-TODO for 1.1 And Beyond
+TODO for 1.2 And Beyond
=======================
-lib/silccrypt ****PARTLY DONE****
-=============
+NOTE: Any item that doesn't have (***DONE) in it, isn't done yet. The
+(***TESTING NEEDED) means that the item has been done but not yet properly
+tested.
- o Implement the defined SilcDH API. The definition is in
- lib/silccrypt/silcdh.h.
+NOTE: A TODO entry does not mean that it is ever going to be done. Some
+of the entries may be just ideas, good, bad or ugly. If you want to work
+on some of the TODO entries simply let us know about it by dropping a note
+to silc-devel mailing list or appear on 'silc' channel on SILCNet.
- o SSH2 public keys support, allowing the use of SSH2 public keys in
- SILC.
- o OpenPGP certificate support, allowing the use of PGP public keys
- in SILC.
+General
+=======
- o SILC PKCS (silcpkcs.h) reorganizing when other PK supports added.
- Move the SILC Public Key routines away from the crypto library into
- the core library (silccore). silc_pkcs_public/private_key_* routines
- to silc_public/private_key_* routines. The silc_public_key_* routines
- should also automatically handle SILC Public Keys, and other keys
- and certificates as well. Add fe. silcpk.h into silccore. It should
- also include the Public Key Payload encoding and decoding routines.
+ o Create apps/tutorial containing various Toolkit API tutorials.
- o Add DSS support.
+ o The Toolkit split. The Toolkit is to be splitted in parts. How many
+ parts and what the parts are isn't decided yet. Each part is a separate
+ software package. Current thinking is of the following:
- o Cipher optimizations (asm, that this) at least for i386 would be nice.
+ SILC Toolkit SILC protocol, client and server library
+ SILC Runtime Toolkit runtime library
+ SILC Crypto Toolkit crypto, asn1, math, skr, pgp, etc.
- o ECDSA and ECDH.
+ The rationale for this is of course that other than SILC projects
+ might like to use the various libraries SILC Toolkit provides, but
+ naturally they don't want the bloat of SILC protocol related stuff.
+ The Runtime library in SILC Toolkit is a general purpose runtime library,
+ like Glib and APR are. The runtime library is to be developed further
+ to provide alternative to Glib and APR.
-lib/silccore/silcpacket.[ch] ****DONE****
-============================
+ The Crypto library in SILC Toolkit is a general purpose crypto library
+ providing pretty nice APIs compared to many other crypto libraries,
+ especially OpenSSL. The Crypto library is to be developed further
+ to include support for OpenPGP, X.509 and SSH2.
- o SilcPacketEngine.
- o New SILC Packet API.
+lib/silccore
+============
+ o SILC_PACKET_FLAG_ACK support. Implement ACK packet and packet payload
+ to silcpacket.c.
-lib/silccore/silcpacket.[ch]
-============================
+ o All payload encoding routines should take SilcStack as argument.
- o IV Included flag support, UDP transport support
+ o All payload test routines into lib/silccore/tests/.
-lib/silccore/silcid.[ch] ****DONE****
-========================
+lib/silcclient, The Client Library
+==================================
- o Add silc_id_str2id to accept the destination buffer as argument
- and thus not require any memory allocation. Same will happen
- with silc_id_payload_* functions.
+ o peer-to-peer private messages
+
+ o Private message key request notification to application. See XXX in
+ client_prvmsg.c.
+
+ o in JOIN notify handle resolving that timedout. Currently the user is
+ never joined the channel if this happens. What to do if message is
+ received from user that hasn't been resolved/joined?
+
+ o Message ACKing support.
+
+ o in /cmode and /cumode with +r, maybe the public key and private key
+ could be just some "string", which would then match to "string.pub" and
+ "string.prv".
+
+
+Runtime library, lib/silcutil/
+==============================
+
+ o Fix universal time decoding (doesn't accept all formats) in silctime.c.
+
+ o Add functions to manipulate environment variables.
