In case you want to disable the extra call to + grab entropy, you can call `mbedtls_ctr_drbg_set_nonce_len()` to force the + nonce length to 0. + +Security + * Enforce that `mbedtls_entropy_func()` gathers a total of + `MBEDTLS_ENTROPY_BLOCK_SIZE` bytes or more from strong sources. In the + default configuration, on a platform with a single entropy source, the + entropy module formerly only grabbed 32 bytes, which is good enough for + security if the source is genuinely strong, but less than the expected 64 + bytes (size of the entropy accumulator). + +Features + * Key derivation inputs in the PSA API can now either come from a key object + or from a buffer regardless of the step type. + * The CTR_DRBG module can grab a nonce from the entropy source during the + initial seeding. The default nonce length is chosen based on the key size + to achieve the security strength defined by NIST SP 800-90A. You can + change it with `mbedtls_ctr_drbg_set_nonce_len()`. + * Add ENUMERATED tag support to the ASN.1 module. Contributed by + msopiha-linaro in #307. + +API changes + * In the PSA API, forbid zero-length keys. To pass a zero-length input to a + key derivation function, use a buffer instead (this is now always + possible). + * Rename `psa_asymmetric_sign()` to `psa_sign_hash()` and + `psa_asymmetric_verify()` to `psa_verify_hash()`. + Bugfix * Fix an incorrect size in a debugging message.
