Changes between 1.0.2e and 1.1.0 [xx XXX xxxx]
+ *) Configuration and writing out the results from it has changed.
+ Files such as Makefile include/openssl/opensslconf.h and are now
+ produced through general templates, such as Makefile.in and
+ crypto/opensslconf.h.in and some help from the perl module
+ Text::Template.
+
+ Also, the center of configuration information is no longer
+ Makefile. Instead, Configure produces a perl module in
+ configdata.pm which holds most of the config data (in the hash
+ table %config), the target data that comes from the target
+ configuration in one of the Configurations/*.conf files (in
+ %target).
+ [Richard Levitte]
+
+ *) To clarify their intended purposes, the Configure options
+ --prefix and --openssldir change their semantics, and become more
+ straightforward and less interdependent.
+
+ --prefix shall be used exclusively to give the location INSTALLTOP
+ where programs, scripts, libraries, include files and manuals are
+ going to be installed. The default is now /usr/local.
+
+ --openssldir shall be used exclusively to give the default
+ location OPENSSLDIR where certificates, private keys, CRLs are
+ managed. This is also where the default openssl.cnf gets
+ installed.
+ If the directory given with this option is a relative path, the
+ values of both the --prefix value and the --openssldir value will
+ be combined to become OPENSSLDIR.
+ The default for --openssldir is INSTALLTOP/ssl.
+
+ Anyone who uses --openssldir to specify where OpenSSL is to be
+ installed MUST change to use --prefix instead.
+ [Richard Levitte]
+
+ *) The GOST engine was out of date and therefore it has been removed. An up
+ to date GOST engine is now being maintained in an external repository.
+ See: https://wiki.openssl.org/index.php/Binaries. Libssl still retains
+ support for GOST ciphersuites (these are only activated if a GOST engine
+ is present).
+ [Matt Caswell]
+
+ *) EGD is no longer supported by default; use enable-egd when
+ configuring.
+ [Ben Kaduk and Rich Salz]
+
+ *) The distribution now has Makefile.in files, which are used to
+ create Makefile's when Configure is run. *Configure must be run
+ before trying to build now.*
+ [Rich Salz]
+
*) The return value for SSL_CIPHER_description() for error conditions
has changed.

exchange. The LOW ciphers currently doesn't have any ciphers in it.
[Kurt Roeckx]
- *) Make EVP_MD_CTX, EVP_MD and HMAC_CTX opaque. For HMAC_CTX, the
- following constructors and destructors were added:
+ *) Made EVP_MD_CTX, EVP_MD, EVP_CIPHER_CTX, EVP_CIPHER and HMAC_CTX
+ opaque. For HMAC_CTX, the following constructors and destructors
+ were added:
HMAC_CTX *HMAC_CTX_new(void);
void HMAC_CTX_free(HMAC_CTX *ctx);
- For EVP_MD, a complete API to create, fill and destroy such
- methods has been added. See EVP_MD_meth_new(3) for
- documentation.
+ For EVP_MD and EVP_CIPHER, complete APIs to create, fill and
+ destroy such methods has been added. See EVP_MD_meth_new(3) and
+ EVP_CIPHER_meth_new(3) for documentation.
Additional changes:
- 1) HMAC_CTX_cleanup() and EVP_MD_CTX_cleanup() were removed,
- HMAC_CTX_init() and EVP_MD_CTX_init() should be called instead
- to reinitialise and already created structure. Also,
- HMAC_CTX_init() and EVP_MD_CTX_init() now return 0 for failure
- and 1 for success (they previously had the return type void).
+ 1) EVP_MD_CTX_cleanup(), EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() and
+ HMAC_CTX_cleanup() were removed. HMAC_CTX_reset() and
+ EVP_MD_CTX_reset() should be called instead to reinitialise
+ an already created structure.
2) For consistency with the majority of our object creators and
destructors, EVP_MD_CTX_(create|destroy) were renamed to
EVP_MD_CTX_(new|free). The old names are retained as macros
