LibreSSL Portable Release Notes:
2.3.0 - SSLv3 removed, libtls API changes, portability improvements
e
* SSLv3 is now permanently removed from the tree.
* The libtls API is changed from the 2.2.x series.
The read/writte functions work correctly with external event
libraries. See the tls_init man page for examples of using libtls

Client-side verification is now supported, with the client supplying
the certificate to the server.

tls_accept_fds, libtls no longer implicitly closes the passed in
sockets. The caller is responsible for closing them in this case.
* When loading a DSA key from an raw (without DH parameters) ASN.1
serialization, perform some consistency checks on its `p' and `q'
values, and return an error if the checks failed.
Thanks for Georgi Guninski (guninski at guninski dot com) for
mentioning the possibility of a weak (non prime) q value and
providing a test case.
