[15] RFR JDK-8242151 Improve OID mapping and reuse among JDK security providers for aliases registration

[Weijun Wang]

OidString.java
==============

1. ExtendedKeyUsage names: used to be "serverAuth", now "ServerAuth". First letter capitalized, is this necessary?

2. Can we move name2oidStr() from OidString to AlgorithmId? The computeOidTable process looks like an alien.

3. Two questions on the following lines:

 415         // set extra alias mappings or specify the preferred one when
 416         // one standard name maps to multiple enums
 417         // NOTE: key must use UPPER CASE
 418         name2enum.put("SHA1", SHA_1);
 419         name2enum.put("SHA", SHA_1);
 420         name2enum.put("SHA224", SHA_224);
 421         name2enum.put("SHA256", SHA_256);
 422         name2enum.put("SHA384", SHA_384);
 423         name2enum.put("SHA512", SHA_512);
 424         name2enum.put("SHA512/224", SHA_512$224);
 425         name2enum.put("SHA512/256", SHA_512$256);
 426         name2enum.put("DH", DiffieHellman);
 427         name2enum.put("DSS", SHA1withDSA);
 428         name2enum.put("RSA", RSA);

   a) For line 428, is this because both RSA and ITUX509_RSA have the same stdName and you are setting the preferred one? However, I can see that "DiffieHellman", "DSA", and "SHA1withDSA" also appear in multiple places. Do they need special attention?

   b) For the other lines, can we make this info somewhere inside the constructor? After all our goal is to consolidate all info in one single place, and a single line is better than a single file, esp, a very big file.

4. Are you sure the OID <-> name mapping is always the same everywhere (for all primitives and in all providers)? I mean for a stdName, if one OID alias is added in one place, should it always be added the same way in another? Have you compared the aliases map after this change?

5. I found KnownOIDs to be a better class name.

AlgorithmId.java
================

There are still many lines like

    public static final ObjectIdentifier MD2_oid = algOID(OidString.MD2);

here. Can they be eliminated? I use IntelliJ IDEA to find their usages and most are used in only one place and some are not used at all.


I haven't read other files yet. Will send more comment later.

Thanks,
Max

The current webrev attempts to cover all security classes where hard-coded oid strings and consolidate these known oid string values into a single enum type. The changes are quite extensive, I can trim back and only cover the provider algorithm oids if you prefer. There are pros and cons for both approach.

SecurityProviderConstants class defines the common mappings which are general to providers. Provider-specific alias mappings are handled in specific provider class, e.g. SunJSSE class.
