Fixes many typos, and errors in comments.
* Clarifies many comments
* Grammar correction in config.pl help text
* Removed comment about MBEDTLS_X509_EXT_NS_CERT_TYPE.
* Comment typo fix (Dont => Don't)
* Comment typo fix (assure => ensure)
* Comment typo fix (byes => bytes)
* Added citation for quoted standard
* Comment typo fix (one complement => 1's complement)
The is some debate about whether to prefer "one's complement", "ones'
complement", or "1's complement". The more recent RFCs related to TLS
(RFC 6347, RFC 4347, etc) use " 1's complement", so I followed that
convention.
* Added missing ")" in comment
* Comment alignment
* Incorrect comment after #endif
Fix implementation and documentation missmatch for the function
arguments to mbedtls_gcm_finish(). Also, removed redundant if condition
that always evaluates to true.
Minor fixes following review including:
* formatting changes including indentation and code style
* corrections
* removal of debug code
* clarification of code through variable renaming
* memory leak
* compiler warnings
Change the CMAC interface to match the mbedtls_md_hmac_xxxx() interface. This
changes the overall design of the CMAC interface to make it more consistent with
the existing HMAC interface, and will allow incremental updates of input data
rather than requiring all data to be presented at once, which is what the
current interface requires.
The library/net.c and its corresponding include/mbedtls/net.h file are
renamed to library/net_sockets.c and include/mbedtls/net_sockets.h
respectively. This is to avoid naming collisions in projects which also
have files with the common name 'net'.
Allow the size of the entry_name character array in x509_crt.c to be
configurable through a macro in config.h. entry_name holds a
path/filename string. The macro introduced in
MBEDTLS_X509_MAX_FILE_PATH_LEN.
Ensure that the entropy self test always fails whenever
MBEDTLS_TEST_NULL_ENTROPY is defined. This is because the option is
meant to be for testing and development purposes rather than production
quality software. Also, this patch enhances the documentation for
mbedtls_entropy_source_self_test() and mbedtls_entropy_self_test().
Instead of polling the hardware entropy source a single time and
comparing the output with itself, the source is polled at least twice
and make sure that the separate outputs are different.
The self test is a quick way to check at startup whether the entropy
sources are functioning correctly. The self test only polls 8 bytes
from the default entropy source and performs the following checks:
- The bytes are not all 0x00 or 0xFF.
- The hardware does not return an error when polled.
- The entropy does not provide data in a patter. Only check pattern
at byte, word and long word sizes.
* Check time platform abstraction macro definitions
This patch adds some checks to check_config.h to ensure that macro
definitions for the time platform abstraction are acceptable. In this
case the requirements are:
- MBEDTLS_PLATFORM_C and MBEDTLS_HAVE_TIME must be defined whenever
MBEDTLS_PLATFORM_TIME_ALT, MBEDTLS_PLATFORM_TIME_TYPE_MACRO or
MBEDTLS_PLATFORM_TIME_MACRO is defined.
- MBEDTLS_PLATFORM_STD_TIME and MBEDTLS_PLATFORM_TIME_ALT cannot be
defined simultaneously with MBEDTLS_PLATFORM_TIME_TYPE_MACRO or
MBEDTLS_PLATFORM_TIME_MACRO.
- MBEDTLS_HAVE_TIME and MBEDTLS_PLATFORM_TIME_ALT must be defined
whenever MBEDTLS_PLATFORM_STD_TIME is defined.
* Document requirements for time abstraction macros
Document that time platform abstraction macros
MBEDTLS_PLATFORM_TIME_ALT, MBEDTLS_PLATFORM_TIME_MACRO,
MBEDTLS_PLATFORM_TIME_TYPE_MACRO and MBEDTLS_PLATFORM_STD_TIME require
MBEDTLS_HAVE_TIME to be defined in config.h.
* Fix requires comment in config.h
* Split preprocessor condition for simplicity
Separates platform time abstraction into it's own header from the
general platform abstraction as both depend on different build options.
(MBEDTLS_PLATFORM_C vs MBEDTLS_HAVE_TIME)
target_config.h is no longer needed for target/platform configurations so
this change removes it from the default and platform configurations for mbed
builds.
Update the NV entropy seed before generating any entropy for outside
use. The reason this is triggered here and not in mbedtls_entropy_init(),
is that not all entropy sources mights have been added at that time.
Introduces mbedtls_nv_seed_read() and mbedtls_nv_seed_write().
The platform-layer functions are only available when
MBEDTLS_ENTROPY_NV_SEED is enabled.
Add a switch that turns entropy collecting off entirely, but enables
mbed TLS to run in an entirely unsafe mode. Enables to test mbed TLS
on platforms that don't have their entropy sources integrated yet.
On x32, pointers are only 4-bytes wide and need to be loaded using the "movl"
instruction instead of "movq" to avoid loading garbage into the register.
The MULADDC routines for x86-64 are adjusted to work on x32 as well by getting
gcc to load all the registers for us in advance (and storing them later) by
using better register constraints. The b, c, D and S constraints correspond to
the rbx, rcx, rdi and rsi registers respectively.
The callback typedefs defined for mbedtls_ssl_set_bio() and
mbedtls_ssl_set_timer_cb() were not used consistently where the callbacks were
referenced in structures or in code.
- document why we made that choice
- remove the two TODOs about checking hash and CA
- remove the code that parsed certificate_type: it did nothing except store
the selected type in handshake->cert_type, but that field was never accessed
afterwards. Since handshake_params is now an internal type, we can remove that
field without breaking the ABI.
Previously it was failing with errors about headers not found, which is
suboptimal in terms of clarity. Now give a clean error with pointer to the
documentation.
Do the checks in the .c files rather than check_config.h as it keeps them
closer to the platform-specific implementations.
