2014-01-16Replace ath based mutexes by gpgrt based locks.Werner Koch1-18/+6
* configure.ac (NEED_GPG_ERROR_VERSION): Require 1.13. (gl_LOCK): Remove. * src/ath.c, src/ath.h: Remove. Remove from all files. Replace all mutexes by gpgrt based statically initialized locks. * src/global.c (global_init): Remove ath_init. (_gcry_vcontrol): Make ath install a dummy function. (print_config): Remove threads info line. * doc/gcrypt.texi: Simplify the multi-thread related documentation. -- The current code does only work on ELF systems with weak symbol support. In particular no locks were used under Windows. With the new gpgrt_lock functions from the soon to be released libgpg-error 1.13 we have a better portable scheme which also allows for static initialized mutexes.

2013-12-05Remove macro hacks for internal vs. external functions. Part 1.Werner Koch1-2/+2
* src/visibility.h: Remove almost all define/undef hacks for symbol visibility. Add macros to detect the use of the public functions. Change all affected functions by prefixing them explicitly with an underscore and change all internal callers to call the underscore prefixed versions. Provide convenience macros from sexp and mpi functions. * src/visibility.c: Change all functions to use only gpg_err_code_t and translate to gpg_error_t only in visibility.c. -- The use of the macro magic made if hard to follow the function calls in the source. It was not easy to see if an internal or external function (as defined by visibility.c) was called. The change is quite large but hopefully makes Libgcrypt easier to maintain. Some function have not yet been fixed; this will be done soon. Because Libgcrypt does no make use of any other libgpg-error using libraries it is useless to always translate between gpg_error_t and gpg_err_code_t (i.e with and w/o error source identifier). This translation has no mostly be moved to the function wrappers in visibility.c. An additional advantage of using gpg_err_code_t is that comparison can be done without using gpg_err_code(). I am sorry for that large patch, but a series of patches would actually be more work to audit. Signed-off-by: Werner Koch <wk@gnupg.org>
2012-12-03Move nonce creation from csprng backend to random main module.Werner Koch1-13/+0
* random/random-csprng.c (_gcry_rngcsprng_create_nonce): Remove. (nonce_buffer_lock): Remove. (initialize_basics): Remove init of nonce_buffer_lock. * random/random.c: Add a few header files. (nonce_buffer_lock): New. (_gcry_random_initialize): Init nonce_buffer_lock. (gcry_create_nonce): Add code from _gcry_rngcsprng_create_nonce. * random/random-daemon.c (_gcry_daemon_create_nonce): Remove. -- The nonce generation code is useful for all RNG types and thus it should be in random.c. The only exception is the fips-mode, which requires the use of the fips nonce generator.
2011-12-01Completed switch to a simpler thread model.Werner Koch1-0/+1
This is only a first step. We will need to either implement pthread_atfork or - better - make use use POSIX RT semaphores.
2011-02-04Nuked almost all trailing whitespace.Werner Koch1-8/+8
Check and install the standard git pre-commit hook.
2008-08-29Changed the way the FIPS RNG is seeded.Werner Koch1-2/+2
FIPS cleanups. Documentation upodates.
2008-07-05Moved random stuff into its own directory.Werner Koch1-0/+360
