<p dir="auto">We provide an API to replace bundled cipher implementations in gnutls. However, that API is rarely used (no users in codesearch), has a nice use case (an application replacing the crypto implementation with a faster), but has significant side effects. Any internal re-organization and extension of the cipher API (e.g., <a href="https://gitlab.com/gnutls/gnutls/issues/787" data-original="#787" data-link="false" data-link-reference="false" data-project="179611" data-issue="21804788" data-reference-type="issue" data-container="body" data-placement="bottom" title="Add gnutls_hmac_copy()" class="gfm gfm-issue has-tooltip">#787</a>), cannot be implemented without breaking that API.</p>
<p dir="auto">I propose to deprecate this API in 3.6.x series, and make it a no-op in 3.7.0. This bug is about marking it as deprecated in 3.6.x.</p>
<p dir="auto">It impacts:</p>
