Re: [PATCH] nettle: Update to version 3.8.1

Reviewed-by: Peter Müller peter.mueller@ipfire.org

• Update from version 3.7.3 to 3.8.1
• Update of rootfile
• Changelog 3.8.1 release This is a bugfix release, fixing a few portability issues reported for Nettle-3.8. Bug fixes:
  • Avoid non-posix m4 argument references in the chacha implementation for arm64, powerpc64 and s390x. Reported by Christian Weisgerber, fix contributed by Mamone Tarsha.
  • Use explicit .machine pseudo-ops where needed in s390x assembly files. Bug report by Andreas K. Huettel, fix contributed by Mamone Tarsha.
  Optimizations:
  • Implemented runtime detection of cpu features for OpenBSD on arm64. Contributed by Christian Weisgerber.
  The new version is intended to be fully source and binary compatible with Nettle-3.6. The shared library names are libnettle.so.8.6 and libhogweed.so.6.6, with sonames libnettle.so.8 and libhogweed.so.6. 3.8 release This release includes a couple of new features, and many performance improvements. It adds assembly code for two more architectures: ARM64 and S390x. The new version is intended to be fully source and binary compatible with Nettle-3.6. The shared library names are libnettle.so.8.5 and libhogweed.so.6.5, with sonames libnettle.so.8 and libhogweed.so.6. New features:
  • AES keywrap (RFC 3394), contributed by Nicolas Mora.
  • SM3 hash function, contributed by Tianjia Zhang.
  • New functions cbc_aes128_encrypt, cbc_aes192_encrypt, cbc_aes256_encrypt. On processors where AES is fast enough, e.g., x86_64 with aesni instructions, the overhead of using Nettle's general cbc_encrypt can be significant. The new functions can be implemented in assembly, to do multiple blocks with reduced per-block overhead. Note that there's no corresponding new decrypt functions, since the general cbc_decrypt doesn't suffer from the same performance problem.
  Bug fixes:
  • Fix fat builds for x86_64 windows, these appear to never have worked.
  Optimizations:
  • New ARM64 implementation of AES, GCM, Chacha, SHA1 and SHA256, for processors supporting crypto extensions. Great speedups, and fat builds are supported. Contributed by Mamone Tarsha.
  • New s390x implementation of AES, GCM, Chacha, memxor, SHA1, SHA256, SHA512 and SHA3. Great speedups, and fat builds are supported. Contributed by Mamone Tarsha.
  • New PPC64 assembly for ecc modulo/redc operations, contributed by Amitay Isaacs, Martin Schwenke and Alastair D´Silva.
  • The x86_64 AES implementation using aesni instructions has been reorganized with one separate function per key size, each interleaving the processing of two blocks at a time (when the caller processes multiple blocks with each call). This gives a modest performance improvement on some processors.
  • Rewritten and faster x86_64 poly1305 assembly.
  Known issues:
  • Nettle's testsuite doesn't work out-of-the-box on recent MacOS, due to /bin/sh discarding the DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable. Nettle's test scripts handle this in some cases, but currently fails the test cases that are themselves written as /bin/sh scripts. As a workaround, use make check EMULATOR='env DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=$(TEST_SHLIB_DIR)'
  Miscellaneous:
  • Updated manual to current makeinfo conventions, with no explicit node pointers. Generate pdf version with texi2pdf, to get working hyper links.
  • Added square root functions for NIST ecc curves, as a preparation for supporting compact point representation.
  • Reworked internal GCM/ghash interfaces, simplifying assembly implementations. Deleted unused GCM C implementation variants with less than 8-bit lookup table.
