This commit adds human readable error messages when mbedtls or axtls raise
an exception. Currently often just an EIO error is raised so the user is
lost and can't tell whether it's a cert error, buffer overrun, connecting
to a non-ssl port, etc. The axtls and mbedtls error raising in the ussl
module is modified to raise:
OSError(-err_num, "error string")
For axtls a small error table of strings is added and used for the second
argument of the OSErrer. For mbedtls the code uses mbedtls' built-in
strerror function, and if there is an out of memory condition it just
produces OSError(-err_num). Producing the error string for mbedtls is
conditional on them being included in the mbedtls build, via
MBEDTLS_ERROR_C.
It consists of:
1. "do_handhake" param (default True) to wrap_socket(). If it's False,
handshake won't be performed by wrap_socket(), as it would be done in
blocking way normally. Instead, SSL socket can be set to non-blocking mode,
and handshake would be performed before the first read/write request (by
just returning EAGAIN to these requests, while instead reading/writing/
processing handshake over the connection). Unfortunately, axTLS doesn't
really support non-blocking handshake correctly. So, while framework for
this is implemented on MicroPython's module side, in case of axTLS, it
won't work reliably.
2. Implementation of .setblocking() method. It must be called on SSL socket
for blocking vs non-blocking operation to be handled correctly (for
example, it's not enough to wrap non-blocking socket with wrap_socket()
call - resulting SSL socket won't be itself non-blocking). Note that
.setblocking() propagates call to the underlying socket object, as
expected.
This test just tests that the basic functions/methods can be called with
the appropriate arguments. There is no real test of underlying
functionality.
Thanks to @hosaka for the initial implementation of this test.
