From kernel objects at msdn:
Kernel object handles are process specific. That is, a process must either create the object or open an existing object to obtain a kernel object handle. The per-process limit on kernel handles is 2^24.
Windows Internals by Russinovich and Solomon as well says that the high bits are zero.
The 3-key and 2-key Triple DES PBE functions have been replaced with a
single pkcs12_pbe() function that handles both situations (and more).
In addition this allows for some PASSWORD_MISMATCH checking
POLARSSL_ERR_X509_PASSWORD_MISMATCH is returned instead of
POLARSSL_ERR_PEM_PASSWORD_MISMATCH and
POLARSSL_ERR_X509_PASSWORD_REQUIRED instead of
POLARSSL_ERR_PEM_PASSWORD_REQUIRED
Rationale: For PKCS#8 encrypted keys the same are returned
The error code POLARSSL_ERR_X509_PASSWORD_MISMATCH is now properly
returned in case of an encryption failure in the padding. The
POLARSSL_ERR_X509_PASSWORD_REQUIRED error code is only returned for PEM
formatted private keys as for DER formatted ones it is impossible to
distinguish if a DER blob is PKCS#8 encrypted or not.
All symmetric cipher algorithms and hash algorithms now include support
for a POLARSSL_XXX_ALT flag that prevents the definition of the
algorithm context structure and all 'core' functions.
PKCS#8 encrypted key file support has been added to x509parse_key() with
support for some PCKS#12 PBE functions (pbeWithSHAAnd128BitRC4,
pbeWithSHAAnd3-KeyTripleDES-CBC and pbeWithSHAAnd2-KeyTripleDES-CBC)
Split up x509parse_key() into a (PEM) handler function and specific
DER parser functions for the PKCS#1 (x509parse_key_pkcs1_der()) and
unencrypted PKCS#8 (x509parse_key_pkcs8_unencrypted_der()) private
key formats.
Because of new pem_read_buffer() handling of when it writes use_len,
x509parse_crt() is able to better handle situations where a PEM blob
results in an error but the other blobs can still be parsed.
After header and footer are read, pem_read_buffer() is able to determine
the length of input data used. This allows calling functions to skip
this PEM bit if an error occurs during its parsing.
Removed unused variable 'v'
orig_len and orig_add_len are now uint64_t to support larger than 2^29
data sizes

The ciphersuites parameter in the ssl_session structure changed from
'int *' to 'int **' and is now malloced in ssl_init() and freed in
ssl_free().
The new function ssl_set_ciphersuite_for_version() sets specific entries
inside this array. ssl_set_ciphersuite() sets all entries to the same
value.