+
+ SilcBool silc_setenv(const char *variable, const char *value);
+ const char *silc_getenv(const char *variable);
+ SilcBool silc_clearenv(const char *variable);
+
+ o Add functions to loading shared/dynamic object symbols (replaces the
+ SIM library (lib/silcsim) and introduces generic library). Add this
+ to lib/silcutil/silcdll.[ch].
+
+ SilcDll silc_dll_load(const char *object_path, SilcDllFlags flags);
+ void silc_dll_close(SilcDll dll);
+ void *silc_dll_getsym(SilcDll dll, const char *symbol);
+ const char *silc_dll_error(SilcDll dll);
+
+ o Add directory opening/traversing functions
+
+ o silc_getopt routines
+
+ o silc_hash_table_replace -> silc_hash_table_set. Retain support for
+ silc_hash_table_replace as macro.
+
+ o The SILC Event signals. Asynchronous events that can be created,
+ connected to and signalled. Either own event routines or glued into
+ SilcSchedule:
+
+ SilcTask silc_schedule_task_add_event(SilcSchedule schedule,
+ const char *event, ...);
+ SilcBool silc_schedule_event_connect(SilcSchedule schedule,
+ const char *event,
+ SilcTaskCallback event_callback,
+ void *context);
+ SilcBool silc_schedule_event_signal(SilcSchedule schedule,
+ const char *event, ...);
+
+ Example:
+ silc_schedule_task_add_event(schedule, "connected",
+ SILC_PARAM_UI32_INT,
+ SILC_PARAM_BUFFER,
+ SILC_PARAM_END);
+ silc_schedule_event_connect(schedule, "connected", connected_cb, ctx);
+ silc_schedule_event_signal(schedule, "connected", integer, buf,
+ SILC_PARAM_END);
+ SILC_TASK_CALLBACK(connected_cb)
+ {
+ FooCtx ctx = context;
+ va_list args;
+ SilcUInt32 integer;
+ SilcBuffer buf;
+
+ va_start(args, context);
+ integer = va_arg(args, SilcUInt32);
+ buf = va_arg(args, SilcBuffer);
+ va_end(args);
+ ...
+ }
+
+ Problems: Events would be SilcSchedule specific, and would not work on
+ multi-thread/multi-scheduler system. The events should be copyable
+ between schedulers. Another problem is the signal delivery. Do we
+ deliver them synchronously possibly from any thread to any other thread
+ or do we deliver them through the target schedulers. If we use the
+ schedulers then signalling would be asynchronous (data must be
+ duplicated and later freed) which is not very nice.
+
+ o If the event signals are added, the SILC_PARAM_* stuff needs to be
+ moved from silcbuffmt.h to silctypes.h or something similar.
+
+ o In case the SILC Events are done we shall create a new concept of
+ parent and child SilcSchedule's. When new SilcSchedule is created a
+ parent can be associated to it. This association could be done either
+ directly by the parent or by any other children. This way the signals
+ would in effect be global and would reach all children schedulers.
+
+ This relationship would be associative only. The schedulers are still
+ independent and run independently from each other. All schedulers
+ would be linked and could be accessed from any of the schedulers.
+ It should be possible to retrieve the parent and enumate all children
+ from any of the schedulers.
+
+ SilcSchedule silc_schedule_init(int max_tasks, void *app_context,
+ SilcSchedule parent);
+ SilcSchedule silc_schedule_get_parent(SilcSchedule schedule);
+
+ o Additional scheduler changes: optimize silc_schedule_wakeup. Wakeup
+ only if the scheduler is actually waiting something. If it is
+ delivering tasks wakeup is not needed.
+
+ o Structured log messages to Log API. Allows machine readable log
+ messages. Would allow sending of any kind of data in a log message.
+
+ o Base64 to an own API
+
+ o Timer API
- o silc_id_str2id, silc_id2str to non-allocating routines.
+ o Add builtin SOCKS and HTTP Proxy support, well the SOCKS at least.
