Start ensuring all OpenSSL "free" routines allow NULL, and remove
any if check before calling them.
This gets DH_free, DSA_free, RSA_free

being built with it defined - it is not a symbol to affect how openssl
itself builds, but to alter the way openssl headers can be used from an API
point of view. The "deprecated" function wrappers will always remain inside
OpenSSL at least as long as they're still being used internally. :-)
The exception is dsaparam which has been updated to the BN_GENCB-based
functions to test the new functionality. If GENCB_TEST is defined, dsaparam
will support a "-timebomb <n>" switch to cancel parameter-generation if it
gets as far as 'n' seconds without completion.
exit() in whatever way works for the intended platform, and define
OPENSSL_EXIT() to have the old meaning (the name is of course because
it's only used in the openssl program)
CONF_modules_unload() now calls CONF_modules_finish()
automatically.
Default use of section openssl_conf moved to
CONF_modules_load()
Load config file in several openssl utilities.
Most utilities now load modules from the config file,
though in a few (such as version) this isn't done
because it couldn't be used for anything.
In the case of ca and req the config file used is
the same as the utility itself: that is the -config
command line option can be used to specify an
alternative file.
to go the monolith way (does anyone do that these days?).
NOTE: a few applications are missing in this commit. I've a few more
changes in them that I haven't tested yet.
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.
record-oriented fashion. That means that every write() will write a
separate record, which will be read separately by the programs trying
to read from it. This can be very confusing.
The solution is to put a BIO filter in the way that will buffer text
until a linefeed is reached, and then write everything a line at a
time, so every record written will be an actual line, not chunks of
lines and not (usually doesn't happen, but I've seen it once) several
lines in one record. Voila, BIO_f_linebuffer() is born.
Since we're so close to release time, I'm making this VMS-only for
now, just to make sure no code is needlessly broken by this. After
the release, this BIO method will be enabled on all other platforms as
well.
like Malloc, Realloc and especially Free conflict with already existing names
on some operating systems or other packages. That is reason enough to change
the names of the OpenSSL memory allocation macros to something that has a
better chance of being unique, like prepending them with OPENSSL_.
This change includes all the name changes needed throughout all C files.
