Partial documentation of the 'verify' utility. Still need to document how all
the extension checking works and the various error messages.
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.
