439: length provided is 0 to match the OpenSSL behaviour. Issue noticed
1.36 tb 440: by Christian Heimes <christian@python.org>
1.29 beck 441: <li> Added support for many OpenSSL 1.0.2 and 1.1 APIs, based on
442: observations of real-world usage in applications. These are
443: implemented in parallel with existing OpenSSL 1.0.1 APIs - visibility
444: changes have not been made to existing structs, allowing code written
445: for older OpenSSL APIs to continue working.
446: <li> Extensive corrections, improvements, and additions to the
447: API documentation, including new public APIs from OpenSSL that had
448: no pre-existing documentation.
449: <li> Added support for automatic library initialization in libcrypto,
450: libssl, and libtls. Support for pthread_once or a compatible
451: equivalent is now required of the target operating system. As a
452: side-effect, minimum Windows support is Vista or higher.
453: <li> Converted more packet handling methods to CBB, which improves
454: resiliency when generating TLS messages.
455: <li> Completed TLS extension handling rewrite, improving consistency of
456: checks for malformed and duplicate extensions.
457: <li>Rewrote ASN1_TYPE_{get,set}_octetstring() using templated ASN.1.
458: This removes the last remaining use of the old M_ASN1_* macros
459: (asn1_mac.h) from API that needs to continue to exist.
460: <li> Added support for client-side session resumption in libtls.
461: A libtls client can specify a session file descriptor (a regular
462: file with appropriate ownership and permissions) and libtls will
463: manage reading and writing of session data across TLS handshakes.
464: <li> Improved support for strict alignment on ARMv7 architectures,
465: conditionally enabling assembly in those cases.
466: <li> Fixed a memory leak in libtls when reusing a tls_config.
467: <li> Merged more DTLS support into the regular TLS code path, removing
468: duplicated code.

778: the disk and boot with <i>boot disk:b</i>.

781: If nothing works, you can boot over the network as described in INSTALL.sparc64.

1.5 matthieu 788: If you already have an OpenBSD 6.2 system, and do not want to reinstall,
1.1 deraadt 789: upgrade instructions and advice can be found in the
790: <a href="faq/upgrade63.html">Upgrade Guide</a>.

795: <h3 id="sourcecode"><font color="#0000e0">Notes about the source code</font></h3>
796:
797: <tt>src.tar.gz</tt> contains a source archive starting at <tt>/usr/src</tt>.
798: This file contains everything you need except for the kernel sources,
799: which are in a separate archive.
800: To extract:
801:
802: <blockquote><pre>
803: # <b>mkdir -p /usr/src</b>
804: # <b>cd /usr/src</b>
805: # <b>tar xvfz /tmp/src.tar.gz</b>
806: </pre></blockquote>
807:
808: <tt>sys.tar.gz</tt> contains a source archive starting at <tt>/usr/src/sys</tt>.
809: This file contains all the kernel sources you need to rebuild kernels.
810: To extract:
811:
812: <blockquote><pre>
813: # <b>mkdir -p /usr/src/sys</b>
814: # <b>cd /usr/src</b>
815: # <b>tar xvfz /tmp/sys.tar.gz</b>
816: </pre></blockquote>
817:
818: Both of these trees are a regular CVS checkout. Using these trees it
819: is possible to get a head-start on using the anoncvs servers as
820: described <a href="anoncvs.html">here</a>.
821: Using these files
822: results in a much faster initial CVS update than you could expect from
823: a fresh checkout of the full OpenBSD source tree.

828: <h3 id="ports"><font color="#0000e0">Ports Tree</font></h3>
829:
830: A ports tree archive is also provided. To extract:
831:
832: <blockquote><pre>
833: # <b>cd /usr</b>
834: # <b>tar xvfz /tmp/ports.tar.gz</b>
835: </pre></blockquote>
836:
837: Go read the <a href="faq/ports/index.html">ports</a> page
838: if you know nothing about ports
839: at this point. This text is not a manual of how to use ports.
840: Rather, it is a set of notes meant to kickstart the user on the
841: OpenBSD ports system.
842: <p>
843: The <i>ports/</i> directory represents a CVS checkout of our ports.
844: As with our complete source tree, our ports tree is available via
845: <a href="anoncvs.html">AnonCVS</a>.
846: So, in order to keep up to date with the -stable branch, you must make
847: the <i>ports/</i> tree available on a read-write medium and update the tree
848: with a command like:
849:
850: <blockquote><pre>
851: # <b>cd /usr/ports</b>
852: # <b>cvs -d anoncvs@server.openbsd.org:/cvs update -Pd -rOPENBSD_6_3</b>
853: </pre></blockquote>
854:
855: [Of course, you must replace the server name here with a nearby anoncvs
856: server.]
857: <p>
858: Note that most ports are available as packages on our mirrors. Updated
859: ports for the 6.3 release will be made available if problems arise.
860: <p>
861: If you're interested in seeing a port added, would like to help out, or just
862: would like to know more, the mailing list
863: <a href="mail.html">ports@openbsd.org</a> is a good place to know.