+ SILC currently supports SOCKS4 and SOCKS5 but it needs to be compiled
+ in separately.
+ o silc_stringprep to non-allocating version.
-lib/silccore
-============
+ o SilcStack aware SilcHashTable.
- o All payload encoding routines should take SilcStack as argument.
+ o SilcStack aware SilcDList.
+ o Thread pool API. Add this to lib/silcutil/silcthread.[ch].
-lib/silcutil ****PARTLY DONE****
-============
+ typedef void (*SilcThreadPoolFunc)(SilcSchedule schedule,
+ void *context);
- o Compression routines are missing. The protocol supports packet
- compression thus it must be implemented. SILC Zip API must be
- defined.
+ /* Allocate thread pool with at least `min_threads' and at most
+ `max_threads' many threads. If `stack' is non-NULL all memory
+ is allocated from the `stack'. If `start_min_threads' is TRUE
+ this will start `min_threads' many threads immediately. */
+ SilcThreadPool silc_thread_pool_alloc(SilcStack stack,
+ SilcUInt32 min_threads,
+ SilcUInt32 max_threads,
+ SilcBool start_min_threads);
- o Add builtin SOCKS and HTTP Proxy support, well the SOCKS at least.
- SILC currently supports SOCKS4 and SOCKS5 but it needs to be compiled
- in separately.
+ /* Free thread pool. If `wait_unfinished' is TRUE this will block
+ and waits that all remaining active threads finish before freeing
+ the pool. */
+ void silc_thread_pool_free(SilcThreadPool tp, SilcBool wait_unfinished);
- o bool -> SilcBool
+ /* Run `run' function with `run_context' in one of the threads in the
+ thread pool. Returns FALSE if the thread pool is being freed. If
+ there are no free threads left in the pool this will queue the
+ the `run' and will call it once a thread becomes free.
- o SilcBit, bit field:
+ If `completion' is non-NULL it will be called to indicate completion
+ of the `run' function. If `schedule' is non-NULL the `completion'
+ will be called through the scheduler in the main thread. If it is
+ NULL the `completion' is called directly from the thread after the
+ `run' has returned. */
+ SilcBool silc_thread_pool_run(SilcThreadPool tp,
+ SilcSchedule schedule,
+ SilcThreadPoolFunc run,
+ void *run_context,
+ SilcThreadPoolFunc completion,
+ void *completion_context);
- #define SilcBit(b) unsigned int b : 1
+ /* Modify the amount of maximum threads of the pool. */
+ void silc_thread_pool_set_max_threads(SilcThreadPool tp,
+ SilcUInt32 max_threads);
+ /* Returns the amount of maximum size the pool can grow. */
+ SilcUInt32 silc_thread_pool_num_max_threads(SilcThreadPool tp);
-lib/silcutil/silcbuffer.h ****DONE****
-=========================
+ /* Returns the amount of free threads in the pool currently. */
+ SilcUInt32 silc_thread_pool_num_free_threads(SilcThreadPool tp);
+
+ /* Stops all free and started threads. The minumum amount of threads
+ specified to silc_thread_pool_alloc always remains. */
+ void silc_thread_pool_purge(SilcThreadPool tp);
+
+ o Fast mutex implementation. Fast rwlock implementation. Mutex and
+ rwlock implementation using atomic operations.
+
+ o Compression routines are missing. The protocol supports packet
+ compression thus it must be implemented. SILC Zip API must be
+ defined.
+
+ (o Generic SilcStatus or SilcResult that includes all possible status and
+ error conditions, including those of SILC protocol. Though, the SILC
+ protocol related status (currently in silcstatus.h) cannot be in
+ runtime library) maybe
- o Remove the `truelen' field from SilcBuffer as it is entirely
- redundant since we can get the true length of the buffer by
- doing buffer->end - buffer->header. Add silc_buffer_truelen
- macro instead. Consider also removing `len' field too since
- it effectively is buffer->tail - buffer->data, and adding
- silc_buffer_len macro can do the same. These would save
- totally 8 bytes of memory per buffer.
