This is the beginning of a series of commits refactoring the chain
building/verification functions in order to:
- make it simpler to understand and work with
- prepare integration of restartable ECC
md() already checks for md_info == NULL. Also, in the future it might also
return other errors (eg hardware errors if acceleration is used), so it make
more sense to check its return value than to check for NULL ourselves and then
assume no other error can occur.
Also, currently, md_info == NULL can never happen except if the MD and OID modules
get out of sync, or if the user messes with members of the x509_crt structure
directly.
This commit does not change the current behaviour, which is to treat MD errors
the same way as a bad signature or no trusted root.
Currently only SHA1 is supported as PRF algorithm for PBKDF2
(PKCS#5 v2.0).
This means that keys encrypted and authenticated using
another algorithm of the SHA family cannot be decrypted.
This deficiency has become particularly incumbent now that
PKIs created with OpenSSL1.1 are encrypting keys using
hmacSHA256 by default (OpenSSL1.0 used PKCS#5 v1.0 by default
and even if v2 was forced, it would still use hmacSHA1).
Enable support for all the digest algorithms of the SHA
family for PKCS#5 v2.0.

On x32 systems, pointers are 4-bytes wide and are therefore stored in %e?x
registers (instead of %r?x registers). These registers must be accessed using
"addl" instead of "addq", however the GNU assembler will acccept the generic
"add" instruction and determine the correct opcode based on the registers
passed to it.
A new test for mbedtls_timing_alarm(0) was introduced in PR 1136, which also
fixed it on Unix. Apparently test results on MinGW were not checked at that
point, so we missed that this new test was also failing on this platform.
The corner cases fixed include:
* Allocating a buffer of size 0. With this change, the allocator now
returns a NULL pointer in this case. Note that changes in pem.c and
x509_crl.c were required to fix tests that did not work under this
assumption.
* Initialising the allocator with less memory than required for headers.
* Fix header chain checks for uninitialised allocator.
Fix compilation error on Mingw32 when `_TRUNCATE` is defined. Use
`_TRUNCATE` only if `__MINGW32__` not defined. Fix suggested by
Thomas Glanzmann and Nick Wilson on issue #355
The SHA-256 / SHA-512 context used for entropy mixing in entropy.c
was previously reset by zeroization. The commit replaces this by
a pair of calls to `mbedtls_shaxxx_init` and `mbedtls_shaxxx_free`
which is safe also for alternative implementations of SHA-256 or
SHA-512 for which zeroization might not be a proper reset.
The entropy context contains a SHA-256 or SHA-512 context for entropy
mixing, but doesn't initialize / free this context properly in the
initialization and freeing functions `mbedtls_entropy_init` and
`mbedtls_entropy_free` through a call to `mbedtls_sha{256/512}_init`
resp. `mbedtls_sha{256/512}_free`. Instead, only a zeroization of the
entire entropy structure is performed. This doesn't lead to problems
for the current software implementations of SHA-256 and SHA-512 because
zeroization is proper initialization for them, but it may (and does)
cause problems for alternative implementations of SHA-256 and SHA-512
that use context structures that cannot be properly initialized through
zeroization. This commit fixes this. Found and fix suggested by ccli8.
* mbedtls-2.1:
selftest: fix build error in some configurations
Timing self test: shorten redundant tests
Timing self test: increased duration
Timing self test: increased tolerance
selftest: allow excluding a subset of the tests
selftest: allow running a subset of the tests
selftest: fixed an erroneous return code
selftest: refactor to separate the list of tests from the logic
Timing self test: print some diagnosis information
mbedtls_timing_get_timer: don't use uninitialized memory
timing interface documentation: minor clarifications
Timing: fix mbedtls_set_alarm(0) on Unix/POSIX
Increase the duration of the self test, otherwise it tends to fail on
a busy machine even with the recently upped tolerance. But run the
loop only once, it's enough for a simple smoke test.
mbedtls_timing_self_test fails annoyingly often when running on a busy
machine such as can be expected of a continous integration system.
Increase the tolerances in the delay test, to reduce the chance of
failures that are only due to missing a deadline on a busy machine.
Print some not-very-nice-looking but helpful diagnosis information if
the timing selftest fails. Since the failures tend to be due to heavy
system load that's hard to reproduce, this information is necessary to
understand what's going on.
mbedtls_timing_get_timer with reset=1 is called both to initialize a
timer object and to reset an already-initialized object. In an
initial call, the content of the data structure is indeterminate, so
the code should not read from it. This could crash if signed overflows
trap, for example.
As a consequence, on reset, we can't return the previously elapsed
time as was previously done on Windows. Return 0 as was done on Unix.
The POSIX/Unix implementation of mbedtls_set_alarm did not set the
mbedtls_timing_alarmed flag when called with 0, which was inconsistent
with what the documentation implied and with the Windows behavior.
