It would incorrectly interpret retries as EOF, incorrectly
buffer initial data and have no buffering at all after initial
data (data would be sent one byte at a time to EVP_DecodeUpdate).
applications, at least on the platforms where it's known how
to do it.
Note: this has only been tested on GNU-based platforms (Linux), and
needs to be tested on all others. Additionally, it's not yet
supported on the following platforms, for lack of information:
Darwin (MacOS X)
Cygwin
OSF1/Alpha
SVR3
ReliantUNIX
Please help out with testing and the platforms we don't yet know well
enough.
where it fails in ASN1_TIME_set().
Edit asn1.h so the new error code is the same in 0.9.7
and 0.9.8, rebuild new error codes.
Clear error queue in req.c if *_min or *_max is absent.
override key-generation implementations by placing handlers in the methods
for DSA and DH. Also, parameter generation for DSA and DH is possible by
another new handler for each method.
key-generation and prime-checking functions. Rather than explicitly passing
callback functions and caller-defined context data for the callbacks, a new
structure BN_GENCB is defined that encapsulates this; a pointer to the
structure is passed to all such functions instead.
This wrapper structure allows the encapsulation of "old" and "new" style
callbacks - "new" callbacks return a boolean result on the understanding
that returning FALSE should terminate keygen/primality processing. The
BN_GENCB abstraction will allow future callback modifications without
needing to break binary compatibility nor change the API function
prototypes. The new API functions have been given names ending in "_ex" and
the old functions are implemented as wrappers to the new ones. The
OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol has been introduced so that, if defined,
declaration of the older functions will be skipped. NB: Some
openssl-internal code will stick with the older callbacks for now, so
appropriate "#undef" logic will be put in place - this is in case the user
is *building* openssl (rather than *including* its headers) with this
symbol defined.
There is another change in the new _ex functions; the key-generation
functions do not return key structures but operate on structures passed by
the caller, the return value is a boolean. This will allow for a smoother
transition to having key-generation as "virtual function" in the various
***_METHOD tables.
length, instead of the encoding length to d2i_ASN1_OBJECT.
This wasn't visible before becuse ASN1_get_object() used
to read past the length of the supplied buffer.
Additional changes:
- use EC_GROUP_get_degree() in apps/req.c
- add ECDSA and ECDH to apps/speed.c
- adds support for EC curves over binary fields to ECDSA
- new function EC_KEY_up_ref() in crypto/ec/ec_key.c
- reorganize crypto/ecdsa/ecdsatest.c
- add engine support for ECDH
- fix a few bugs in ECDSA engine support

the new method names where _GF... suffixes have been removed.
Revert changes to ..._{get/set}_Jprojective_coordinates_...:
The current implementation for ECC over binary fields does not use
projective coordinates, and if it did, it would not use Jacobian
projective coordinates; so it's OK to use the ..._GFp prefix for all
this.
Add author attributions to some files so that it doesn't look
as if Sun wrote all of this :-)
The 'OPENSSL_NO_SUN_DIV' default is still subject to change,
so I didn't bother to finish the CHANGES entry yet.

directory, making a separate directory tree with lots of symbolic links
seems to be the solution. Unfortunately, Configure doesn't take appropriate
steps to support this solution (as in removing a file that's going to be
rewritten). This change corrects that situation. Now I just have to
find all other places where there's lack of support for this.
(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).

caller may have overwritten (or deallocated) the original string data
when a later ENGINE operation tries to use the stored values.
