DN, email, DNS + and URI types are currently supported. + + This work was sponsored by Google. + [Steve Henson] + + *) To cater for systems that provide a pointer-based thread ID rather + than numeric, deprecate the current numeric thread ID mechanism and + replace it with a structure and associated callback type. This + mechanism allows a numeric "hash" to be extracted from a thread ID in + either case, and on platforms where pointers are larger than 'long', + mixing is done to help ensure the numeric 'hash' is usable even if it + can't be guaranteed unique. The default mechanism is to use "&errno" + as a pointer-based thread ID to distinguish between threads. + + Applications that want to provide their own thread IDs should now use + CRYPTO_THREADID_set_callback() to register a callback that will call + either CRYPTO_THREADID_set_numeric() or CRYPTO_THREADID_set_pointer(). + + Note that ERR_remove_state() is now deprecated, because it is tied + to the assumption that thread IDs are numeric. ERR_remove_state(0) + to free the current thread's error state should be replaced by + ERR_remove_thread_state(NULL). + + (This new approach replaces the functions CRYPTO_set_idptr_callback(), + CRYPTO_get_idptr_callback(), and CRYPTO_thread_idptr() that existed in + OpenSSL 0.9.9-dev between June 2006 and August 2008. Also, if an + application was previously providing a numeric thread callback that + was inappropriate for distinguishing threads, then uniqueness might + have been obtained with &errno that happened immediately in the + intermediate development versions of OpenSSL; this is no longer the + case, the numeric thread callback will now override the automatic use + of &errno.) + [Geoff Thorpe, with help from Bodo Moeller] + + *) Initial support for different CRL issuing certificates. This covers a + simple case where the self issued certificates in the chain exist and + the real CRL issuer is higher in the existing chain. + + This work was sponsored by Google. + [Steve Henson] + + *) Removed effectively defunct crypto/store from the build. + [Ben Laurie] + + *) Revamp of STACK to provide stronger type-checking.

Still to come: + STACK, TXT_DB, bsearch, qsort. + [Ben Laurie] + + *) Initial support for Cryptographic Message Syntax (aka CMS) based + on RFC3850, RFC3851 and RFC3852.
