* Some wording tweaks to make things a bit more precise.tb2023-09-291-6/+7

* Fix a wrong tag and work around an ugly linebreaktb2023-09-291-5/+6

* Document X509v3_{addr,asid}_validate_{path,resource_set}(3)tb2023-09-296-10/+217
| | | | | | | These were the last four RFC 3779 things that check_complete.pl x509v3 complained about. I will surely tweak and try to improve a few things in the coming days, but the pages should now be stable enough that review efforts will likely not be wasted. Any feedback appreciated.
* Document X509v3_{addr,asid}_subset.3 take two (missed cvs add)tb2023-09-281-0/+176
| | | | | | First RFC 3779 page without a BUG section. It could have one, but I'm in a lenient mood right now. Maybe it's just that this is bad but not quite as bad as EVP.
* Document X509v3_{addr,asid}_subset.3tb2023-09-287-30/+40
| | | | | | First RFC 3779 page without a BUG section. It could have one, but I'm in a lenient mood right now. Maybe it's just that this is bad but not quite as bad as EVP.

| | | | | Someone clearly didn't actually use much of the code they wrote and exposed and therefore didn't think it through properly.

* Add initial documentation for the RFC 3779 APItb2023-09-255-5/+889
| | | | | | | | This documents the part of the API that allows building the two extensions. It is all very complicated and the bug density is quite high. Surely there's lots of room for improvement, but I've been sitting way too long on versions of these. I'll never finish. Let's fix and improve in tree.
* PEM_def_callback(3) does not truncate its argument but merely the copy,schwarze2023-09-181-15/+21

* Rewrite RSA_get_ex_new_index(3) and CRYPTO_set_ex_data(3) from scratch.schwarze2023-09-182-462/+753
| | | | | | | | | The defects of the old pages were too numerous to list in full but included vagueness, gaps, misleading statements, bad ordering, and duplication. Use my Copyright since none of the text we inherited from OpenSSL remains. Without doing a thorough review, tb@ thinks he likes the new pages after quickly reading through both of them.

* Document the special meaning of NID_undef in this context.schwarze2023-09-131-4/+13
| | | | | | | | From Matt Caswell <matt at openssl dot org> via OpenSSL commit 1212818e (Sep 11, 2018) from the OpenSSL 1.1 branch, which is still under a free license. Wording slightly tweaked by me.

* Mention EVP_PKEY_encrypt_old(3) and EVP_PKEY_decrypt_old(3) becauseschwarze2023-09-101-7/+87
| | | | | | | some software still calls them. Put them here because despite the function and header names, they are really specific to RSA. Besides, this avoids a distraction in the more important EVP_PKEY_encrypt(3) and EVP_PKEY_decrypt(3) manual pages.
* Briefly mention SSLeay_add_all_algorithms(3) becauseschwarze2023-09-101-6/+18
| | | | | | | | surprisingly large numbers of software packages still call it. Mark the unused aliases OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_conf(3), OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_noconf(3), SSLeay_add_all_ciphers(3), and SSLeay_add_all_digests(3) as intentionally undicumented.
* Document the deprecated functions EVP_set_pw_prompt(3) andschwarze2023-09-101-71/+86
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | EVP_get_pw_prompt(3) because some software out there still uses them. While here, also improve the description of EVP_read_pw_string(3). Delete documentation for des_read_pw(3) and des_read_pw_string(3). They couldn't be used in LibreSSL since at least 2016 because they were never in Symbols.list, and in 2022, jsing@ also removed them from <openssl/ui_compat.h>. Delete the misleading AUTHORS section. Richard Levitte did not write the original implementation of these functions, and the compatibility wrapper around the UI_process(3) API that he did write is not notable enough to be mentioned so prominently.
* Mark EVP_ENCODE_LENGTH() and EVP_DECODE_LENGTH() as intentionallyschwarze2023-09-101-2/+6
| | | | | | | undocumented because they do not describe properties of the Base64 encoding but add arbitrary constant lengths, hence being implementation details of BIO_f_base64(3). Besides, they are practically unused outside evp/bio_b64.c.

* Document EVP_PKEY_CTX_set0_keygen_info(3).schwarze2023-09-091-10/+59
| | | | | | While here, also add the missing RETURN VALUES entries for EVP_PKEY_gen_cb(3), EVP_PKEY_CTX_get_cb(3), and EVP_PKEY_CTX_get_keygen_info(3).
* Document EVP_PKEY_CTX_get0_peerkey(3).schwarze2023-09-091-19/+97
| | | | While here, also make the descriptions of the other functions more precise.
* Mark EVP_PKEY_save_parameters() as intentionally undocumentedschwarze2023-09-081-2/+6
| | | | | | because nothing uses it according to codesearch.debian.net and it only affects X509_PUBKEY_set(3) for DSA and GOST2001 keys, resulting in incomplete output without the public key parameters.
* Below RETURN VALUES,schwarze2023-09-071-10/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | * mention that EVP_MD_CTX_md(3) also returns NULL if no message digest is configured yet; and * omplete the list of functions returning const EVP_MD *, also making the wording more precise. Delete EVP_MAX_MD_SIZE from the NAME, SYNOPSIS, and HISTORY sections because we do not usually document preprocessor macro constants in this way. There is nothing special about this constant justifying an exception.
* add the missing entries for EVP_MD_CTX_pkey_ctx(3) and EVP_MD_CTX_md_data(3)schwarze2023-09-071-1/+7

* Mark EVP_CIPHER_set_asn1_iv() and EVP_CIPHER_get_asn1_iv() as intentionallyschwarze2023-09-061-2/+7
| | | | | | | | undocumented because they are unused outside libcrypto according to codesearch.debian.net and should probably not be public: they seem hardly useful even for implementing custom EVP_CIPHER algorithms. tb@ came to similar conclusions regarding these two functions.
