From 6357a19ff29dac04f93eb113c8dd00c2805984f8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Daniel Stenberg Date: Thu, 16 Jan 2020 08:17:04 +0100 Subject: polarssl: removed As detailed in DEPRECATE.md, the polarssl support is now removed after having been disabled for 6 months and nobody has missed it. The threadlock files used by mbedtls are renamed to an 'mbedtls' prefix instead of the former 'polarssl' and the common functions that previously were shared between mbedtls and polarssl and contained the name 'polarssl' have now all been renamed to instead say 'mbedtls'.
