It can currently list engines by name and + identity, and test if they are actually available. + [Richard Levitte] + + *) Add support for shared libraries under Irix. + [Albert Chin-A-Young ] + + *) Improve RPM specification file by forcing symbolic linking and making + sure the installed documentation is also owned by root.root. + [Damien Miller ] + + *) Add configuration option to build on Linux on both big-endian and + little-endian MIPS. + [Ralf Baechle ] + + *) Give the OpenSSL applications more possibilities to make use of + keys (public as well as private) handled by engines. + [Richard Levitte] + + *) Add OCSP code that comes from CertCo. + [Richard Levitte] + + *) Add VMS support for the Rijndael code. + [Richard Levitte] + + *) Added untested support for Nuron crypto accelerator. + [Ben Laurie] + + *) Add support for external cryptographic devices. This code was + previously distributed separately as the "engine" branch. + [Geoff Thorpe, Richard Levitte] + + *) Rework the filename-translation in the DSO code. It is now possible to + have far greater control over how a "name" is turned into a filename + depending on the operating environment and any oddities about the + different shared library filenames on each system. + [Geoff Thorpe] + + *) Support threads on FreeBSD-elf in Configure. + [Richard Levitte] + + *) Add the possibility to create shared libraries on HP-UX + [Richard Levitte] + + *) Fix for SHA1 assembly problem with MASM: it produces + warnings about corrupt line number information when assembling + with debugging information. This is caused by the overlapping + of two sections. + [Bernd Matthes , Steve Henson] + + *) NCONF changes. + NCONF_get_number() has no error checking at all. As a replacement, + NCONF_get_number_e() is defined (_e for "error checking") and is + promoted strongly. The old NCONF_get_number is kept around for + binary backward compatibility. + Make it possible for methods to load from something other than a BIO, + by providing a function pointer that is given a name instead of a BIO. + For example, this could be used to load configuration data from an + LDAP server. + [Richard Levitte] + + *) Fix typo in get_cert_by_subject() in by_dir.c + [Jean-Marc Desperrier ] + + *) Rework the system to generate shared libraries: + + - Make note of the expected extension for the shared libraries and + if there is a need for symbolic links from for example libcrypto.so.0 + to libcrypto.so.0.9.7. There is extended info in Configure for + that. + + - Make as few rebuilds of the shared libraries as possible. + + - Still avoid linking the OpenSSL programs with the shared libraries. + + - When installing, install the shared libraries separately from the + static ones. + [Richard Levitte] + + *) Fix for non blocking accept BIOs. Added new I/O special reason + BIO_RR_ACCEPT to cover this case. Previously use of accept BIOs + with non blocking I/O was not possible because no retry code was + implemented. Also added new SSL code SSL_WANT_ACCEPT to cover + this case. + [Steve Henson] + + *) Added the beginnings of Rijndael support. + [Ben Laurie] + + *) Fix for bug in DirectoryString mask setting. Add support for + X509_NAME_print_ex() in 'req' and X509_print_ex() function + to allow certificate printing to more controllable, additional + 'certopt' option to 'x509' to allow new printing options to be + set. + [Steve Henson] + + *) Clean old EAY MD5 hack from e_os.h. + [Richard Levitte] + + *) Fix SSL_CTX_set_read_ahead macro to actually use its argument. + + Copy SSL_CTX's read_ahead flag to SSL object directly in SSL_new + and not in SSL_clear because the latter is also used by the + accept/connect functions; previously, the settings made by + SSL_set_read_ahead would be lost during the handshake. + [Bodo Moeller; problems reported by Anders Gertz ] + + *) Correct util/mkdef.pl to be selective about disabled algorithms. + Previously, it would create entries for disableed algorithms no + matter what. + [Richard Levitte] Changes between 0.9.5a and 0.9.6 [24 Sep 2000]
