Support openssl 3.0.0 #633

Test failures seem to be unrelated to my changes |
|
Found few more tests that fail due to DES key use.. |

Hmm, I get: Complete build log with all versions of packages used and steps taken to reproduce. |

Please rebase for retesting |

@abbra, can you add a CI target for "{linux,macos,windows}-openssl3" or similar so we can get test coverage with OpenSSL 3 and 1.1.x at the same time? |

I have to push few more updates, sorry. There is an issue with rebasing my older patches around tests, so some of them aren't correct. |

OpenSSL 3.0 moves DES into a legacy provider which has to be loaded explicitly. By default, it will not be loaded and DES methods in tests will fail. Nest test blocks under successful initialization. Signed-off-by: Alexander Bokovoy <[email protected]>

OpenSSL 3.0 on systems with systemd-wide crypto policy (Fedora, RHEL, CentOS 9 Stream) might block certain key sizes which causes the tests to fail. Skip these tests because we are not going to get the results anyway. There is no way with CPPUNIT to produce a warning only, so we have to skip the whole test result.

Also, Fedora does not have engine API enabled anymore, so I cannot build locally anymore, need to pull a patch that disables engine's support but that one will break on other openssl versions. |
|
CI now updated, please merge |
|
Almost there, now only few tests are failing: THANK YOU! |
|
Setting as draft until tests passes. |
|
Yeah, sorry, had no time to look at that... |

I just created #783 which will enable legacy provider so it will still keep testing the legacy things. I also added a new job for ubuntu 24.04 but think it makes sense to also run it with Botan. In terms of this PR, I think the main issue is that it can actually hide problems in the implementation (e.g. ignore real failures in legacy algs implementation). After my change it's really just about dealing with non upstream RHEL changes which I'm not sure need to be address here. I think that anyone who wants to run tests there should just compile their own version of OpenSSL which is pretty easy. But if there was a need to really make it work nicely there, I think better solution would be to identify it during the configuration (m4 macro checking) and then just compile out parts that are not supported. |
|
Maybe if it's too tricky to identify that the algs are disabled without the policy, it would be ok to introduce some special config options for that. I might actually look into it as I have a similar issue in PHP, where I maintain openssl extension, and we have a similar request there. |
This is absolutely unacceptable idea for the Linux distributions. Of course, we have pre-existing build of OpenSSL and yes, we would like to have tests run to gain at least some hope for the package being functional. |
Well distributions can patch the tests as well. I think this is what is being done for PHP packages - some tests are modified only in the distribution version to work there. In our case we also use some EC group functionality that is patched out there. I'm not saying that's ideal but it is something that can be done instead. Anyway it probably makes more sense to have those changes upstream and I will be actually looking into the better solution for PHP so might try to apply it then here as well which would be probably ideal. I think the current solution of ignoring failures is not ideal and it might be better to look into a bit more robust way. |
This is a first step to make SoftHSM compiled and tests running with OpenSSL 3.0.0 under CentOS 9 Stream (similar to Fedora 34). We cannot use DES anymore there without loading a legacy provider but even if it is loaded, system-wide crypto policies on Fedora/CentOS Stream/RHEL would forbid its use. Same with RSA 1024 or lower key sizes.
The test changes simply make it so that the tests are only run if we are able to initialize encoders or generate keys to work on. Sadly, CPPUNIT cannot produce warnings-only output, they have to be either failures or success, so I have to skip tests that cannot be run.
