While not strictly related to this PR, this change improves readability in
some resumption-related runtime conditions that previously had rather ugly
preprocessor directives in the middle of already complex predicates.
Due to previous change of conditions, this is now in the 'else' branch of 'if
resume == 1' and the only allowed values are 0 or 1, so setting to 0 is
redundant.
The session cache is only server-side. This also aligns the conditions
guarding those fields with the condition guarding the function setting them -
no need to have the fields if we can't set them.
This preserves the API and ABI in the default config as it only affects
non-default configs.
Add a new configuration option MBEDTLS_SSL_SESSION_RESUMPTION
to enable/disable the session resumption feature including
ticket and cache based session resumption.
Resource counting as a safe-guard against nested acquire calls
is implemented if and only if MBEDTLS_X509_ALWAYS_FLUSH is disabled
_or_ MBEDTLS_THREADING_C is enabled.
Oz is allowed to make size optimizations that make the code slower,
where Os isn't. Optimize with Oz, as we care more about having a small
code footprint than having fast code.
Previously, a call to mbedtls_x509_crt_xxx_release() would return
MBEDTLS_ERR_THREADING_MUTEX_ERROR if usage counter for the frame/PK
was 0. Now that resource counting can also be used outside of
threading support, this is no longer adequate, and this commit
changes the return code to MBEDTLS_ERR_X509_FATAL_ERROR; while
generic, this at least matches the top-level module.
Forbidding nested calls to acquire() allows to remove the reference
counting logic and hence saving some bytes of code. This is valuable
because MBEDTLS_X509_ALWAYS_FLUSH is likely to be used on constrained
systems where code-size is limited.
Previously, reference counting for the CRT frames and PK contexts
handed out by mbedtls_x509_crt_{frame|pk}_acquire() was implemented
only in case threading support was enabled, which leaves the door
open for a potential use-after-free should a single-threaded application
use nested calls to mbedtls_x509_crt_acquire().
Since Mbed TLS itself does not use such nested calls, it might be
preferred long-term to forbid nesting of acquire calls on the API
level, and hence get rid of reference counting in the interest of
code-size benefits. However, this can be considered as an optimization
of X.509 on demand parsing, and for now this commit introduces
reference counting unconditionally to have a safe version of
on demand parsing to build further optimizations upon.
During rebase, the definition of ::mbedtls_x509_crt_sig_info
as well as x509_crt_free_sig_info() and x509_crt_get_sig_info()
were accidentally guarded by !MBEDTLS_X509_REMOVE_INFO.
This commit moves their definition outside of that guard.
If MBEDTLS_HAVE_TIME_DATE is undefined, the functions
`mbedtls_x509_time_is_past()` and `mbedtls_x509_time_is_future()`
are still defined but return `0` (that is, no time is seen to in
the past or future). To maintain functional correctness, this
means that these functions have to be called in a way where
the condition being checked for is the erroneous one: Concretely,
one shouldn't check that a CRT's `validFrom` is in the past,
or that its `validTo` is in the future, because that would
fail if !MBEDTLS_HAVE_TIME_DATE. Instead, one should check
that `validFrom` is NOT in the future, and `validTo` is NOT
in the past. That was the logic previously, but an uncautious
change during transition to X.509 on-demand parsing has
changed it. This commit fixes this.
WHen parsing the CRT version, we already check that
version is either 1, 2, or 3, so checking whether
version == 2 or version == 3 is equivalent to
version != 1.
The previous tests used 100 parallel workers which for EC certificates
leads to a memory usage of more than 1Mb, hence leading to an out of memory
condition in tests using the memory buffer allocator which has a pool of 1Mb.
Use 25 workers but an increased number of iterations per worker instead.
