* Document EVP_{CIPHER,MD}_do_all{,_sorted}(3)tb2023-08-303-3/+139
| | | | | | | | | | The function prototypes in the SYNOPSIS don't look great, but schwarze assures me that this is how it is supposed to be. It is rather strange that OpenSSL chose to sprinkle OPENSSL_init_crypto() calls into these four functions rather than two inside OBJ_NAME_do_all{,_sorted}(3). Surely there was a good reason for that. With input and fixes from schwarze
* Replace last ecdh.h and ecdsa.h occurrences with ec.htb2023-08-294-16/+12
| | | | | | Except if backward compatibility with older LibreSSL and OpenSSL versions is explicitly needed, ecdsa.h and ecdh.h should no longer be used. They are now trivial wrappers of ec.h.
* Move the weak SHA-1 and MD5 hashes out of EVP_DigestInit(3)schwarze2023-08-274-46/+138
| | | | | into a new EVP_sha1(3) manual page, and also mention EVP_md4(3) there. Using input from tb@ and jsing@, who like the general direction.
* document the return value of EVP_PKEY_asn1_find(3) andschwarze2023-08-271-4/+20
| | | | the "len" argument and the return value of EVP_PKEY_asn1_find_str(3)
* EVP_PKEY_set_type_str(3) is now documented, so switch from .Fn to .Xrschwarze2023-08-271-3/+3

* document EVP_PKEY_set_type_str(3)schwarze2023-08-271-7/+46
|
* add the missing information that and how flags can be combined,schwarze2023-08-261-3/+7
| | | | and add the missing link to evp(3)
* Write documentation for EVP_CIPHER_CTX_buf_noconst(3) from scratch.schwarze2023-08-261-5/+42
| | | | | | | Put it here rather than into EVP_EncryptInit(3) because similar to EVP_CIPHER_CTX_get_cipher_data(3), application software should not use it. These functions will likely not be needed except by people implementing custom encryption algorithms.
* write documentation for EVP_CIPHER_CTX_copy(3)schwarze2023-08-261-4/+86

| | | | | and be more specific below RETURN VALUES; OK tb@
* In evp.h rev.s 1.90 and 1.97, tb@ provided EVP_CIPHER_CTX_get_cipher_data(3)schwarze2023-08-253-3/+114
| | | | | | and EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_cipher_data(3). Import the manual page from the OpenSSL 1.1 branch, which is still under a free licence, with several improvements by me.

|
* Document EVP_add_{cipher,digest} and friendstb2023-08-253-3/+163
| | | | | These and EVP_{add,remove}_{cipher,digest}_alias() are mostly for internal use.
* Update references from RFC 7539 to RFC 8439tb2023-08-242-7/+7
| | | | | | | | RFC 7539 was superseded by RFC 8439, incorporating errata and making editorial improvements. Very little of substance changed, in particular section numbers remain the same. Prompted by a question from schwarze
* Align the documentation of EVP_chacha20() with actual behaviortb2023-08-241-6/+6
| | | | | | | | Incorrect OpenSSL documentation was moved here and inherited parts of a comment that was fixed in evp/e_chacha.c r1.13. Adjust the manual page accordingly. Discussed with schwarze
* Mention key and nonce lengths of AEAD ciphers.schwarze2023-08-232-33/+105
| | | | | | | | | Mention portability considerations regarding the EVP_AEAD API. Avoid confusing words like "older" and "native" API, be specific. Mention RFC 7905. Move publications we don't implement from STANDARDS to CAVEATS. Based on input from jsing@ and tb@, OK tb@.

* add the missing entry for EVP_CIPHER_CTX_ctrl(3) to the RETURN VALUES sectionschwarze2023-08-161-2/+11
|
* Describe more precisely how these functions are supposed to be used,schwarze2023-08-161-19/+185
| | | | | | | | document the control operations supported by EVP_chacha20_poly1305(3), and add the missing STANDARDS and HISTORY sections. This replaces all text written by Matt Caswell and all text Copyrighted by OpenSSL in the year 2019.
* SHA-3 is not a symmetric cipher.schwarze2023-08-151-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | Fix a copy and paste mistake that Ronald Tse introduced in 2017 even though Richard Levitte and Bernd Edlinger reviewed his commit - and that i unwittingly copied. Even in the OpenSSL 3 main trunk, it wasn't fixed until 2022, and in OpenSSL-1.1.1, it is still wrong. Unfortunately, we need to be really careful before believing anything the OpenSSL documentation says...
* Import the EVP_chacha20(3) manual page from the OpenSSL 1.1 branch,schwarze2023-08-154-14/+102
| | | | | | which is still under a free license, to work on it in the tree. The required content changes have not been done yet, i only tweaked the markup and wording so far.
* Below SEE ALSO, point to all pages documenting the evp.h sub-library, andschwarze2023-08-141-11/+56
| | | | | | | | also point to a selection of functions from other sub-libraries that rely on evp.h objects, in particular on EVP_CIPHER, EVP_MD, and EVP_PKEY. While here, merge a few trivial improvements to orthography and punctuation from the OpenSSL 1.1 branch.

* 1. Tweak the descriptions of EVP_MD_CTX_ctrl(3), EVP_MD_CTX_set_flags(3),schwarze2023-08-121-52/+107
| | | | | | | | EVP_MD_CTX_clear_flags(3), EVP_MD_CTX_test_flags(3), and the atrocious EVP_MD_CTX_set_pkey_ctx(3) for precision. 2. Tweak the description of EVP_MD_type(3) and EVP_MD_CTX_type(3) for conciseness. 3. Add a few missing HISTORY bits.

* Add the missing ".Nm X509_STORE_CTX_check_issued_fn" to the NAME sectionschwarze2023-08-101-2/+4

* The CRYPTO_EX_DATA type is not opaquetb2023-07-281-5/+2
| | | | | | | | | By API misdesign, it cannot be opaque. The incorrect documentation was added as a part of a huge commit with a lot of churn. CRYPTO_EX_DATA typically lives as an embedded struct of an opaque struct, but it can also be used by applications, for example to initialize libssl. documentation error pointed out by jsing
