Removals
* The RSA module no longer supports private-key operations with the public
key and vice versa. This change only affects applications which use the
wrong mode. In this case the wrong mode is to use mode=MBEDTLS_RSA_PUBLIC
with decryption and signing functions and mode=MBEDTLS_RSA_PRIVATE with
encryption and verification functions. Addresses issue #4278.
key and vice versa.
API changes
* Remove mode parameter from RSA functions. All encryption,
decryption, sign and verify functions are affected. Also
removes the RNG parameters from the RSA verify functions.
Existing user code which utilises these RSA functions must
remove the mode parameter.
* RNG is now mandatory for all private-key RSA operations. Existing user code
which does not use an RNG with private-key RSA functions must now be
updated to do so.
* Remove the mode parameter from RSA operation functions. Signature and
decryption functions now always use the private key and verification and
encryption use the public key. Verification functions also no longer have
RNG parameters.
* The RNG is now mandatory for all private-key RSA operations.
