- 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
is made to directly cast a function of one type to what it considers and
incompatible type. In particular gcc 3.4.2.
Add new openssl_fcast macro to place functions into a form where the compiler
will allow them to be cast.
The current version achives this by casting to: void function(void).
functions and macros.
This change has associated tags: LEVITTE_before_const and
LEVITTE_after_const. Those will be removed when this change has been
properly reviewed.
Use BUF_strlcat() instead of strcat().
Use BIO_snprintf() instead of sprintf().
In some cases, keep better track of buffer lengths.
This is part of a large change submitted by Markus Friedl <markus@openbsd.org>
I have tried to convert 'len' type variable declarations to unsigned as a
means to address these warnings when appropriate, but when in doubt I have
used casts in the comparisons instead. The better solution (that would get
us all lynched by API users) would be to go through and convert all the
function prototypes and structure definitions to use unsigned variables
except when signed is necessary. The proliferation of (signed) "int" for
strictly non-negative uses is unfortunate.
defined as follows (according to X.509_4thEditionDraftV6.pdf):
CertificatePair ::= SEQUENCE {
forward [0] Certificate OPTIONAL,
reverse [1] Certificate OPTIONAL,
-- at least one of the pair shall be present -- }
The only thing I'm not sure about is if it's implicit or explicit tags
that I should count on. For now, I'm thinking explicit, but will
gladly stand corrected.
Also implement the PEM functions to read and write certificate pairs,
and defined the PEM tag as "CERTIFICATE PAIR".
This needed to be defined, mostly for the sake of the LDAP attribute
crossCertificatePair, but may prove useful elsewhere as well.
(the same keys can be used for ECC schemes other than ECDSA)
and add some new options.
Similarly, use string "EC PARAMETERS" instead of "ECDSA PARAMETERS"
in 'PEM' format.
Fix ec_asn1.c (take into account the desired conversion form).
'make update'.
