Paul Bakkerb6ecaf52011-04-19 14:29:23 +000016Features
17 * Added additional Cipher Block Modes to symmetric ciphers
18 (AES CTR, Camellia CTR, XTEA CBC) including the option to
19 enable and disable individual modes when needed

Paul Bakkerb6ecaf52011-04-19 14:29:23 +000027
Paul Bakker23986e52011-04-24 08:57:21 +000028Changes
29 * Major argument / variable rewrite. Introduced use of size_t
30 instead of int for buffer lengths and loop variables for
Paul Bakkera755ca12011-04-24 09:11:17 +000031 better unsigned / signed use. Renamed internal bigint types
32 t_int and t_dbl to t_uint and t_udbl in the process
Paul Bakker6c591fa2011-05-05 11:49:20 +000033 * mpi_init() and mpi_free() now only accept a single MPI
34 argument and do not accept variable argument lists anymore.
Paul Bakker9d781402011-05-09 16:17:09 +000035 * The error codes have been remapped and combining error codes
36 is now done with a PLUS instead of an OR as error codes
37 used are negative.
Paul Bakker831a7552011-05-18 13:32:51 +000038 * Changed behaviour of net_read(), ssl_fetch_input() and ssl_recv().
39 net_recv() now returns 0 on EOF instead of
40 POLARSSL_ERR_NET_CONN_RESET. ssl_fetch_input() returns
41 POLARSSL_ERR_SSL_CONN_EOF on an EOF from its f_recv() function.
42 ssl_read() returns 0 if a POLARSSL_ERR_SSL_CONN_EOF is received
43 after the handshake.
44 * Network functions now return POLARSSL_ERR_NET_WANT_READ or
45 POLARSSL_ERR_NET_WANT_WRITE instead of the ambiguous
46 POLARSSL_ERR_NET_TRY_AGAIN
