With this commit libcrypto does not use ARM NEON extension as long as
SPECS includes "neon". arm_v7a does declare "neon" per default while
arm_v8a does.
Issue #3773
Note, OpenSSL now comes as one combined depot archive *openssl* that
replaces the former *libssl* and *libcrypto* archives. The libraries are
still separate binaries for compatibility with legacy software.
Issue #3773
On a 64-bit system, enabling the OpenSSL NIST 64-bit optimization should
result in considerable speed improvements when using curves: NIST-P224,
NIST-P256, and NIST-P521. Additionally it avoids that Tor complains
about having an OpenSSL that lacks this feature.
Ref #2193
Instead of holding SPEC-variable dependent files and directories inline
within the repository structure, move them into 'spec' subdirectories
at the corresponding levels, e.g.:
repos/base/include/spec
repos/base/mk/spec
repos/base/lib/mk/spec
repos/base/src/core/spec
...
Moreover, this commit removes the 'platform' directories. That term was
used in an overloaded sense. All SPEC-relative 'platform' directories are
now named 'spec'. Other files, like for instance those related to the
kernel/architecture specific startup library, where moved from 'platform'
directories to explicit, more meaningful places like e.g.: 'src/lib/startup'.
Fix#1673
This patch changes the top-level directory layout as a preparatory
step for improving the tools for managing 3rd-party source codes.
The rationale is described in the issue referenced below.