+ (o SILC specific socket creation/closing routines to silcnet.h, wrappers
+ to all send(), recv(), sendto() etc. Bad thing is that we'd have to
+ define all socket options, sockaddrs, etc.) maybe
+ (o mmap) maybe
-lib/silcutil/silcbuffmt.[ch] ****PARTY DONE****
-============================
- o SILC_STR_APPEND, _APPEND_TAIL.
+lib/silcutil/symbian/
+=====================
- o SILC_STR_OFFSET
+ o Something needs to be thought to the logging globals as well,
+ like silc_debug etc. They won't work on EPOC. Perhaps logging
+ and debugging is to be disabled on EPOC. The logging currently works
+ by it cannot be controlled, same with debugging.
-lib/silcutil/silcstack.[ch] ****DONE****
+SFTP Library, lib/silcsftp/
===========================
- o Data stack implementation
+ o Read prefetch (read-ahead, reading ahead of time). Maybe if this can
+ be done easily.
-lib/silcutil/silcstream.[ch] ****DONE****
-============================
+SKR Library, lib/silcskr/
+=========================
- o Add abstract SilcStream.
+ o Add fingerprint as search constraint.
+
+ o Add OpenPGP support. Adding, removing, fetching PGP keys. (Keyring
+ support?)
+
+ o Add support for importing public keys from a directory and/or from a
+ file. Add support for exporting the repository (different formats for
+ different key types?).
+
+ o Change the entire silc_skr_find API. Remove SilcSKRFind and just simply
+ add the find constraints as variable argument list to silc_skr_find, eg:
+
+ silc_skr_find(skr, schedule, callback, context,
+ SILC_SKR_FIND_PUBLIC_KEY, public_key,
+ SILC_SKR_FIND_COUNTRY, "FI",
+ SILC_SKR_FIND_USAGE, SILC_SKR_USAGE_AUTH,
+ SILC_SKR_FIND_END);
+
+ NULL argument would be ignored and skipped.
+
+ o Add OR logical rule in addition of the current default AND, eg:
+
+ // Found key(s) MUST have this public key AND this country.
+ silc_skr_find(skr, schedule, callback, context,
+ SILC_SKR_FIND_RULE_AND,
+ SILC_SKR_FIND_PUBLIC_KEY, public_key,
+ SILC_SKR_FIND_COUNTRY, "FI",
+ SILC_SKR_FIND_END);
+
+ // Found key(s) MUST have this public key OR this key context
+ silc_skr_find(skr, schedule, callback, context,
+ SILC_SKR_FIND_RULE_OR,
+ SILC_SKR_FIND_PUBLIC_KEY, public_key,
+ SILC_SKR_FIND_CONTEXT, key_context,
+ SILC_SKR_FIND_END);
+
+
+Crypto Library, lib/silccrypt/
+==============================
+
+ o Add fingerprint to SilcSILCPublicKey and retrieval to silcpk.h, and
+ possibly to silcpkcs.h.
+
+ /* Return fingerprint of the `public_key'. Returns also the algorithm
+ that has been used to make the fingerprint. */
+ const unsigned char *
+ silc_pkcs_get_fingerprint(SilcPublicKey public_key,
+ const char **hash_algorithm,
+ SilcUInt32 *fingerprint_len);
+
+ o Change SILC PKCS API to asynchronous, so that accelerators can be used.
+ All PKCS routines should now take callbacks as argument and they should
+ be delivered to SilcPKCSObject and SilcPKCSAlgorithm too.
