A new test for mbedtls_timing_alarm(0) was introduced in PR 1136, which also
fixed it on Unix. Apparently test results on MinGW were not checked at that
point, so we missed that this new test was also failing on this platform.
Add MBEDTLS_ERR_XXX_HW_ACCEL_FAILED error codes for all cryptography
modules where the software implementation can be replaced by a hardware
implementation.
This does not include the individual message digest modules since they
currently have no way to return error codes.
This does include the higher-level md, cipher and pk modules since
alternative implementations and even algorithms can be plugged in at
runtime.
This commit allows users to provide alternative implementations of the
ECJPAKE interface through the configuration option MBEDTLS_ECJPAKE_ALT.
When set, the user must add `ecjpake_alt.h` declaring the same
interface as `ecjpake.h`, as well as add some compilation unit which
implements the functionality. This is in line with the preexisting
support for alternative implementations of other modules.
The corner cases fixed include:
* Allocating a buffer of size 0. With this change, the allocator now
returns a NULL pointer in this case. Note that changes in pem.c and
x509_crl.c were required to fix tests that did not work under this
assumption.
* Initialising the allocator with less memory than required for headers.
* Fix header chain checks for uninitialised allocator.
Use the updated names for the new functions (xxx_ret instead of xxx_ext).
List the new deprecations in the appropriate sections.
Credit the independent report of the misuse of zeroizing to reset a
hash context in entropy.c.
Conflict resolution:
* ChangeLog: put the new entries in their rightful place.
* library/x509write_crt.c: the change in development was whitespace
only, so use the one from the iotssl-1251 feature branch.
Edit the CMAC_ALT ChangeLog entry to mention CCM_ALT which was added
in a sister PR and is being merged together.
Use full name rather than Github id as attribution.
Move the entry under "Features" for better consistency with historical
practice.
Conflict resolution: additions in the same places as
upstream-public/pr/865, both adding into lexicographically sorted
lists, resolved by taking the additions in lexicographic order.

1. Surround the generate keys with
`#if ! defined(MBEDTLS_CMAC_ALT) || defined(MBEDTLS_SELF_TEST)`
to resolve build issue when `MBEDTLS_SELF_TEST` is defined for
alternative CMAC as well
2. Update ChangeLog
Increase the duration of the self test, otherwise it tends to fail on
a busy machine even with the recently upped tolerance. But run the
loop only once, it's enough for a simple smoke test.
New set of unit tests for the timing module, instead of just running
the selftest function.
The selftest function sometimes fails on a heavily loaded
machine (such as a typical continuous integration system). Because of
the all-in-one nature of the test and because the exact load pattern
can be hard to reproduce, it is difficult to diagnose failures of CI
runs with selftest. The new tests are more separated and I strove to
point out potential failure modes in comments.
* mbedtls_timing_hardclock: not tested. This function gives so few
guarantees that there isn't much to test, and it is hard to test
reliably because clock cycles don't easily relate to time in any
remotely portable way. This function isn't used in the library
anyway, it's only there for benchmark programs.
* mbedtls_timing_get_timer: tested by setting a timer and verifying
that it reaches its target, and by verifying that a timer started
later than another always has a smaller elapsed time.
* mbedtls_set_alarm: tested by setting an alarm, busy-waiting for it
and measuring the elapsed time with a timer.
* mbedtls_timing_set_delay, mbedtls_timing_get_delay: tested by
setting a delay object and watching it go through its two delay
values, using a timer to check that the delays are passed at the
expected time.
The tests pass under light to moderate load, but some of them can be
defeated with sufficiently heavy load. This is unavoidable since the
test process to be effectively suspended for any length of time,
making us think that a timer has gone on for too long.
mbedtls_timing_get_timer with reset=1 is called both to initialize a
timer object and to reset an already-initialized object. In an
initial call, the content of the data structure is indeterminate, so
the code should not read from it. This could crash if signed overflows
trap, for example.
As a consequence, on reset, we can't return the previously elapsed
time as was previously done on Windows. Return 0 as was done on Unix.
The POSIX/Unix implementation of mbedtls_set_alarm did not set the
mbedtls_timing_alarmed flag when called with 0, which was inconsistent
with what the documentation implied and with the Windows behavior.

Remove a check introduced in the previous buffer overflow fix with keys of
size 8N+1 which the subsequent fix for buffer start calculations made
redundant.
Added a changelog entry for the buffer start calculation fix.
Fix buffer overflow in RSA-PSS signature verification when the hash is
too large for the key size. Found by Seth Terashima, Qualcomm.
Added a non-regression test and a positive test with the smallest
permitted key size for a SHA-512 hash.
Signature algorithm extension was skipped when renegotiation was in
progress, causing the signature algorithm not to be known when
renegotiating, and failing the handshake. Fix removes the renegotiation
step check before parsing the extension.

1) move the change into Features from Changes, in the changLog
2) Change the feature alternative configuration MBEDTLS_ECDH_ALT
definition to function alternative defintions
MBEDTLS_ECDH_COMPUTE_SHARED_ALT and MBEDTLS_ECDH_GEN_PUBLIC_ALT
1) update ChangLog to have new feature in Features instead of Changes
2) Change MBEDTLS_ECDSA_ALT to function specific alternative definitions:
MBEDTLS_ECDSA_SIGN_ALT, MBEDTLS_ECDSA_VERIFY_ALT and MBEDTLS_ECDSA_GENKEY_ALT
Although the variable ret was initialised to an error, the
MBEDTLS_MPI_CHK macro was overwriting it. Therefore it ended up being
0 whenewer the bignum computation was successfull and stayed 0
independently of the actual check.
Fix compilation error on Mingw32 when `_TRUNCATE` is defined. Use
`_TRUNCATE` only if `__MINGW32__` not defined. Fix suggested by
Thomas Glanzmann and Nick Wilson on issue #355
