Replace mkfiles.pl with a CMake build system. This brings various concrete advantages over the previous system: - consistent support for out-of-tree builds on all platforms - more thorough support for Visual Studio IDE project files - support for Ninja-based builds, which is particularly useful on Windows where the alternative nmake has no parallel option - a really simple set of build instructions that work the same way on all the major platforms (look how much shorter README is!) - better decoupling of the project configuration from the toolchain configuration, so that my Windows cross-building doesn't need (much) special treatment in CMakeLists.txt - configure-time tests on Windows as well as Linux, so that a lot of ad-hoc #ifdefs second-guessing a particular feature's presence from the compiler version can now be replaced by tests of the feature itself Also some longer-term software-engineering advantages: - other people have actually heard of CMake, so they'll be able to produce patches to the new build setup more easily - unlike the old mkfiles.pl, CMake is not my personal problem to maintain - most importantly, mkfiles.pl was just a horrible pile of unmaintainable cruft, which even I found it painful to make changes to or to use, and desperately needed throwing in the bin. I've already thrown away all the variants of it I had in other projects of mine, and was only delaying this one so we could make the 0.75 release branch first. This change comes with a noticeable build-level restructuring. The previous Recipe worked by compiling every object file exactly once, and then making each executable by linking a precisely specified subset of the same object files. But in CMake, that's not the natural way to work - if you write the obvious command that puts the same source file into two executable targets, CMake generates a makefile that compiles it once per target. That can be an advantage, because it gives you the freedom to compile it differently in each case (e.g. with a #define telling it which program it's part of). But in a project that has many executable targets and had carefully contrived to _never_ need to build any module more than once, all it does is bloat the build time pointlessly! To avoid slowing down the build by a large factor, I've put most of the modules of the code base into a collection of static libraries organised vaguely thematically (SSH, other backends, crypto, network, ...). That means all those modules can still be compiled just once each, because once each library is built it's reused unchanged for all the executable targets. One upside of this library-based structure is that now I don't have to manually specify exactly which objects go into which programs any more - it's enough to specify which libraries are needed, and the linker will figure out the fine detail automatically. So there's less maintenance to do in CMakeLists.txt when the source code changes. But that reorganisation also adds fragility, because of the trad Unix linker semantics of walking along the library list once each, so that cyclic references between your libraries will provoke link errors. The current setup builds successfully, but I suspect it only just manages it. (In particular, I've found that MinGW is the most finicky on this score of the Windows compilers I've tried building with. So I've included a MinGW test build in the new-look Buildscr, because otherwise I think there'd be a significant risk of introducing MinGW-only build failures due to library search order, which wasn't a risk in the previous library-free build organisation.) In the longer term I hope to be able to reduce the risk of that, via gradual reorganisation (in particular, breaking up too-monolithic modules, to reduce the risk of knock-on references when you included a module for function A and it also contains function B with an unsatisfied dependency you didn't really need). Ideally I want to reach a state in which the libraries all have sensibly described purposes, a clearly documented (partial) order in which they're permitted to depend on each other, and a specification of what stubs you have to put where if you're leaving one of them out (e.g. nocrypto) and what callbacks you have to define in your non-library objects to satisfy dependencies from things low in the stack (e.g. out_of_memory()). One thing that's gone completely missing in this migration, unfortunately, is the unfinished MacOS port linked against Quartz GTK. That's because it turned out that I can't currently build it myself, on my own Mac: my previous installation of GTK had bit-rotted as a side effect of an Xcode upgrade, and I haven't yet been able to persuade jhbuild to make me a new one. So I can't even build the MacOS port with the _old_ makefiles, and hence, I have no way of checking that the new ones also work. I hope to bring that port back to life at some point, but I don't want it to block the rest of this change.

Break up crypto modules containing HW acceleration. This applies to all of AES, SHA-1, SHA-256 and SHA-512. All those source files previously contained multiple implementations of the algorithm, enabled or disabled by ifdefs detecting whether they would work on a given compiler. And in order to get advanced machine instructions like AES-NI or NEON crypto into the output file when the compile flags hadn't enabled them, we had to do nasty stuff with compiler-specific pragmas or attributes. Now we can do the detection at cmake time, and enable advanced instructions in the more sensible way, by compile-time flags. So I've broken up each of these modules into lots of sub-pieces: a file called (e.g.) 'foo-common.c' containing common definitions across all implementations (such as round constants), one called 'foo-select.c' containing the top-level vtable(s), and a separate file for each implementation exporting just the vtable(s) for that implementation. One advantage of this is that it depends a lot less on compiler- specific bodgery. My particular least favourite part of the previous setup was the part where I had to _manually_ define some Arm ACLE feature macros before including <arm_neon.h>, so that it would define the intrinsics I wanted. Now I'm enabling interesting architecture features in the normal way, on the compiler command line, there's no need for that kind of trick: the right feature macros are already defined and <arm_neon.h> does the right thing. Another change in this reorganisation is that I've stopped assuming there's just one hardware implementation per platform. Previously, the accelerated vtables were called things like sha256_hw, and varied between FOO-NI and NEON depending on platform; and the selection code would simply ask 'is hw available? if so, use hw, else sw'. Now, each HW acceleration strategy names its vtable its own way, and the selection vtable has a whole list of possibilities to iterate over looking for a supported one. So if someone feels like writing a second accelerated implementation of something for a given platform - for example, I've heard you can use plain NEON to speed up AES somewhat even without the crypto extension - then it will now have somewhere to drop in alongside the existing ones.
