Hi All, On page 133 of the User Guide 2.0 for the OpenSSL FIPS Object Module v2.0, the document (book?) talks about symbol renaming. The discussion occurs in "Appendix I, API Entry Points by Source File," and the text is below.
Why does symbol renaming occur? Jeff Symbol renaming: Some symbol names as defined in the source code are dynamically redefined at build time. This API documentation shows both the original (source code) and build time (object code) symbol names, for instance: FIPS_bn_bn2bin (renames BN_bn2bin) in file ./crypto/bn/bn_lib.[o|c] which indicates that the FIPS_bn_bn2bin() function as seen in the compiled code (./crypto/bn/bn_lib.o) is found in the source code as function BN_bn2bin() in source file ./crypto/bn/bn_lib.c. ______________________________________________________________________ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org User Support Mailing List openssl-users@openssl.org Automated List Manager majord...@openssl.org
