- Move openssl random provider to openssl.c and builtin provider
to internal.c
- Make px_random_bytes use Fortuna, instead of giving error.
- Retarget random.c to aquiring system randomness, for initial seeding
of Fortuna. There is ATM 2 functions for Windows,
reader from /dev/urandom and the regular time()/getpid() silliness.

to make. We ship the table file in the tarball and so this dependency
just opens file timestamp skew problems without doing anything useful.
(Not that it should hurt, either ... except for cross-compile builds.)
* test error handling
* add tests for des, 3des, cast5
* add some tests to blowfish, rijndael
* Makefile: ability to specify different tests for different crypto
libraries, so we can skip des, 3des and cast5 for builtin.

libmcrypt seems to dead, maintainer address bounces,
and cast-128 fails on 2 of the 3 test vectors from RFC2144.
So I see no reason to keep around stuff I don't trust
anymore.
Support for several crypto libraries is probably only
confusing to users, although it was good for initial
developing - it helped to find hidden assumptions and
forced me to create regression tests for all functionality.

Converted pgcrypto one too.
* Changed default randomness source to libc random()
That way pgcrypto does not have any external dependencies
and should work everywhere.
* Re-enabled pgcrypto build in contrib/makefile
* contrib/README update - there is more stuff than
only 'hash functions'
* Noted the libc random fact in README.pgcrypto

salt generation code. He also urged using better random source
and making possible to choose using bcrypt and xdes rounds more
easily. So, here's patch:
* For all salt generation, use Solar Designer's own code. This
is mostly due fact that his code is more fit for get_random_bytes()
style interface.
* New function: gen_salt(type, rounds). This lets specify iteration
count for algorithm.
* random.c: px_get_random_bytes() function.
Supported randomness soure: /dev/urandom, OpenSSL PRNG, libc random()
Default: /dev/urandom.
* Draft description of C API for pgcrypto functions.
New files: API, crypt-gensalt.c, random.c

under libdir, for a cleaner separation in the installation layout
and compatibility with binary packaging standards. Point backend's
default search location there. The contrib modules are also
installed in the said location, giving them the benefit of the
default search path as well. No changes in user interface
nevertheless.
* remove support for encode() as it is in main tree now
* remove krb5.c
* new 'PX library' architecture
* remove BSD license from my code to let the general
PostgreSQL one to apply
* md5, sha1: ANSIfy, use const where appropriate
* various other formatting and clarity changes
* hmac()
* UN*X-like crypt() - system or internal crypt
* Internal crypt: DES, Extended DES, MD5, Blowfish
crypt-des.c, crypt-md5.c from FreeBSD
crypt-blowfish.c from Solar Designer
* gen_salt() for crypt() - Blowfish, MD5, DES, Extended DES
* encrypt(), decrypt(), encrypt_iv(), decrypt_iv()
* Cipher support in mhash.c, openssl.c
* internal: Blowfish, Rijndael-128 ciphers
* blf.[ch], rijndael.[ch] from OpenBSD
* there will be generated file rijndael-tbl.inc.

Cygwin with the possible exception of mSQL-interface. Since I don't
have mSQL installed, I skipped this tool.
Except for dealing with a missing getopt.h (oid2name) and HUGE (seg),
the bulk of the patch uses the standard PostgreSQL approach to deal with
Windows DLL issues.
I tested the build aspect of this patch under Cygwin and Linux without
any ill affects. Note that I did not actually attempt to test the code
for functionality.
The procedure to apply the patch is as follows:
$ # save the attachment as /tmp/contrib.patch
$ # change directory to the top of the PostgreSQL source tree
$ patch -p0 </tmp/contrib.patch

* reverse the change #include <> -> "" in krb.c.
It _must not_ include files in "."
* Makefile update. Inconsistent var usage and SHLIB was
not set.
Now it should work with all external libs.

timing, I know :)) At the moment the digest() function returns
hexadecimal coded hash, but I want it to return pure binary. I
have also included functions encode() and decode() which support
'base64' and 'hex' encodings, so if anyone needs digest() in hex
he can do encode(digest(...), 'hex').
Main reason for it is "to do one thing and do it well" :)
Another reason is if someone needs really lot of digesting, in
the end he wants to store the binary not the hexadecimal result.
It is really silly to convert it to hex then back to binary
again. As I said if someone needs hex he can get it.
Well, and the real reason that I am doing encrypt()/decrypt()
functions and _they_ return binary. For testing I like to see
it in hex occasionally, but it is really wrong to let them
return hex. Only now it caught my eye that hex-coding in
digest() is wrong. When doing digest() I thought about 'common
case' but hacking with psql is probably _not_ the common case :)
