Test cases 6 and 7 background the example server and then "wait" for it
to exit. When the server occasionally fails to exit (a timing race under
heavy parallel CI load), the script blocks until the job's
timeout-minutes, cancelling the whole trackmemory run - seen
consistently on the all-wolfentropy config.
Wrap those two servers in "timeout -s KILL 2m" (as scripts/dtls.test
already does) so a stuck server is killed and the test fails fast instead
of timing out the whole job.
Replace the one-runner-per-configuration matrices across the
make-check workflow family with a generic pooled runner,
.github/scripts/parallel-make-check.py. Each workflow keeps its
configuration list as JSON next to the invocation; one runner (or a
small fixed set of shards, balanced by measured per-config minutes)
builds every config in its own out-of-tree (VPATH) build directory off
a single checkout/autogen, on a pool of one-per-CPU worker threads,
longest first. Concurrent checks are isolated with bubblewrap network
namespaces, compilations are cached with ccache, the first failure
aborts the rest (fail-fast, with --no-fail-fast to run everything),
and per-config timings plus pool efficiency land in the step summary.
Failure logs upload as artifacts. smoke-test.yml is likewise reworked
into a single pooled job that runs its nine configs on one runner.
Converted workflows (runner jobs per full pass):
os-check.yml 101 -> 8 (92 Ubuntu configs -> 4 shards;
the macOS matrix, the user-settings jobs and
the standalone
macos-apple-native-cert-validation.yml fold
into one macOS runner; Windows unchanged)
pq-all.yml 21 -> 2 shards
disable-pk-algs.yml 15 -> 1
wolfCrypt-Wconversion.yml 11 -> 1
trackmemory.yml 7 -> 1
cryptocb-only.yml 8 -> 1 (incl. the two new SHA512 entries)
multi-compiler.yml 6 -> 1
smallStackSize.yml 6 -> 1
multi-arch.yml 6 -> 1
async.yml 5 -> 1
psk.yml 5 -> 1
no-malloc.yml 3 -> 1
wolfsm.yml 3 -> 1
opensslcoexist.yml 2 -> 1
Measured against current upstream passing runs (job execution time,
queue excluded): ~200 runner jobs / ~374 runner-minutes per full pass
become 23 jobs / ~168 runner-minutes, with more coverage than before.
multi-arch's old matrix combined an "include" list of four
architectures with an "opts" axis; GitHub's include-merge rules made
each arch entry overwrite the previous one, so only the armel
combinations actually ran. The pooled list restores the intended
aarch64/armhf/riscv64 coverage (23 combinations; riscv64 x sp-math is
omitted as invalid - configure rejects sp-math without SP, and
--enable-riscv-asm, unlike --enable-sp-asm, does not bring SP in).
Out-of-tree build fixes this depends on:
- Makefile.am: symlink the read-only test data (certs/, tests/ config
files, sniffer captures and helpers, examples/crypto_policies,
input, quit) into the build tree via a BUILT_SOURCES stamp, removed
again in distclean-local. ChangeToWolfRoot() and the script tests
resolve everything relative to the working directory, so out-of-tree
make check and make distcheck now pass.
- scripts/multi-msg-record.py: locate the client binary from the build
tree working directory rather than the script's source directory.
- configure.ac + wolfssl/include.am: run
support/gen-debug-trace-error-codes.sh from $srcdir; it reads the
error-code headers from the source tree and generates into the build
tree.
- tests/swdev: a WOLFBUILD variable points the sub-make at the build
tree for the configure-generated headers (wolfssl/options.h,
wolfssl/version.h); the in-tree-only guards are dropped.
Portions of PR #10649 are incorporated: the cross-platform
ccache-setup composite action, repository_owner gates on check-headers
and check-source-text, the docs-only paths-ignore on os-check, and the
libspdm timeout bumps.
authorized any responder issued by an ancestor of the target's issuer;
RFC 6960 4.2.2.2 requires direct issuance by the CA identified in the
request.
- Remove CheckOcspResponderChain() and WOLFSSL_NO_OCSP_ISSUER_CHAIN_CHECK.
- Drop now-unused vp parameter from CheckOcspResponder() and the
OcspRespCheck() helper; cascade through template and non-template
paths.
OCSP test blobs:
- Re-sign resp_server1_cert with intermediate1-ca (CA-direct path).
- Add resp_server1_cert_ancestor_responder for the negative test.
- Embed server1_cert_pem[] in test_ocsp_test_blobs.h so the new test
runs under NO_FILESYSTEM; matching entry added to
create_ocsp_test_blobs.py.
- Regenerate response[] in test_certman.c with intermediate1-ca as
signer; recipe switched from Wireshark export to openssl -respout
+ xxd -i for reproducibility.
- Fix self-XOR in test_wolfSSL_CertManagerCheckOCSPResponse so the
serial byte actually flips (^= 0xFF).
Live OCSP coverage:
- Add ocsp-responder-int1 (delegated responder issued directly by
intermediate1-ca, with id-kp-OCSPSigning EKU) for the
responder->intermediate->root chain.
