GNU ld comes first, checking the usage of collect2 gives that instead of
GNU ld, even if GNU ld would be the one that would get used if we link using
gcc. It's much better, apparently, to ask gcc directly what the path to
GNU ld is (provided it's there at all and gcc knows about it), and ask
the result if it's a GNU or not. The bonus is that our GNU ld detection
mechanism got shorter and easier to understand...

argument list length. This requires Gnu-tar. As we use the non-standard
"tardy" software anyway, it doesn't hurt too much to require Gnu-tar.
"make dist" will probably only be used by team-members anyway.
crypto/rijndael. Additionally, I applied the AES integration patch
from Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and fiddled it to work
properly with the normal EVP constructs (and incidently work the same
way as all other symmetric cipher implementations).
This results in an API that looks a lot like the rest of the OpenSSL
cipher suite.
sooner and the programs get built against the shared libraries.
This requires a bit more work. Things like -rpath and the possibility
to still link the programs statically should be included. Some
cleanup is also needed. This will be worked on.
used or not, let's ask collect2 which ld it uses and choose to use the
target do-gnu_shared if GNU ld is used.
This solves the reported problems on Solaris systems where GNU cc is
used but GNU ld isn't, and probably on other systems with similar
setups.
His comments are:
1) Changes all references for `True64' to be `Tru64', which is the correct
spelling for the OS name.
2) Makes `alpha-cc' be the same as `alpha164-cc', and adds an `alphaold-cc'
entry that is the same as the previous `alpha-cc'. The reason is that most
people these days are using the newer compiler, so it should be the default.
3) Adds a bit of commentary to Configure, regarding the name changes of
the OS over the years, so it's not so confusing to people that haven't been
with the OS for a while.
4) Adds an `alpha-cc-rpath' target (which is *not* selected automatically
by Configure under any circumstance) that builds an RPATH into the
shared libraries. This is explained in the comment in Configure. It's
very very useful for people that want it, and people that don't want it
just shouldn't choose that target.
5) Adds the `-pthread' flag as the best way to get POSIX thread support
from the newer compiler.
6) Updates the Makefile targets, so that when the `alpha164-cc', `alpha-cc',
or `alpha-cc-rpath' target is what Configure is set to use, it uses a Makefile
target that includes the `-msym' option when building the shared library.
This is a performance enhancement.
7) Updates `config' so that if it detects you're running version 4 or 5
of the OS, it automatically selects `alpha-cc', but uses `alphaold-cc'
for versions 1-3 of the OS.
8) Updates the comment in opensslv.h, fixing both the OS name typo and
adding a reference to IRIX 6.x, since the shared library semantics are
virtually identical there.
SSL according to RFC 2712. His comment is:
This is a patch to openssl-SNAP-20010702 to support Kerberized SSL
authentication. I'm expecting to have the full kssl-0.5 kit up on
sourceforge by the end of the week. The full kit includes patches
for mod-ssl, apache, and a few text clients. The sourceforge URL
is http://sourceforge.net/projects/kssl/ .
Thanks to a note from Simon Wilkinson I've replaced my KRB5 AP_REQ
message with a real KerberosWrapper struct. I think this is fully
RFC 2712 compliant now, including support for the optional
authenticator field. I also added openssl-style ASN.1 macros for
a few Kerberos structs; see crypto/krb5/ if you're interested.
like des_read_password and friends (backward compatibility functions
using this new API are provided). The purpose is to remove prompting
functions from the DES code section as well as provide for prompting
through dialog boxes in a window system and the like.
abort with errors if no name is defined for some object, which was the
case for 'pilotAttributeType 27'.
Also avoid this very situation by assigning the name
'pilotAttributeType27'.
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.
For performance reasons, it is also recommended to make the (mmap'ed)
shared library 'read-only'.
-> New permissions for installed shared libraries = 555
This doesn't hurt anybody, provided the installation is performed with
'cp -f' :-)
"-Wl,+s" instead of +s:
* Hardcoded necessary references to -ldld/-ldl into the build rules and
removed EX_LIBS.