+
+ /* Signature computation callback */
+ typedef void (*SilcPKCSSignCb)(SilcBool success,
+ const unsigned char *signature,
+ SilcUInt32 signature_len,
+ void *context);
+
+ /* Signature verification callback */
+ typedef void (*SilcPKCSVerifyCb)(SilcBool success, void *context);
+
+ /* Encryption callback */
+ typedef void (*SilcPKCSEncryptCb)(SilcBool success,
+ const unsigned char *encrypted,
+ SilcUInt32 encrypted_len,
+ void *context);
+
+ /* Decryption callback */
+ typedef void (*SilcPKCSDecryptCb)(SilcBool success,
+ const unsigned char *decrypted,
+ SilcUInt32 decrypted_len,
+ void *context);
+
+ Either add new _async functions or add the callbacks to existing API
+ and if the callback is NULL then the API is not async and if provided
+ it may be async. For example;
+
+ SilcBool silc_pkcs_sign(SilcPrivateKey private_key,
+ unsigned char *src, SilcUInt32 src_len,
+ unsigned char *dst, SilcUInt32 dst_size,
+ SilcUInt32 *dst_len,
+ SilcBool compute_hash, SilcHash hash,
+ SilcPKCSSignCb async_sign,
+ void *async_sign_context);
+
+ (if this is done then there's no reason why the buffers in the
+ callbacks cannot be the ones user gives here) or allow only async:
+
+ SilcBool silc_pkcs_sign(SilcPrivateKey private_key,
+ unsigned char *src, SilcUInt32 src_len,
+ SilcBool compute_hash, SilcHash hash,
+ SilcPKCSSignCb async_sign,
+ void *async_sign_context);
+
+ or add new:
+
+ SilcBool silc_pkcs_sign_async(SilcPrivateKey private_key,
+ unsigned char *src, SilcUInt32 src_len,
+ SilcBool compute_hash, SilcHash hash,
+ SilcPKCSSignCb async_sign,
+ void *async_sign_context);
+
+ o Change PKCS Algorithm API to take SilcPKCSAlgorithm as argument to
+ encrypt, decrypt, sign and verify functions. We may need to for exmaple
+ check the alg->hash, supported hash functions. Maybe deliver it also
+ to all other functions in SilcPKCSAlgorithm to be consistent.
+
+ o Add DSS support. Take implementation from Tom or make it yourself.
+ o Implement the defined SilcDH API. The definition is in
+ lib/silccrypt/silcdh.h. Make sure it is asynchronous so that it can
+ be accelerated. Also take into account that it could use elliptic
+ curves.
-lib/silcutil/silcsocketstream.[ch] ****PARTY DONE****
-==================================
+ o ECDSA and ECDH
- o Add SilcSocketStream.
+ o All cipher, hash, hmac etc. allocation routines should take their name
+ in as const char * not const unsigned char *.
- o Test QoS
+SILC Accelerator Library
+========================
-lib/silcutil/epoc/*
-===================
+ o SILC Accelerator API. Provides generic way to use different kind of
+ accelerators. Basically implements SILC PKCS API so that SilcPublicKey
+ and SilcPrivateKey can be used but they call the accelerators.
- o lib/silcutil/epoc routines missing or not completed.
+ Something in the lines of (preliminary):
- o The PKCS#1 also calls global RNG (even though it is not used
- currently in SILC, the interface allows its use).
+ /* Register accelerator to system. Initializes the accelerator. */
+ Varargs are optional accelerator specific init parameteres. */
+ SilcBool silc_acc_register(SilcAccelerator acc, ...);
- o Something needs to be thought to the logging globals as well,
- like silc_debug etc. They won't work on EPOC. Perhaps logging
- and debugging is to be disabled on EPOC.
+ silc_acc_register(softacc, "min_threads", 2, "max_threads", 16, NULL);
+ /* Unregister accelerator. Uninitializes the accelerator. */
+ SilcBool silc_acc_unregister(const SilcAccelerator acc);
-lib/silcutil/silcschedule*.[ch] ****DONE****
-===============================
+ /* Return list of the registered accelerators */
+ SilcDList silc_acc_get_supported(void);
- o Scheduler can be optimized for FD tasks by changing the fd_queue
- to SilcHashTable instead of using linked list. We need to do
- one-to-one mapping of FD to task and hash table is more efficient
- for this usage.
