298631 - Review the various versions returned by NSC_GetInfo, NSC_GetSlotInfo, and NSC_GetTokenInfo

Status: NEW

(NSS :: Libraries, defect, P2)

Description

[Wan-Teh Chang]

We should review the various versions returned by the
NSC_GetInfo, NSC_GetSlotInfo, and NSC_GetTokenInfo
functions in lib/softoken/pkcs11.c.  The meanings of
these versions are documented in the PKCS #11 spec.

We should use macros for these versions whenever such
macros exist.

We should consider using a libraryVersion (returned by
NSC_GetInfo) for libsoftokn3.so/softokn3.dll that is
independent of the NSS version so that we can freeze
libsoftokn3.so/softokn3.dll at the FIPS-validated version
and upgrade the rest of NSS.

We didn't have time to do this in this FIPS validation.
Let's try to do this in the next FIPS validation.

We have modified the bot to only consider P1 as high priority, so I'm cancelling the needinfo here.
