* Enable ML-KEM by default in build systems (autoconf and CMake)
* Only allow three to-be-standardized hybrid PQ/T combinations by
default
* Use X25519MLKEM768 as the default KeyShare in the ClientHello (if user
does not override that). When Curve25519 is disabled, then either
WOLFSSL_SECP384R1MLKEM1024 or WOLFSSL_SECP256R1MLKEM768 is used as
default depending on the ECC configuration
* Disable standalone ML-KEM in supported groups by default (enable with
--enable-tls-mlkem-standalone)
* Disable extra OQS-based hybrid PQ/T curves by default and gate
behind --enable-experimental (enable with --enable-extra-pqc-hybrids)
* Reorder the SupportedGroups extension to reflect the preferences
* Reorder the preferredGroup array to also reflect the same preferences
* Add async support for ML-KEM hybrids
OCSP Responder Core API:
- Add new public API for creating and managing an OCSP responder
- Add public wrappers for internal OCSP request/response functions
- OcspRespCheck: fix check when authorized responder is loaded into CM
Header Cleanup:
- Remove circular dependency when including `#include <wolfssl/wolfcrypt/asn.h>` from wolfssl/wolfcrypt/ecc.h and wolfssl/wolfcrypt/rsa.h
OCSP Responder Example (examples/ocsp_responder/):
- Add a command-line OCSP responder for interoperability testing with OpenSSL's `openssl ocsp` client
Test Scripts (scripts/):
- ocsp-responder-openssl-interop.test: Tests wolfSSL OCSP responder with `openssl ocsp` client
- ocsp-stapling-with-wolfssl-responder.test: Tests wolfSSL OCSP responder when doing OCSP stapling
Certificate Infrastructure (certs/ocsp/):
- Add DER-format certificates and keys for OCSP testing
- Update renewcerts.sh to generate DER versions
Known Limitations (documented in src/ocsp.c header comment):
- Single request/response per OCSP exchange only
- Key-hash responder ID only (no name-based responder ID)
- No singleExtensions support
ML-DSA: check pointer to the y parameter has not be faulted.
ML-KEM: to harden against faultiong, use a different buffer for private
seed, sigma, and add a check that the buffer was copied correctly.
SHA-3: fix size of check variables.
* add --enable-wolfentropy as a synonym for --enable-wolfEntropy;
* avoid -Wno-deprecated-enum-enum-conversion when KERNEL_MODE_DEFAULTS, to work around old gcc with broken results from AX_CHECK_COMPILE_FLAG();
* rework help messages for several synonym options to refer to the canonical option (--enable-linuxkm-pie, --enable-kyber, --enable-dilithium, --enable-amdrand, --enable-entropy-memues).
### `wolfssl/internal.h`
- **`InternalTicket` struct gains a flexible array member**: A new `peerCert[]` field (with a preceding `peerCertLen[2]`) is added to `InternalTicket`. This allows the peer's DER-encoded certificate to be stored directly inside the session ticket.
- **`ExternalTicket` struct becomes variable-length**: The `enc_ticket` field is changed from a fixed-size array to a flexible array member (`byte enc_ticket[]`). The `mac` field is removed from the struct — the MAC is now placed dynamically after the encrypted data in `enc_ticket`.
### `src/internal.c`
- The `GetRecordHeader` function now only adds `MAX_COMP_EXTRA` to the maximum allowed record size when `ssl->options.usingCompression` is true, tightening the length validation. The max fragment length extension check is now much stricter.
- **Peer certificate is serialized into the ticket**: During ticket creation, the code attempts to find the peer certificate from `ssl->peerCert` or from `ssl->session->chain` (fallback). If found and within `MAX_TICKET_PEER_CERT_SZ`, it's copied into `it->peerCert`. DTLS is explicitly excluded (peer cert length set to 0) to keep ticket size small for MTU constraints. If `HAVE_MAX_FRAGMENT` is defined and max fragment is not `MAX_RECORD_SIZE` for TLS 1.3, the cert is also skipped since `SendTls13NewSessionTicket` doesn't support fragmentation yet.
- **Peer certificate restoration from ticket**: On successful ticket decryption, if the ticket contains a peer certificate (`peerCertLen > 0`), it is decoded back into `ssl->peerCert` via `ParseCertRelative`/`CopyDecodedToX509`, and also added to `ssl->session->chain` via `AddSessionCertToChain`.
- The `CLEAR_ASN_NO_PEM_HEADER_ERROR` macro was rewritten to loop and remove all consecutive PEM no-start-line errors (not just the last one), wrapped in a `do { ... } while(0)` for safety.
