2017-11-10[crypto] Add support for loading an alternative EngineLars Thorsen
Add support to plug in alternative implementations for some or all of the cryptographic operations supported by the OpenSSL Engine API. When configured appropriately, OpenSSL calls the engine's implementation of these operations instead of its own.

2017-01-08Add RSA key generationWim Lewis
Support RSA key generation using generate_key(rsa, {bits, e}). This depends on the currently-experimental "dirty scheduler" support because key generation is a potentially lengthy process.

2016-07-30crypto:cmac calculating the Cipher-based Message Authentication CodePetr Gotthard
The ERL-82 issue requests a way to calculate a CMAC in Erlang. The AES128 CMAC is standartized in RFC 4493 and used e.g. for message authentication in the LoRaWAN networks. The CMAC is implemented by OpenSSL since v1.0.1, but as @IngelaAndin stated in response to the ERL-82, the current crypto implementation does not include functions that call those OpenSSL cryptolib functions. This commit introduces a new function `crypto:cmac` that calls the corresponding OpenSSL functions and calculates the CMAC. Only the cmac_nif is implemented. The incremental functions (init, update, final) are not provided because the current OpenSSL does not allow custom memory allocators like `enif_alloc_resource`. The Erlang user guide states that at least OpenSSL 0.9.8 is required, so I added few #ifdefs so the code is compatible with all versions. However, the OpenSSL pages say that the pre-1.0.1 versions (0.9.8 and 1.0.0) are no longer maintained. Even the 1.0.1 will be retired by Dec 2016. Hence I believe that adding a 1.0.1-only function like CMAC should be OK.
2016-04-25crypto: Deprecate rand_bytes/1Ingela Anderton Andin
OpenSSL has deprecated the function RAND_pseudo_bytes used by crypto:rand_bytes/1, so this function is now deprecated in OTP too. rand_bytes/3 also used this function, but was not documented so we can remove it right away. This commit also removes the fallback in generate_key to use rand_bytes/1 if strong_rand_bytes/1 throws low entropy. This is a potential incompatibility but we think it is desirable as crypto should provide cryptographically secure functions.
