The primary use case behind providing an abstraction layer to enable
alternative Elliptic Curve Point arithmetic implementation, is making
use of cryptographic acceleration hardware if it is present.
To provide thread safety for the hardware accelerator we need a mutex
to guard it.
The compile time macros enabling the initialisation and deinitialisation
in the alternative Elliptic Curve Point arithmetic implementation had
names that did not end with '_ALT' as required by check-names.sh.
When provided with an empty line, mpi_read_file causes a numeric
underflow resulting in a stack underflow. This commit fixes this and
adds some documentation to mpi_read_file.
The modular inversion function hangs when provided with the modulus 1. This commit refuses this modulus with a BAD_INPUT error code. It also adds a test for this case.
In the ecdsa.c sample application we don't use hashing, we use ecdsa
directly on a buffer containing plain text. Although the text explains
that it should be the message hash it still can be confusing.
Any misunderstandings here are potentially very dangerous, because ECDSA
truncates the message hash if necessary and this can lead to trivial
signature forgeries if the API is misused and the message is passed
directly to the function without hashing.
This commit adds a hash computation step to the ecdsa.c sample
application and clarification to the doxygen documentation of the
ECDSA functions involved.
Fix an incorrect condition in ssl_check_ctr_renegotiate() that compared
64 bits of record counter instead of 48 bits as described in RFC 6347
Section 4.3.1. This would cause the function's return value to be
occasionally incorrect and the renegotiation routines to be triggered
at unexpected times.

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.
