des_old.h redefines crypt:
#define crypt(b,s)\
DES_crypt((b),(s))
This scheme leads to failure, if header files with the OS's true definition
of crypt() are processed _after_ des_old.h was processed. This is e.g. the
case on HP-UX with unistd.h.
As evp.h now again includes des.h (which includes des_old.h), this problem
only came up after this modification.
Solution: move header files (indirectly) including e_os.h before the header
files (indirectly) including evp.h.

pointers passed to them whenever necessary. Otherwise it is possible the
caller may have overwritten (or deallocated) the original string data
when a later ENGINE operation tries to use the stored values.

ENGINE_TABLE-based stuff - as described in crypto/engine/README.
Associated miscellaneous changes;
- the previous cipher/digest hooks that hardwired directly to EVP's
OBJ_NAME-based storage have been backed out. New cipher/digest support
has been constructed and will be committed shortly.
- each implementation defines its own ENGINE_load_<name> function now.
- the "openssl" ENGINE isn't needed or loaded any more.
- core (not algorithm or class specific) ENGINE code has been split into
multiple files to increase readability and decrease linker bloat.
- ENGINE_cpy() has been removed as it wasn't really a good idea in the
first place and now, because of registration issues, can't be
meaningfully defined any more.
- BN_MOD_EXP[_CRT] support is removed as per the README.
- a bug in enginetest.c has been fixed.
NB: This commit almost certainly breaks compilation until subsequent
changes are committed.
error strings - the destroy handler functions unload the error strings so
any pending error state referring to them will not attempt to reference
them after the ENGINE has been destroyed.
declare their own error strings so that they can be more easily compiled as
external shared-libraries if desired. Also, each implementation has been
given canonical "dynamic" support at the base of each file and is only
built if the ENGINE_DYNAMIC_SUPPORT symbol is defined.
Also, use "void" prototypes rather than empty prototypes in engine_int.h.
This does not yet;
(i) remove error strings when unloading,
(ii) remove the redundant ENGINE_R_*** codes (though ENGINE_F_*** codes
have gone), or
(iii) provide any instructions on how to build shared-library ENGINEs or
use them.
All are on their way.
with arbitrary arguments instead of just a string.
- Change the key loaders to take a UI_METHOD instead of a callback
function pointer. NOTE: this breaks binary compatibility with
earlier versions of OpenSSL [engine].
- Addapt the nCipher code for these new conditions and add a card
insertion callback.
passwords that were given to the key loading functions were completely
ignored, at least in the ncipher code, and then we made the assumption
that the callback wanted a prompt as user argument.
All that is now changed, and the application author is forced to give
a callback function of type pem_callback_cb and possibly an argument
for it, just as for all other functions that want to generate password
prompting.
NOTE: this change creates binary and source incompatibilities with
previous versions of OpenSSL [engine]. It's worth it this time, to
get it right (or at least better and with a chance that it'll work).
This change adds some basic control commands to the existing ENGINEs
(except the software 'openssl' engine). All these engines currently load
shared-libraries for hardware APIs, so they've all been given "SO_PATH"
commands that will configure the chosen ENGINE to load its shared library
from the given path. Eg. by calling;
ENGINE_ctrl_cmd_string(e, "SO_PATH", <path>, 0).
The nCipher 'chil' ENGINE has also had "FORK_CHECK" and "THREAD_LOCKING"
commands added so these settings could be handled via application-level
configuration rather than in application source code.
Changes to "openssl engine" to test and examine these control commands will
be made shortly. It will also provide the necessary tips to application
programs wanting to support these dynamic control commands.
The existing ENGINEs (including the default 'openssl' software engine) were
static, declared inside the source file for each engine implementation. The
reason this was not going boom was that all the ENGINEs had reference
counts that never hit zero (once linked into the internal list, each would
always have at least 1 lasting structural reference).
To fix this so it will stay standing when an "unload" function is added to
match ENGINE_load_builtin_engines(), the "constructor" functions for each
ENGINE implementation have been changed to dynamically allocate and
construct their own ENGINEs using API functions. The other benefit of this
is that no ENGINE implementation has to include the internal "engine_int.h"
header file any more.
ENGINE handler functions should take the ENGINE structure as a parameter -
this is because ENGINE structures can be copied, and like other
structure/method setups in OpenSSL, it should be possible for init(),
finish(), ctrl(), etc to adjust state inside the ENGINE structures rather
than globally. This commit includes the dependant changes in the ENGINE
implementations.
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.
