Recognize the PEM header "BEGIN PRIVATE KEY" as base64-decode the data
to be able to use PEM encoded, unencrypted PKCS#8 private keys with the
internal TLS implementation. Previously, only DER encoding of the
PKCS#8 private key was supported.
These could, at least in theory, be used to generate unexpected common
name or subject alternative name matches should a CA sign strings with
NUL (C string termination) in them. For now, just reject the certificate
if an embedded NUL is detected. In theory, all the comparison routines
could be made to compare these strings as binary blobs (with additional
X.509 rules to handle some exceptions) and display NUL characters
somehow. Anyway, just rejecting the certificate will get rid of
potential problems with the C string getting terminated and it should
not really be used in certificates, so this should not break valid use
cases.
This removes need for local configuration to ignore *.o and *~
and allows the src/*/.gitignore files to be removed (subdirectories
will inherit the rules from the root .gitignore).
When using the internal TLS implementation, EAP-FAST unauthenticated
provisioning ends up proposing multiple cipher suites. It looks like
Cisco AP (at least 350 and 1200 series) local authentication server does
not know how to search cipher suites from the list and seem to require
that the last entry in the list is the one that it wants to use.
However, TLS specification requires the list to be in the client
preference order. As a workaround, ass anon-DH AES-128-SHA1 again at the
end of the list to allow the Cisco code to find it.
This fixed EAP-FAST provisioning with the following IOS version:
Cisco IOS Software, C350 Software (C350-K9W7-M), Version 12.3(8)JEA3,
RELEASE SOFTWARE (fc2)

CONFIG_INTERNAL_LIBTOMMATH_FAST=y in .config can now be used to enable all
optimized routines at a cost of about 4 kB. This is small enough increase
in size to justify simplified configuration.
At the cost of about 1 kB of additional binary size, the internal
LibTomMath can be configured to include faster div routine to speed up DH
and RSA. This can be enabled with CONFIG_INTERNAL_LIBTOMMATH_FAST_DIV=y in
.config.
At the cost of about 0.5 kB of additional binary size, the internal
LibTomMath can be configured to include faster sqr routine to speed up DH
and RSA. This can be enabled with CONFIG_INTERNAL_LIBTOMMATH_FAST_SQR=y in
.config.
Add a cost of about 2.5 kB of additional cost, the internal LibTomMath can
be configured to include fast exptmod routine to speed up DH and RSA.
This can be enabled with CONFIG_INTERNAL_LIBTOMMATH_FAST_EXPTMOD=y in
.config.
