This change adds the HighwayHash256 PRF as bitrot protection / detection
algorithm. Since HighwayHash256 requires a 256 bit we generate a random
key from the first 100 decimals of π - See nothing-up-my-sleeve-numbers.
This key is fixed forever and tied to the HighwayHash256 bitrot algorithm.
Fixes#5358
- over the course of a project history every maintainer needs to update
its dependency packages, the problem essentially with godep is manipulating
GOPATH - this manipulation leads to static objects created at different locations
which end up conflicting with the overall functionality of golang.
This also leads to broken builds. There is no easier way out of this other than
asking developers to do 'godep restore' all the time. Which perhaps as a practice
doesn't sound like a clean solution. On the other hand 'godep restore' has its own
set of problems.
- govendor is a right tool but a stop gap tool until we wait for golangs official
1.5 version which fixes this vendoring issue once and for all.
- govendor provides consistency in terms of how import paths should be handled unlike
manipulation GOPATH.
This has advantages
- no more compiled objects being referenced in GOPATH and build time GOPATH
manging which leads to conflicts.
- proper import paths referencing the exact package a project is dependent on.
govendor is simple and provides the minimal necessary tooling to achieve this.
For now this is the right solution.
$ ./minio --tls --cert <your_cert> --key <your_private_key>
This patchset also provides crypto/x509 - which is a wrapper package
to generate X509 certificates.
This is necessary to provide certificates later through management console