- The `SendTicket` function is simplified to use `SendHandshakeMsg` to support fragmenting the larger ticket.
---
### `src/x509.c`
- `loadX509orX509REQFromPemBio` now accepts `TRUSTED_CERT_TYPE` in addition to `CERT_TYPE` and `CERTREQ_TYPE`.
- **Streaming BIO support**: When `wolfSSL_BIO_get_len()` returns ≤ 0 (e.g., pipes/FIFOs), the function no longer returns an error. Instead, it sets an initial buffer of `MAX_X509_SIZE` and dynamically grows (doubling) up to `MAX_BIO_READ_BUFFER` (`MAX_X509_SIZE * 16`) as data is read byte-by-byte.
- **Alternate footer detection**: For `TRUSTED_CERT_TYPE`, the PEM reader also checks for the regular `CERT_TYPE` footer (`-----END CERTIFICATE-----`) in addition to the trusted cert footer (`-----END TRUSTED CERTIFICATE-----`), so it can parse either format.
- Removed two lines that set `cert->srcIdx` to `SIGALGO_SEQ` offset. This makes `cert->srcIdx` reflect the end of parsed certificate data. This is used by `loadX509orX509REQFromBuffer` to detect where auxiliary trust data begins in trusted certificates.
---
### `src/ssl_sk.c`
- Added a `STACK_TYPE_X509_CRL` case to `wolfssl_sk_dup_data` that calls `wolfSSL_X509_CRL_dup` for deep-copying CRL stack elements. Previously, `STACK_TYPE_X509_CRL` fell through to the unsupported default case.
---
### `wolfssl/openssl/ssl.h`
- `sk_X509_dup` now maps to `wolfSSL_shallow_sk_dup` (was `wolfSSL_sk_dup`/deep copy). This matches OpenSSL's behavior where `sk_X509_dup` does a shallow copy.
- `sk_SSL_CIPHER_dup` similarly changed to `wolfSSL_shallow_sk_dup`.
---
### `src/ssl_api_cert.c`
- When `ssl->ourCert` is `NULL` and the SSL owns its cert, the function now checks if `ssl->ctx->ourCert` points to the same certificate (by comparing DER buffers). If so, it returns the ctx's `X509` pointer directly. This maintains pointer compatibility for applications (like nginx OCSP stapling) that use the `X509*` from `SSL_CTX_use_certificate` as a lookup key.
### `src/bio.c`
- When `wolfssl_file_len` returns `WOLFSSL_BAD_FILETYPE` (now returned for pipes/FIFOs), `wolfSSL_BIO_get_len` treats it as length 0 instead of propagating the error.
---
### `tests/test-maxfrag.conf` and `tests/test-maxfrag-dtls.conf`
- Removed `DHE-RSA-AES256-GCM-SHA384` test entries because the ClientKeyExchange doesn't fit in the selected max fragment length.

## Summary
- Add non-blocking (incremental) Curve25519 key generation and shared secret via `WC_X25519_NONBLOCK`, modeled after the existing ECC non-blocking pattern (`WC_ECC_NONBLOCK`)
- Implement `curve25519_nb()` and `fe_inv__distinct_nb()` in `fe_low_mem.c` as state-machine variants that return `FP_WOULDBLOCK` to yield after each field multiply
- Add `wc_curve25519_set_nonblock()` API to attach/detach non-blocking context to a key
- Integrate X25519 non-blocking with TLS 1.2/1.3 key share generation and shared secret in `tls.c` and `internal.c` (behind `WC_X25519_NONBLOCK && WOLFSSL_ASYNC_CRYPT_SW`)
- Add `--enable-curve25519=nonblock` configure option (auto-enables `--enable-asynccrypt` and `--enable-asynccrypt-sw`)
- Add X25519 async software dispatch cases in `async.c` and types in `async.h`
- Fix async guard in `curve25519.c` to require `WOLFSSL_ASYNC_CRYPT_SW` (matching other algorithms)
- Overhaul `examples/async/` client/server: non-blocking I/O via `WOLFSSL_USER_IO`, standalone `Makefile`, X25519/ECC mode selection, CI-friendly ready-file sync
- Add `examples/configs/user_settings_curve25519nonblock.h` and CI coverage in `os-check.yml` and new `async-examples.yml` workflow
- Add wolfcrypt test and API test coverage for X25519 non-blocking
* Minor fixes to the CMakeLists.txt
* Add more options to the CMake infrastructure already present in the
autoconf infrastructure
* An autoconf build now also generates and installs files required to
consume the installed wolfssl library via CMake.
* Added test for autoconf-CMake interworking
Work is mostly done by Codex and Curser.
