widening: duplicate generateellipsesbundle2() for widening The widening and the non-widening code are quite different. It will be clearer to have them as sepearate functions. To start with, I've just copied it exactly, so it's clearer over the next few patches how they're different. The new function should gradually become more similar to bundle2.widen_bundle(), and should perhaps eventually be merged with that function. However, I've left it in narrowbundle2.py for now since it still depends on constants like _KILLNODESIGNAL there. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D7092

Generate a private key (priv.pem):

  $ openssl genrsa -out priv.pem 2048

Generate 2 self-signed certificates from this key (pub.pem, pub-other.pem):

  $ openssl req -new -x509 -key priv.pem -nodes -sha256 -days 9000 \
    -out pub.pem -batch -subj '/CN=localhost/emailAddress=hg@localhost/'
  $ openssl req -new -x509 -key priv.pem -nodes -sha256 -days 9000 \
    -out pub-other.pem -batch -subj '/CN=localhost/emailAddress=hg@localhost/'

Now generate an expired certificate by turning back the system time:

  $ faketime 2016-01-01T00:00:00Z \
    openssl req -new -x509 -key priv.pem -nodes -sha256 -days 1 \
    -out pub-expired.pem -batch -subj '/CN=localhost/emailAddress=hg@localhost/'

Generate a certificate not yet active by advancing the system time:

  $ faketime 2030-01-1T00:00:00Z \
    openssl req -new -x509 -key priv.pem -nodes -sha256 -days 1 \
    -out pub-not-yet.pem -batch -subj '/CN=localhost/emailAddress=hg@localhost/'

Generate a passphrase protected client certificate private key:

  $ openssl genrsa -aes256 -passout pass:1234 -out client-key.pem 2048

Create a copy of the private key without a passphrase:

  $ openssl rsa -in client-key.pem -passin pass:1234 -out client-key-decrypted.pem

Create a CSR and sign the key using the server keypair:

  $ printf '.\n.\n.\n.\n.\n.\nhg-client@localhost\n.\n.\n' | \
    openssl req -new -key client-key.pem -passin pass:1234 -out client-csr.pem
  $ openssl x509 -req -days 9000 -in client-csr.pem -CA pub.pem -CAkey priv.pem \
    -set_serial 01 -out client-cert.pem

When replacing the certificates, references to certificate fingerprints will
need to be updated in test files.

Fingerprints for certs can be obtained by running:

  $ openssl x509 -in pub.pem -noout -sha1 -fingerprint
  $ openssl x509 -in pub.pem -noout -sha256 -fingerprint
