* add links back to crypto(3) to function group entry pagesschwarze2019-06-1022-45/+70
| | | | | and to isolated obsolete pages; OK bcook@ jmc@
* Delete the display of the RSA_METHOD objectschwarze2019-06-081-70/+1
| | | | | | | | | | which is now supposed to be opaque. OK tb@ I checked that all the information contained in comments in the display is available from the appropriate places in RSA_meth_new(3) and RSA_set_flags(3). Note that the comments regarding "mod_exp", "init", and "finish" were half-misleading simplifications, anyway.
* In rsa.h rev. 1.40, gilles@ provided several new RSA_METHOD accessors.schwarze2019-06-085-46/+499
| | | | | Update the documentation. OK tb@ jmc@

| | | | OK tb@ jmc@
* Remove the last references to the RAND_*(3) functions.schwarze2019-06-0712-47/+34
| | | | | | These references were misleading because these functions are no longer used internally and applications should not call them either. Issue brought up by tb@.

* link back to evp(3), just like for the other group entry pagesschwarze2019-06-071-2/+3

* Remove pointless direct backlinks from the leaf pages HMAC(3) andschwarze2019-06-072-6/+4
| | | | | | | PKCS5_PBKDF2_HMAC(3) to the top level page evp(3). The leaf pages still have backlinks to the group entry page EVP_DigestInit(3), which is enough. Redundancy and asymmetry pointed out by tb@.

* Tree structure for manual pages: crypto(3) links to 33 functionschwarze2019-06-06117-281/+539
| | | | | | | | | | | group pages, and these link on to all their second-level subpages. Only a handful of second-level pages have third-level subpages. So all crypto pages can now be reached from the www.libressl.org frontpage via at most four clicks, in most cases three clicks. Also link back from leaf pages to their respective group pages and add a couple of additional links between related pages. Triggered by a question from deraadt@. OK jmc@ tb@

* Split EVP_rc4(3) out of EVP_EncryptInit(3) to reduce clutter.schwarze2019-03-214-21/+116
| | | | | | The algorithm is insecure and yet its description would spread over three paragraphs in the cipher list, including remarkable advice like using a 40 bit key length.
* Split EVP_des_cbc(3) out of EVP_EncryptInit(3) to reduce clutter:schwarze2019-03-214-55/+230
| | | | | this moves a large number of functions out of the way that are no longer the latest and greatest. Also mention a few that were missing.
* add a handful of missing functionsschwarze2019-03-211-5/+38

| | | | | | | AES wrap modes, the function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_flags(3) needed to set it, and the companion functions EVP_CIPHER_CTX_clear_flags(3) and EVP_CIPHER_CTX_test_flags(3). With help and an OK from tb@.
* Insert a missing input line break after a .Vt macro;schwarze2019-03-181-4/+5
| | | | | from Jan Stary <hans at stare dot cz>. Where here, correct one .Vt NULL -> .Dv NULL.
* Split EVP_aes_128_cbc(3) out of EVP_EncryptInit(3):schwarze2019-03-184-74/+322
| | | | | | | | | | | | both resulting pages are still long. Mention a number of missing functions. Add some text from the OpenSSL 1.1.1 EVP_aes.pod manual page, which is still under a free license. Add missing HISTORY information. Triggered by tb@ providing EVP_aes_{128,192,256}_wrap(3) in evp.h rev. 1.74.

* In evp.h rev. 1.75, tb@ provided EVP_PKEY_get0_hmac(3).schwarze2019-03-181-3/+29
| | | | | | | | | Document it. Even though OpenSSL muddles the waters by lumping the description together with the other EVP_PKEY_get0_*() functions, describe it separately because a char * has no reference count and because the function fills in an additional length parameter.
* Document the return values of X509_delete_ext(3) and X509_add_ext(3).schwarze2019-03-151-11/+15
| | | | | | From Viktor Dukhovni via OpenSSL commit 0df65d82 Jun 12 11:51:53 2018 -0400 which is still under a free license because it is before the 1.1.1 branch point. While here, add several missing const qualifiers.
* OpenSSL documents the macro OPENSSL_VERSION_TEXT since Sep 24, 2018;schwarze2019-03-151-4/+7
| | | | so mention it here, too.
* Document OCSP_basic_verify(3).schwarze2019-03-151-5/+75
| | | | | | From David dot von dot Oheimb at siemens dot com via OpenSSL commit b8c32081 Feb 10 15:45:11 2018 +0100, which is still under a free license because it is before the 1.1.1 branch point.