- scripts/ocsp-stapling.test: intermediate1 responder switched to
ocsp-responder-int1 (delegated path).
- scripts/ocsp-stapling2.test, scripts/ocsp-stapling_tls13multi.test:
intermediate2 and intermediate3 sign their OCSP responses with
their own CA keys (CA-direct path); root block unchanged
(ocsp-responder-cert is still RFC-compliant for root-issued certs).
- .github/workflows/ocsp.yml: server1 OCSP responder switched to
ocsp-responder-int1 to match the cert chain.
- New test_ocsp_ancestor_responder_rejected confirms the
ancestor-issued response is rejected with OCSP_LOOKUP_FAIL.
The test certs are RSA; if NO_RSA is defined the client can neither
load nor verify them. Detect "RSA not supported" in client -? help
and exit 77 (SKIP) before tlslite-ng tries to use the RSA chain.
multi-msg-record.py: auto-detect the CA cert format the wolfSSL client
build accepts (PEM or DER) from the default shown in client -? help.
OPENSSL_EXTRA-style builds need PEM; NO_CODING builds need DER.
ocsp-stapling.test: skip the external login.live.com connection unless
WOLFSSL_EXTERNAL_TEST is explicitly enabled (matches external.test /
google.test convention). Local OCSP tests still run.
ocsp-responder-openssl-interop.test: use ${TMPDIR:-/tmp} for mktemp
templates so the test works when /tmp is not writable.
wolfSSL builds configured with --enable-coding=no cannot parse PEM
because base64 decoding is disabled. Switch the example client's -A
argument to ca-cert.der so the test works in both PEM-enabled and
PEM-disabled builds.
Wire the stateful hash-based signature schemes HSS/LMS (RFC 8554) and
XMSS / XMSS^MT (RFC 8391) into the X.509 cert-verification path per
RFC 9802.
asn:
- Register id-alg-hss-lms-hashsig (1.2.840.113549.1.9.16.3.17),
id-alg-xmss-hashsig (1.3.6.1.5.5.7.6.34) and id-alg-xmssmt-hashsig
(1.3.6.1.5.5.7.6.35) in oid_sum.h, asn.c and asn1_oid_sum.pl.
- Plumb the new keyOIDs through GetCertKey, SigOidMatchesKeyOid,
HashForSignature, FreeSignatureCtx and ConfirmSignature so leaf
and CA certificates parse, load and verify end-to-end.
- Rename IsSigAlgoECC -> IsSigAlgoNoParams; the function has tested
"AlgorithmIdentifier omits NULL parameters" since PQC algos were
added, and HSS/LMS + XMSS only made the original name more
misleading.
wc_lms / wc_xmss:
- Add wc_XmssKey_ImportPubRaw_ex which derives parameters from the
4-byte OID prefix at the start of the raw public key, taking an
is_xmssmt hint to disambiguate the overlapping XMSS / XMSS^MT OID
spaces.
- Extend wc_LmsKey_ImportPubRaw with the same auto-derive from
u32str(L) || lmsType || lmOtsType when key->params is NULL; this
also fixes a latent NULL-deref when the legacy precondition was
violated.
- Reject WC_*_STATE_OK in both ImportPubRaw paths so re-importing
on a private-key-loaded handle can't desync priv/pub.
- Tighten wc_XmssKey_Verify's length check to strict equality,
matching wc_LmsKey_Verify and the documented contract of using
wc_XmssKey_GetSigLen for the buffer size.
tests / fixtures:
- Bouncy Castle 1.81 fixtures in certs/lms and certs/xmss covering
every supported parameter set, plus CA->leaf chains per family
and one BC-native LMS fixture as a cross-impl interop gate.
- New api tests verify each fixture end-to-end, tamper TBS and
signature bytes, exercise the wolfCrypt-level negative paths
(NOT_COMPILED_IN, BUFFER_E, BAD_FUNC_ARG, BAD_STATE_E, OID/family
mismatch, partial-write invariants, lenient VERIFYONLY re-import,
strict sigLen check) and confirm the outer signatureAlgorithm
OID is rejected when it disagrees with the SPKI in both
XMSS<->XMSS^MT directions.
wolfcrypt/src/asn.c, wolfssl/wolfcrypt/asn.h, src/ssl.c, wolfssl/ssl.h: move wolfssl_local_IsValidFQDN() from ASN.1 layer (where it has no users and is gated out in lean PSK builds) to TLS layer (where its users are);
scripts/crl-revoked.test: use `cp --symbolic-link` opportunistically but fall back to `cp -p`.
Replace the liboqs-based pre-standardization SPHINCS+ implementation
with the native FIPS 205 SLH-DSA implementation across the
certificate / ASN.1 / X.509 layers, and add SLH-DSA-rooted test
certificates plus TLS 1.3 .conf scenarios that exercise the new
verification path. All liboqs SPHINCS+ code is removed.
This enables SLH-DSA for certificate chain authentication: CA
certificates signed with SLH-DSA, certificate signature verification
against an SLH-DSA root. TLS 1.3 entity authentication via
CertificateVerify with SLH-DSA will be added in a follow-up PR.