HP-UX records the pathnames of dependent libraries when the shared libs
are built, so that ./libcrypto.sl... is recorded in libssl.sl..., with
"./" not being resolvable when running an application linked against -lssl:
* Build libssl without explicit reference to libcrypto, applications will
be linked with "-lssl -lcrypto" anyway.
Document these informations in Makefile.org.
full version number and not just 0. This should mark the shared
libraries as not backward compatible. Of course, this should be
changed again when we can guarantee backward binary compatibility.
ld warns that -Fl "may not be supported in future releases". We know
that, and are doing things in HP-UX 11 (64bit), so turn off that
warning with +vnocompatwarnings.
- Make note of the expected extension for the shared libraries and
if there is a need for symbolic links from for example libcrypto.so.0
to libcrypto.so.0.9.7. There is extended info in Configure for
that.
- Make as few rebuilds of the shared libraries as possible.
- Still avoid linking the OpenSSL programs with the shared libraries.
- When installing, install the shared libraries separately from the
static ones.
1. make sure libssl.so becomes dependent on libcrypto.so
2. correct a number of silly bugs in the solaris-shared target, and make
sure lib*.so also depends on libc.so.
there's support for building under Linux and True64 (using examples
from the programming manuals), including versioning that is currently
the same as OpenSSL versions but should really be a different series.
With this change, it's up to the users to decide if they want shared
libraries as well as the static ones. This decision now has to be
done at configuration time (well, not really, those who know what they
do can still do it the same way as before).
The OpenSSL programs (openssl and the test programs) are currently
always linked statically, but this may change in the future in a
configurable manner. The necessary makefile variables to enable this
are in place.
Also note that I have done absolutely nothing about the Windows target
to get something similar. On the other hand, DLLs are already the
default there, but without versioning, and I've no idea what the
possibilities for such a thing are there...
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.
sk_whatever_insert and sk_whatever_set immediately reveals the subtle
difference in parameter order.
Change mkstack.pl so that safestack.h is not rewritten when
nothing has changed.
structures and functions for each stack type. The previous behaviour
can be enabled by configuring with the "-DDEBUG_SAFESTACK" option.
This will also cause "make update" (mkdef.pl in particular) to
update the libeay.num and ssleay.num symbol tables with the number of
extra functions DEBUG_SAFESTACK creates.
The way this change works is to accompany each DECLARE_STACK_OF()
macro with a set of "#define"d versions of the sk_##type##_***
functions that ensures all the existing "type-safe" stack calls are
precompiled into the underlying stack calls. The presence or abscence
of the DEBUG_SAFESTACK symbol controls whether this block of
"#define"s or the DECLARE_STACK_OF() macro is taking effect. The
block of "#define"s is in turn generated and maintained by a perl
script (util/mkstack.pl) that encompasses the block with delimiting
C comments. This works in a similar way to the auto-generated error
codes and, like the other such maintenance utilities, is invoked
by the "make update" target.
A long (but mundane) commit will follow this with the results of
"make update" - this will include all the "#define" blocks for
each DECLARE_STACK_OF() statement, along with stripped down
libeay.num and ssleay.num files.
variety of platforms. A few are missing, and they will be added in
eventually, but as this is new stuff, it was better to not break lots of
platforms in one go that we can't easily test. The changes to "Configure"
should illustrate how to add support to other systems if you feel like
having a go.
NB: I'll add something shortly to allow you to add "dlfcn.h" support on
those platforms that don't have (or need) a dlfcn.h header file. (The
symbol for Configure will probably by "dlfcn_no_h").
Thanks to Richard Levitte, who is responsible for the dso_dl.c support,
understanding the trickier aspects of the build process, and giving great
feedback on everything else.
[Don't use this stuff if you're easily offended by changes to the
interface or behaviour - it's still work in progress.]
PR:
in cryptlib.h (which is often included as "../cryptlib.h"), then the
question remains relative to which directory this is to be interpreted.
gcc went one further directory up, as intended; but makedepend thinks
differently, and so probably do some C compilers. So the ../ must go away;
thus e_os.h goes back into include/openssl (but I now use
#include "openssl/e_os.h" instead of <openssl/e_os.h> to make the point) --
and we have another huge bunch of dependency changes. Argh.