+ /* Find existing accelerator. `name' is accelerator's name. */
+ SilcAccelerator silc_acc_find(const char *name);
- Also redefine the silc_select to perhaps return a separate
- structure of the events that actually occurred, instead of
- returning the events in the fd_list which is then traversed
- in the generic code to find the changed events. This can be
- made faster by having own struct which includes only the
- changed events, thus the tarversing is faster since the whole
- fd_list is not traversed anymore (it is still traversed in the
- silc_select but at least it removes one extra tarversing later
- for the same list).
+ /* Return accelerator's name */
+ const char *silc_acc_get_name(SilcAccelerator acc);
- Other task queues should be changed to use SilcList.
+ /* Accelerate `public_key'. Return accelerated public key. */
+ SilcPublicKey silc_acc_public_key(SilcAccelerator acc,
+ SilcPublicKey public_key);
- o Add SILC scheduler's internal routines into a table of implementation
- function pointers, that the generic code then takes as extern from
- implementation. These are the silc_schedule_internal_* routines.
+ /* Accelerate `private_key'. Returns accelerated private key. */
+ SilcPrivateKey silc_acc_private_key(SilcAccelerator acc,
+ SilcPrivateKey private_key);
- o Change SILC_TASK_CALLBACK to non-static, and remove the macro
- SILC_TASK_CALLBACK_GLOBAL.
+ /* Return the underlaying public key */
+ SilcPublicKey silc_acc_get_public_key(SilcAccelerator acc,
+ SilcPublicKey public_key);
+ /* Return the underlaying private key */
+ SilcPrivateKey silc_acc_get_private_key(SilcAccelerator acc,
+ SilcPrivateKey private_key);
-lib/silcutil/silcasync.[ch] ****DONE****
-===========================
+ typedef struct SilcAcceleratorObject {
+ const char *name; /* Accelerator's name */
+ SilcBool (*init)(va_list va); /* Initialize accelerator */
+ SilcBool (*uninit)(void); /* Uninitialize accelerator */
+ const SilcPKCSAlgorithm *pkcs; /* Accelerated PKCS algorithms */
+ const SilcDHObject *dh; /* Accelerated Diffie-Hellmans */
+ const SilcCipherObject *cipher; /* Accelerated ciphers */
+ const SilcHashObject *hash; /* Accelerated hashes */
+ const SilcHmacObject *hmac; /* Accelerated HMACs */
+ const SilcRngObject *rng; /* Accelerated RNG's */
+ } *SilcAccelerator, SilcAcceleratorStruct;
- o Add SilcAsyncOperation to utility library. Any function that takes
- callback as an argument must/should return SilcAsyncOperation.
+ Allows accelerator to have multiple accelerators (cipher, hash etc)
+ and multiple different algorithms and implementations (SHA-1, SHA-256 etc).
+ SilcPublicKey->SilcSILCPublicKey->RsaPublicKey accelerated as:
+ SilcPublicKey->SilcAcceleratorPublicKey->SilcSoftAccPublicKey->
+ SilcPublicKey->SilcSILCPublicKey->RsaPublicKey
-lib/silcutil/silctime.[ch] ****DONE****
-===========================
+ silc_acc_public_key creates SilcPublicKey and SilcAcceleratorPublicKey
+ and acc->pkcs->import_public_key creates SilcSoftAccPublicKey.
+
+ o Implement software accelerator. It is a thread pool system where the
+ public key and private key operations are executed in threads.
- o SilcTime.
+ const struct SilcAcceleratorObject softacc =
+ {
+ "softacc", softacc_init, softacc_uninit,
+ softacc_pkcs, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL
+ }
- o system time, universal, generalized.
