--- Comment #5 from RickyDoug <doug.sprin...@idahoscientific.com> --- I totally agree with you that there are few, if any that even build-time support it and none that release binaries packed, at least that I have found. The real issue is someone copied a header file without packing that has now made it 'standard' in the Linux realm. Unfortunately every project copied the same file or something very similar, and now we have non-compliant implementations all over the place. The PKCS11 standard is very clear that packing is required. An example header does not constitute a standard. Just because whoever wrote the API didn't know anything about Unix and basically said so in the header does not make the requirement ambiguous. BTW, the packing control wouldn't be in the pkcs11.h file, it's usually in the header that includes it. The google test suite is the only project that thought about this and provided a way. Here's a simple, two line solution: https://github.com/google/pkcs11test/blob/dev/pkcs11-env.h And really that is all this bug report is about... the *ability* to build packed structures so the *possibility* exits somewhere in the future for the project to be compliant. For other users using source code, the project can be compliant now. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching someone on the CC list of the bug.
