The intention with no-err + is not to have the whole error stack handling routines removed from + libcrypto, it's only intended to remove all the function name and + reason texts, thereby removing some of the footprint that may not + be interesting if those errors aren't displayed anyway. + + NOTE: it's still possible for any application or module to have it's + own set of error texts inserted. The routines are there, just not + used by default when no-err is given. + [Richard Levitte] + + *) Add support for FreeBSD on IA64. + [dirk.meyer@dinoex.sub.org via Richard Levitte, resolves #454] + + *) Adjust DES_cbc_cksum() so it returns the same value as the MIT + Kerberos function mit_des_cbc_cksum(). Before this change, + the value returned by DES_cbc_cksum() was like the one from + mit_des_cbc_cksum(), except the bytes were swapped. + [Kevin Greaney <Kevin.Greaney@hp.com> and Richard Levitte] + + *) Allow an application to disable the automatic SSL chain building. + Before this a rather primitive chain build was always performed in + ssl3_output_cert_chain(): an application had no way to send the + correct chain if the automatic operation produced an incorrect result. + + Now the chain builder is disabled if either: + + 1. Extra certificates are added via SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert(). + + 2. The mode flag SSL_MODE_NO_AUTO_CHAIN is set. + + The reasoning behind this is that an application would not want the + auto chain building to take place if extra chain certificates are + present and it might also want a means of sending no additional + certificates (for example the chain has two certificates and the + root is omitted). + [Steve Henson] + + *) Add the possibility to build without the ENGINE framework. + [Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte] + + *) Under Win32 gmtime() can return NULL: check return value in + OPENSSL_gmtime(). Add error code for case where gmtime() fails. + [Steve Henson] + + *) DSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects + could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early + enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Ivan D Nestlerode <nestler@MIT.EDU>, + Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> via PR#459) + [Lutz Jaenicke] + + *) Another fix for SSLv2 session ID handling: the session ID was incorrectly + checked on reconnect on the client side, therefore session resumption + could still fail with a "ssl session id is different" error. This + behaviour is masked when SSL_OP_ALL is used due to + SSL_OP_MICROSOFT_SESS_ID_BUG being set. + Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as + followup to PR #377. + [Lutz Jaenicke] + + *) IA-32 assembler support enhancements: unified ELF targets, support + for SCO/Caldera platforms, fix for Cygwin shared build. + [Andy Polyakov] + + *) Add support for FreeBSD on sparc64. As a consequence, support for + FreeBSD on non-x86 processors is separate from x86 processors on + the config script, much like the NetBSD support. + [Richard Levitte & Kris Kennaway <kris@obsecurity.org>] + Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.7 [31 Dec 2002] *) Fix session ID handling in SSLv2 client code: the SERVER FINISHED @@ -177,7 +258,7 @@ # is assumed to contain the absolute OpenSSL source directory. mkdir -p objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`" cd objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`" - (cd $OPENSSL_SOURCE; find . -type f -o -type l) | while read F; do + (cd $OPENSSL_SOURCE; find . -type f) | while read F; do mkdir -p `dirname $F` ln -s $OPENSSL_SOURCE/$F $F done @@ -1677,6 +1758,11 @@ des-cbc 3624.96k 5258.21k 5530.91k 5624.30k 5628.26k be reduced modulo m.