+ /* Called from silc_acc_private_key */
+ int silc_softacc_import_private_key(void *key, SilcUInt32 key_len,
+ void **ret_private_key)
+ {
+ SilcSoftAccPrivateKey prv = silc_calloc(1, sizeof(*prv));
+ prv->pkcs = acc->pkcs;
+ prv->private_key = key;
+ *ret_private_key = prv;
+ }
+
+ (o Symmetric key cryptosystem acceleration? They are always sycnhronouos
+ even with hardware acceleration so the crypto API shouldn't require
+ changes.) maybe
lib/silcmath
increased memory consumption with TFM, and the rare need for public
key operations in server.
+ We want TFM's speed but not TFM's memory requirements. Talk to Tom
+ about making the TFM mp dynamic just as it is in LTM.
+
o The SILC MP API function must start returning indication of success
and failure of the operation.
o All utility functions should be made non-allocating ones.
-lib/silcasn1 ****PARTLY DONE****
-============
+SILC XML Library, lib/silcxml/
+==============================
- o ASN.1 library
+ o SILC XML API (wrapper to expat). Look at the expat API and simplify
+ it. The SILC XML API should have at most 8-10 API functions. It should
+ be possible to create full XML parser with only one function. And, it
+ should be possible to have a function that is able to parse an entire
+ XML document. It should also have a parser function to be able to
+ parse a stream of XML data (SilcStream). It MUST NOT have operations
+ that require multiple function calls to be able to execute that one
+ operation (like creating parser).
- o Header documentation missing.
- o Some string encodings missing (copy/paste matter).
+lib/silcske/silcske.[ch]
+========================
+ o Ratelimit to UDP/IP transport for incoming packets.
-lib/silcpkix
+
+lib/silcasn1
============
- o PKIX implementation
+ o Negative integer encoding is missing, add it.
+ o SILC_ASN1_CHOICE should perhaps return an index what choice in the
+ choice list was found. Currently it is left for caller to figure out
+ which choice was found.
-lib/silcutil/silcfsm.[ch] ****DONE****
-=========================
+ o SILC_ASN1_NULL in decoding should return SilcBool whether or not
+ the NULL was present. It's important when it's SILC_ASN1_OPTIONAL
+ and we need to know whether it was present or not.
- o SILC Finite State Machine API. Replaces SILC Protocol API,
+lib/silcpgp
+===========
-lib/silcutil/silcnet*, lib/silcutil/*/silc*net* ****PARTLY DONE****
-===============================================
+ o OpenPGP certificate support, allowing the use of PGP public keys
+ in SILC.
- o Add UDP interface
- o New network interfaces
+lib/silcssh
+===========
- o Other functions should remain as they are since these new functions have
- to use them. This way we also provide them for applications that want
- to handle the sockets by themself.
+ o SSH2 public key/private key support, allowing the use of SSH2 keys
+ in SILC. RFC 4716.
+
+
+lib/silcpkix
+============
+
+ o PKIX implementation
lib/silcserver
==============
+ o (Re)write commands/command replys.
+
+ o (Re)write notify handling.
+
o The SERVER_SIGNOFF notify handing is not optimal, because it'll
cause sending of multiple SIGNOFF notify's instead of the one
SERVER_SIGNOFF notify that the server received. This should be
done per channel. It shouldn't receive the whole list just
because one client happened to be on same channel.
- o MAYBE: The SilcChannelClientEntry can be:
- SilcUInt32 address;
- SilcUInt32 mode;
-
- where address is SilcClientEntry address XOR SilcChannelEntry.
- You can get SilcClientEntry by doing client = chl->address XOR channel,
- and SilcChannelEntry by doing channel = chl->address XOR client.
- As long as the other pointer is always available when accessing the
- structure this can be done.
-
o Add reference counters to all Silc*Entry structures
o SERVICEs support (plugin, SIM)
seconds. Now it is possible to accept n incoming JOIN commands
and process them without any timeouts. THis must be employed because
each JOIN command will create and distribute the new channel key
- to everybody on the channel (Fix this to 0.9.x).
+ to everybody on the channel.
o Related to above. If multiple JOINs are received in sequence perhaps
new key should be created only once, if the JOINs are handeled at the same
projects / crypto.git / blobdiff