Follows RFC 9909 (X.509 Algorithm Identifiers for SLH-DSA) and
NIST FIPS 205. Supports both SHAKE and SHA-2 parameter families
across all twelve standardized variants.
DER codec:
- New PrivateKeyDecode, PublicKeyDecode, KeyToDer, PrivateKeyToDer,
PublicKeyToDer with RFC 9909 encoding (bare OCTET STRING containing
4*n raw bytes = SK.seed || SK.prf || PK.seed || PK.root, no nested
wrapper). OID auto-detection across all twelve SHAKE / SHA-2 variants.
- PublicKeyDecode raw-bytes fast path mirrors wc_Falcon_PublicKeyDecode
and wc_Dilithium_PublicKeyDecode so callers (notably
wolfssl_x509_make_der and ConfirmSignature, which pass the raw
BIT STRING contents stashed by StoreKey) decode correctly. Honours
the caller's *inOutIdx start offset.
- Error paths in Private/PublicKeyDecode preserve params/flags/
inOutIdx and only ForceZero the buffer half each helper actually
writes; skip the wipe entirely on BAD_LENGTH_E (no bytes touched).
- ImportPublic uses |= on flags so a Private-then-Public import
sequence retains FLAG_PRIVATE.
OID dispatch:
- 12 standardized NIST OIDs (6 SHAKE + 6 SHA-2) per RFC 9909. The
pre-standardization OID-collision mechanism is removed since NIST
OIDs do not collide.
- wc_SlhDsaOidToParam / wc_SlhDsaOidToCertType return NOT_COMPILED_IN
(rather than -1) for recognised SLH-DSA OIDs whose parameter set
isn't built; wc_IsSlhDsaOid recognises both. The x509 dispatch
surfaces this as a precise diagnostic instead of the generic
"No public key found".
- wc_GetKeyOID picks a placeholder parameter from whatever variant is
compiled in and #errors at compile time if none is.
- asn_orig.c EncodeCert / EncodeCertReq accept SHA-2 SLH-DSA keyTypes
alongside SHAKE.
Tests and fixtures:
- Test cert chain in certs/slhdsa/: SLH-DSA-SHAKE-128s and
SLH-DSA-SHA2-128s self-signed roots that sign reused ML-DSA-44
entity keys (server + client), plus the gen script
(gen-slhdsa-mldsa-certs.sh, OpenSSL >= 3.5).
- New TLS 1.3 .conf scenarios under tests/suites.c dispatch:
test-tls13-slhdsa-shake.conf, test-tls13-slhdsa-sha2.conf, and a
wrong-CA negative test test-tls13-slhdsa-fail.conf.
- DER round-trip and on-disk decode tests; bench_slhdsa_*_key.der
fixtures regenerated with wolfSSL's own encoder so the codec is
pinned to RFC 9909.
- New unit test test_wc_slhdsa_x509_i2d_roundtrip exercises the raw
PublicKeyDecode entry point that wolfssl_x509_make_der relies on.
- test_wc_slhdsa_check_key now tests both Public-then-Private and
Private-then-Public import orderings.
Build / ABI:
- DYNAMIC_TYPE_SPHINCS = 98 kept as RESERVED with a tombstone comment
for ABI stability; new code should use DYNAMIC_TYPE_SLHDSA (107).
- All build system / IDE project files updated; SPHINCS+ sources,
headers, and test data removed.
- Dead bench_slhdsa_*_key arrays removed from gencertbuf.pl and
certs_test.h; the .der files on disk drive the decode tests.
scripts/pem.test:
* add setup for WOLFSSL_NO_DER_TO_PEM,
* exit early with skip code if executable dependencies are missing or WOLFSSL_NO_PEM or NO_CODING, and
* add clean skip clauses to convert_to_pem(), compare_pem(), and pem_der_exp(), if WOLFSSL_NO_DER_TO_PEM.
Add NETWORK_UNSHARE_HELPER/bwrap wrapping to benchmark.test,
openssl_srtp.test, and sniffer-gen.sh to isolate network namespaces and
prevent port collisions when tests run concurrently. sniffer-gen.sh uses
--cap-add ALL (like dtls.test) since it runs tcpdump. ocsp-stapling.test
is excluded because it connects to external servers (login.live.com).
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
Correct the logic for checking if the client and server examples are compiled
in the test scripts. The previous logic was inverted, causing the tests to
always skip if the examples *were* compiled.
Mostly combinations of NO_WOLFSSL_CLIENT, NO_WOLFSSL_SERVER and
WOLFSSL_NO_CLIENT_AUTH were failing.
Added configurations to CI loop.
wc_AesGcmDecryptFinal: use WC_AES_BLOCK_SIZE to satisfy compiler.
New sum algorithm has no clashes at this time.
Old algorithm enabled by defining: WOLFSSL_OLD_OID_SUM.
New oid_sum.h file generated with scripts/asn1_oid_sum.pl.
Added bunch of OID names into asn1 example.
