Rather than the length of the top-level CBB, which is kind of odd when ASN.1
length prefixes are not yet determined, return the number of bytes written to
the CBB so far. This can be computed without increasing the size of CBB at all.
Have offset and pending_*.
This means functions which take in a CBB as argument will not be sensitive to
whether the CBB is a top-level or child CBB. The extensions logic had to be
careful to only ever compare differences of lengths, which was awkward.
The reversal will also allow for the following pattern in the future, once
CBB_add_space is split into, say, CBB_reserve and CBB_did_write and we add a
CBB_data:
uint8_t *signature;
size_t signature_len = 0;
if (!CBB_add_asn1(out, &cert, CBB_ASN1_SEQUENCE) ||
/* Emit the TBSCertificate. */
!CBB_add_asn1(&cert, &tbs_cert, CBS_ASN1_SEQUENCE) ||
!CBB_add_tbs_cert_stuff(&tbs_cert, stuff) ||
!CBB_flush(&cert) ||
/* Feed it into md_ctx. */
!EVP_DigestSignInit(&md_ctx, NULL, EVP_sha256(), NULL, pkey) ||
!EVP_DigestSignUpdate(&md_ctx, CBB_data(&cert), CBB_len(&cert)) ||
/* Emit the signature algorithm. */
!CBB_add_asn1(&cert, &sig_alg, CBS_ASN1_SEQUENCE) ||
!CBB_add_sigalg_stuff(&sig_alg, other_stuff) ||
/* Emit the signature. */
!EVP_DigestSignFinal(&md_ctx, NULL, &signature_len) ||
!CBB_reserve(&cert, &signature, signature_len) ||
!EVP_DigestSignFinal(&md_ctx, signature, &signature_len) ||
!CBB_did_write(&cert, signature_len)) {
goto err;
}
(Were TBSCertificate not the first field, we'd still have to sample
CBB_len(&cert), but at least that's reasonable straight-forward. The
alternative would be if CBB_data and CBB_len somehow worked on
recently-invalidated CBBs, but that would go wrong once the invalidated CBB's
parent flushed and possibly shifts everything.)
And similar for signing ServerKeyExchange.
