390: <li> Fixed a bug in int_x509_param_set_hosts, calling strlen() if name
391: length provided is 0 to match the OpenSSL behaviour. Issue noticed
1.36 tb 392: by Christian Heimes <christian@python.org>
1.29 beck 393: <li> Added support for many OpenSSL 1.0.2 and 1.1 APIs, based on
394: observations of real-world usage in applications. These are
395: implemented in parallel with existing OpenSSL 1.0.1 APIs - visibility
396: changes have not been made to existing structs, allowing code written
397: for older OpenSSL APIs to continue working.
398: <li> Extensive corrections, improvements, and additions to the
399: API documentation, including new public APIs from OpenSSL that had
400: no pre-existing documentation.
401: <li> Added support for automatic library initialization in libcrypto,
402: libssl, and libtls. Support for pthread_once or a compatible
403: equivalent is now required of the target operating system. As a
404: side-effect, minimum Windows support is Vista or higher.
405: <li> Converted more packet handling methods to CBB, which improves
406: resiliency when generating TLS messages.
407: <li> Completed TLS extension handling rewrite, improving consistency of
408: checks for malformed and duplicate extensions.
409: <li>Rewrote ASN1_TYPE_{get,set}_octetstring() using templated ASN.1.
410: This removes the last remaining use of the old M_ASN1_* macros
411: (asn1_mac.h) from API that needs to continue to exist.
412: <li> Added support for client-side session resumption in libtls.
413: A libtls client can specify a session file descriptor (a regular
414: file with appropriate ownership and permissions) and libtls will
415: manage reading and writing of session data across TLS handshakes.
416: <li> Improved support for strict alignment on ARMv7 architectures,
417: conditionally enabling assembly in those cases.
418: <li> Fixed a memory leak in libtls when reusing a tls_config.
419: <li> Merged more DTLS support into the regular TLS code path, removing
420: duplicated code.

795: The <i>ports/</i> directory represents a CVS checkout of our ports.
796: As with our complete source tree, our ports tree is available via
797: <a href="anoncvs.html">AnonCVS</a>.
798: So, in order to keep up to date with the -stable branch, you must make
799: the <i>ports/</i> tree available on a read-write medium and update the tree
800: with a command like:
801:
802: <blockquote><pre>
803: # <b>cd /usr/ports</b>
804: # <b>cvs -d anoncvs@server.openbsd.org:/cvs update -Pd -rOPENBSD_6_3</b>
805: </pre></blockquote>
806:
807: [Of course, you must replace the server name here with a nearby anoncvs
808: server.]
809: <p>
810: Note that most ports are available as packages on our mirrors. Updated
811: ports for the 6.3 release will be made available if problems arise.
812: <p>
813: If you're interested in seeing a port added, would like to help out, or just
814: would like to know more, the mailing list
815: <a href="mail.html">ports@openbsd.org</a> is a good place to know.
