Functions which lose object reuse and need auditing:
- d2i_ECParameters
- d2i_ECPrivateKey
This adds a handful of bytestring-based APIs to handle EC key
serialization. Deprecate all the old serialization APIs. Notes:
- An EC_KEY has additional state that controls its encoding, enc_flags
and conv_form. conv_form is left alone, but enc_flags in the new API
is an explicit parameter.
- d2i_ECPrivateKey interpreted its T** argument unlike nearly every
other d2i function. This is an explicit EC_GROUP parameter in the new
function.
- The new specified curve code is much stricter and should parse enough
to uniquely identify the curve.
- I've not bothered with a new version of i2d_ECParameters. It just
writes an OID. This may change later when decoupling from the giant
OID table.
- Likewise, I've not bothered with new APIs for the public key since the
EC_POINT APIs should suffice.
- Previously, d2i_ECPrivateKey would not call EC_KEY_check_key and it
was possible for the imported public and private key to mismatch. It
now calls it.
