For the situation where the mbedTLS device has limited RAM, but the
other end of the connection doesn't support the max_fragment_length
extension. To be spec-compliant, mbedTLS has to keep a 16384 byte
incoming buffer. However the outgoing buffer can be made smaller without
breaking spec compliance, and we save some RAM.
See comments in include/mbedtls/config.h for some more details.
(The lower limit of outgoing buffer size is the buffer size used during
handshake/cert negotiation. As the handshake is half-duplex it might
even be possible to store this data in the "incoming" buffer during the
handshake, which would save even more RAM - but it would also be a lot
hackier and error-prone. I didn't really explore this possibility, but
thought I'd mention it here in case someone sees this later on a mission
to jam mbedTLS into an even tinier RAM footprint.)
It's undesirable to have users of the SSL layer check for an error code
specific to a lower-level layer, both out of general layering principles, and
also because if we later make another crypto module gain resume capabilities,
we would need to change the contract again (checking for a new module-specific
error code).
Summary of merge conflicts:
include/mbedtls/ecdh.h -> documentation style
include/mbedtls/ecdsa.h -> documentation style
include/mbedtls/ecp.h -> alt style, new error codes, documentation style
include/mbedtls/error.h -> new error codes
library/error.c -> new error codes (generated anyway)
library/ecp.c:
- code of an extracted function was changed
library/ssl_cli.c:
- code addition on one side near code change on the other side
(ciphersuite validation)
library/x509_crt.c -> various things
- top fo file: helper structure added near old zeroize removed
- documentation of find_parent_in()'s signature: improved on one side,
added arguments on the other side
- documentation of find_parent()'s signature: same as above
- verify_chain(): variables initialised later to give compiler an
opportunity to warn us if not initialised on a code path
- find_parent(): funcion structure completely changed, for some reason git
tried to insert a paragraph of the old structure...
- merge_flags_with_cb(): data structure changed, one line was fixed with a
cast to keep MSVC happy, this cast is already in the new version
- in verify_restratable(): adjacent independent changes (function
signature on one line, variable type on the next)
programs/ssl/ssl_client2.c:
- testing for IN_PROGRESS return code near idle() (event-driven):
don't wait for data in the the socket if ECP_IN_PROGRESS
tests/data_files/Makefile: adjacent independent additions
tests/suites/test_suite_ecdsa.data: adjacent independent additions
tests/suites/test_suite_x509parse.data: adjacent independent additions

and in ssl_cli.c : unsigned char gets promoted to signed integer
In mbedtls_ssl_get_key_exchange_md_tls1_2, add an output parameter for
the hash length. The code that calls this function can currently do
without it, but it will need the hash length in the future, when
adding support for a third-party callback to calculate the signature
of the hash.
This commit removes all the static occurrencies of the function
mbedtls_zeroize() in each of the individual .c modules. Instead the
function has been moved to utils.h that is included in each of the
modules.
Conflict resolution:
* ChangeLog: put the new entries in their rightful place.
* library/x509write_crt.c: the change in development was whitespace
only, so use the one from the iotssl-1251 feature branch.
Change ssl_parse_server_hello() so that the parsed first four random
bytes from the ServerHello message are printed by the TLS client as
a Unix timestamp regardless of whether MBEDTLS_DEBUG_C is defined. The
debug message will only be printed if debug_level is 3 or higher.
Unconditionally enabling the debug print enabled testing of this value.

As done by previous commits for ECC and ECDSA:
- use explicit state assignments rather than increment
- always place the state update right before the operation label
This will make it easier to add restart support for other operations later if
desired.
SSL-specific changes:
- remove useless states: when the last restartable operation on a message is
complete, ssl->state is incremented already, so we don't need any additional
state update: ecrs_state is only meant to complement ssl->state
- rename remaining states consistently as <message>_<operation>
- move some labels closer to the actual operation when possible (no assignment
to variables used after the label between its previous and current position)
The fact that you needed to pass a pointer to mbedtls_ecdsa_restart_ctx (or
that you needed to know the key type of the PK context) was a breach of
abstraction.
Change the API (and callers) now, and the implementation will be changed in
the next commit.
- more consistent naming with ecrs prefix for everything
- always check it enabled before touching the rest
- rm duplicated code in parse_server_hello()
This is mainly for the benefit of SSL modules, which only supports restart in
a limited number of cases. In the other cases (ECDHE_PSK) it would currently
return ERR_ECP_IN_PROGRESS and the user would thus call ssl_handshake() again,
but the SSL code wouldn't handle state properly and things would go wrong in
possibly unexpected ways. This is undesirable, so it should be possible for
the SSL module to choose if ECDHE should behave the old or the new way.
Not that it also brings ECDHE more in line with the other modules which
already have that choice available (by passing a NULL or valid restart
context).
