around them.
NOTE: because two new locks are added, this adds potential binary
incompatibility with earlier versions in the 0.9.7 series. However,
those locks will only ever be touched when FIPS_mode_set() is called
and after, thanks to a variable that's only changed from 0 to 1 once
(when FIPS_mode_set() is called). So basically, as long as FIPS mode
hasn't been engaged explicitely by the calling application, the new
locks are treated as if they didn't exist at all, thus not becoming a
problem. Applications that are built or rebuilt to use FIPS
functionality will need to be recompiled in any case, thus not being a
problem either.
OpenSSL-fips-0_9_7-stable.
Since the 0.9.7-stable branch is supposed to be in freeze and should
only contain bug corrections, this change removes the FIPS changes
from that branch.
ENGINE surgery. DH, DSA, RAND, and RSA now use *both* "method" and ENGINE
pointers to manage their hooking with ENGINE. Previously their use of
"method" pointers was replaced by use of ENGINE references. See
crypto/engine/README for details.
Also, remove the ENGINE iterations from evp_test - even when the
cipher/digest code is committed in, this functionality would require a
different set of API calls.
Previously RAND_get_rand_method was returning a non-const pointer, but it
should be const. As with all other such cases, METHOD pointers are stored and
returned as "const". The only methods one should be able to alter are methods
"local" to the relevant code, in which case a non-const handle to the methods
should already exist.
This change has been forced by the constifying of the ENGINE code (before
which RAND_METHOD was the only method pointer in an ENGINE structure that was
not constant).
returns int (1 = ok, 0 = not seeded). New function RAND_add() is the
same as RAND_seed() but takes an estimate of the entropy as an additional
argument.
This will soon be complemented with MacOS specific source code files and
INSTALL.MacOS.
I (Andy) have decided to get rid of a number of #include <sys/types.h>.
I've verified it's ok (both by examining /usr/include/*.h and compiling)
on a number of Unix platforms. Unfortunately I don't have Windows box
to verify this on. I really appreciate if somebody could try to compile
it and contact me a.s.a.p. in case a problem occurs.