* rename CRYPTO_set_locking_callback.3 to CRYPTO_lock.3schwarze2019-03-102-4/+4
| | | | | | | because CRYPTO_set_locking_callback() is now a no-op and was never documented in the first place; no text change; requested by jmc@ long ago
* delete functions from the manual page that do nothing in LibreSSLschwarze2019-03-103-318/+87
| | | | | | | and that don't do anything in OpenSSL either; no significant amount of text remains from OpenSSL, so change the Copyright information and license of CRYPTO_set_locking_callback.3; OK inoguchi@ jmc@
* add support for xchacha20 and xchacha20-poly1305dlg2019-01-221-3/+17

* Make this page much more readable by deleting as much text as possibleschwarze2018-12-241-28/+9
| | | | | | | | | about functions that are deprecated, identical to other functions, and never made sense in the first place. As deraadt@ points out, we should not hide the information that matters in a heap of clutter. It would waste reader's time and make confusion and accidental misuse more likely. OK deraadt@ jmc@
* EVP_MD_CTX_cleanup() is deprecated and doesn't free, so recommend usingtb2018-12-234-12/+12
| | | | | | EVP_MD_CTX_free() instead if the goal is to avoid leaking memory. From my corresponding upstream commit, reminded by schwarze
* Document EVP_PKEY_new_mac_key(3);schwarze2018-12-221-8/+50
| | | | | from Matt Caswell <matt at openssl dot org> via OpenSSL commit d45a97f4 Mar 5 17:41:49 2018 +0000.
* Delete irrelevant HISTORY details. Simply use BN_rand(3); thereschwarze2018-12-221-12/+2
| | | | | | | is no need to know at which time BN_pseudo_rand(3) was made the same as BN_rand(3). Considering that question might even mislead people to attempt ill-advised #ifdef'ing. Pointed out by deraadt@.
* The wrong header file was given for EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_signature_md(3).schwarze2018-12-211-13/+69
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Also clarify to which algorithms it applies. From Matt Caswell <matt at openssl dot org> via OpenSSL commit d45a97f4 Mar 5 17:41:49 2018 +0000. Document EVP_PKEY_CTX_get_rsa_padding(3), EVP_PKEY_CTX_get_rsa_pss_saltlen(3), EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_rsa_mgf1_md(3), and EVP_PKEY_CTX_get_rsa_mgf1_md(3). From Antoine Salon <asalon at vmware dot com> via OpenSSL commit 87103969 Oct 1 14:11:57 2018 -0700 from the OpenSSL_1_1_1-stable branch, which is still under a free license.
* Document the ECDSA_SIG_new(3) return value.schwarze2018-12-211-2/+10
| | | | | | Inspired by OpenSSL commit 6da34cfb Jun 2 16:17:32 2018 -0400 by Ken Goldman <kgoldman at us dot ibm dot com>, but use the same wording as in ASN1_item_new(3) instead.
* Clarify behaviour of DH_get0_pqg(3) and DH_get0_key(3) with NULL arguments;schwarze2018-12-211-4/+19
| | | | | from <Matthias dot St dot Pierre at ncp dash e dot com> via OpenSSL commit 5777254b May 27 09:07:07 2018 +0200.

* Since OpenBSD 6.1, BN_pseudo_rand*(3) does the same as BN_rand*(3).schwarze2018-12-211-10/+18
| | | | | Say so, and note that OpenSSL followed suit in 1.1.0 according to OpenSSL commit 5ecff87d Jun 21 13:55:02 2017 +0100.
