* crypto: add preemptive threading supportČestmír Kalina2022-10-171-0/+21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some primitives are designed to be used in a multi-threaded environment, if supported, e.g., Argon2. This patch adds support for preemptive threading and basic synchronization primitives for platforms compliant with POSIX threads or Windows CRT. Native functions are wrapped to provide a common (internal) API. Threading support can be disabled at compile time. If enabled, threading is disabled by default and needs to be explicitly enabled by the user. Thread enablement requires an explicit limit on the number of threads that OpenSSL may spawn (non-negative integer/infinity). The limit may be changed.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some of the notes and readme files have been converted to markdown format recently and renamed during this process. While adding the .md extension was a natural step, switching to mixed cases was not a change to the better, it gives them a ragged appearance: NOTES.ANDROID => NOTES-Android.md NOTES.DJGPP => NOTES-DJGPP.md NOTES.PERL => NOTES-Perl.md NOTES.UNIX => NOTES-Unix.md NOTES.VMS => NOTES-VMS.md NOTES.VALGRIND => NOTES-Valgrind.md NOTES.WIN => NOTES-Windows.txt README.ENGINE => README-Engine.md README.FIPS => README-FIPS.md Moreover, the NOTES-Windows.txt file is the only file which has been converted to markdown but has received a .txt file extension. This doesn't make sense, because the OpenSSL users on Windows will need to read the other markdown documents as well. Since they are developers, we can trust them to be able to associate their favorite editor with the .md extension. In fact, having a comment at the beginning of the file saying that it is in markdown format but we didn't dare to add the correct extension in order not to overwhelm our Windows users can be interpreted either as unintentionally funny or disrespectful ;-) This commit suggests the following more consistent renaming: NOTES.ANDROID => NOTES-ANDROID.md NOTES.DJGPP => NOTES-DJGPP.md NOTES.PERL => NOTES-PERL.md NOTES.UNIX => NOTES-UNIX.md NOTES.VMS => NOTES-VMS.md NOTES.VALGRIND => NOTES-VALGRIND.md NOTES.WIN => NOTES-WINDOWS.md README.ENGINE => README-ENGINES.md README.FIPS => README-FIPS.md (note the plural in README-ENGINES, anticipating a README-PROVIDERS) Reviewed-by: Paul Dale <pauli@openssl.org> (Merged from https://github.com/openssl/openssl/pull/14042)

* Add ACVP fips module testsShane Lontis2020-06-171-0/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For FIPS validation purposes - Automated Cryptographic Validation Protocol (ACVP) tests need to be performed. (See https://github.com/usnistgov/ACVP). These tests are very similiar to the old CAVS tests. This PR uses a hardwired subset of these test vectors to perform similiar operations, to show the usage and prove that the API's are able to perform the required operations. It may also help with communication with the lab (i.e- The lab could add a test here to show a unworking use case - which we can then address). The EVP layer performs these tests instead of calling lower level API's as was done in the old FOM. Some of these tests require access to internals that are not normally allowed/required. The config option 'acvp_tests' (enabled by default) has been added so that this access may be removed. The mechanism has been implemented as additional OSSL_PARAM values that can be set and get. A callback mechanism did not seem to add any additional benefit. These params will not be added to the gettables lists.
