when reading from a non blocking BIO.
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.
