Changes needed to build at all: - Check for SSL_new in configure, now that SSL_library_init is a macro. - Do not access struct members directly. This includes some new code in pgcrypto, to use the resource owner mechanism to ensure that we don't leak OpenSSL handles, now that we can't embed them in other structs anymore. - RAND_SSLeay() -> RAND_OpenSSL() Changes that were needed to silence deprecation warnings, but were not strictly necessary: - RAND_pseudo_bytes() -> RAND_bytes(). - SSL_library_init() and OpenSSL_config() -> OPENSSL_init_ssl() - ASN1_STRING_data() -> ASN1_STRING_get0_data() - DH_generate_parameters() -> DH_generate_parameters() - Locking callbacks are not needed with OpenSSL 1.1.0 anymore. (Good riddance!) Also change references to SSLEAY_VERSION_NUMBER with OPENSSL_VERSION_NUMBER, for the sake of consistency. OPENSSL_VERSION_NUMBER has existed since time immemorial. Fix SSL test suite to work with OpenSSL 1.1.0. CA certificates must have the "CA:true" basic constraint extension now, or OpenSSL will refuse them. Regenerate the test certificates with that. The "openssl" binary, used to generate the certificates, is also now more picky, and throws an error if an X509 extension is specified in "req_extensions", but that section is empty. Backpatch to 9.5 and 9.6, per popular demand. The file structure was somewhat different in earlier branches, so I didn't bother to go further than that. In back-branches, we still support OpenSSL 0.9.7 and above. OpenSSL 0.9.6 should still work too, but I didn't test it. In master, we only support 0.9.8 and above. Patch by Andreas Karlsson, with additional changes by me. Discussion: <20160627151604.GD1051@msg.df7cb.de>
The PostgreSQL contrib tree
---------------------------
This subtree contains porting tools, analysis utilities, and plug-in
features that are not part of the core PostgreSQL system, mainly
because they address a limited audience or are too experimental to be
part of the main source tree. This does not preclude their
usefulness.
User documentation for each module appears in the main SGML
documentation.
When building from the source distribution, these modules are not
built automatically, unless you build the "world" target. You can
also build and install them all by running "make all" and "make
install" in this directory; or to build and install just one selected
module, do the same in that module's subdirectory.
Some directories supply new user-defined functions, operators, or
types. To make use of one of these modules, after you have installed
the code you need to register the new SQL objects in the database
system by executing a CREATE EXTENSION command. In a fresh database,
you can simply do
CREATE EXTENSION module_name;
See the PostgreSQL documentation for more information about this
procedure.
