Guillem Jover f0501609 2024-02-14T03:39:16 build: Swap symbol and alias arguments order in macros creating aliases The current order is rather confusing, pass the real symbol first and the alias we want to create next.
Guillem Jover 48107fc8 2021-11-28T23:19:16 build: Clarify link-time warnings Mention the involved function instead of stating an implicit "this function". Mention libbsd when proposing using an alternative libmd to make the context clear.
Guillem Jover e7cf8c57 2021-11-28T22:44:08 Switch md5 compatibility logic back to direct linking When using the recent dlsym() based wrapper, we are not requiring any symbol from libmd, as we resolve those dynamically at run-time. We were ending up linking against libmd because in another part of the code we require (depending on the architecture) the SHA512 functions for the getentropy() local implementation. But that function might be provided by the system libc on some systems, which means we end up not linking against libmd at all. To solve this we go back to the previous simpler solution of linking directly, which had the main drawback of then making programs fail to link when not specifying -lmd (on platforms that need it). And then switch the .so link point from a symlink to a linker script, so that we can inject the -lmd library as-needed. This is similar to what glibc is doing. Fixes: commit 31f034e3862debda8615a449b1c11c4d6920dcc7
Guillem Jover e35d9141 2021-02-11T04:41:46 Add link-time warnings to MD5 wrapper functions Let's get the word out that these functions are deprecated and should be switched away from.
Guillem Jover 31f034e3 2021-02-09T05:57:37 Switch libmd wrapper to use dlsym() Switch from the previous versioned symbol implementation which required users to also link against the message digest provider explicitly, or they would fail to find the symbols, to an implementation that loads the symbols from the linked library providing the functions using dlsym(), thus preserving backwards compatibility.
Guillem Jover 847e682f 2021-02-07T00:09:30 Use libmd hashing function implementations instead of embedding our own This splits the implementation responsibilities, and reduces embedded code copies, which was one of the driving points with this project to start with, so it's nice to give a good example.
