I dug into this with gdb, and it seems like it's an omission in
LibreSSL's RSA-PSS support.  We're requesting a signature algorithm
with code 2054, which in their source is SIGALG_RSA_PSS_RSAE_SHA512,
and that leads them to this sigalgs[] table entry in
lib/libssl/ssl_sigalgs.c:

    {
        .value = SIGALG_RSA_PSS_RSAE_SHA512,
        .key_type = EVP_PKEY_RSA,
        .md = EVP_sha512,
        .security_level = 5,
        .flags = SIGALG_FLAG_RSA_PSS,
    },

The problem is that the private key has key_type EVP_PKEY_RSA_PSS
which is not equal to EVP_PKEY_RSA, so ssl_sigalg_pkey_ok() in the
same file rejects this entry as not compatible.  In fact, there
are *no* entries in sigalgs[] that can match a PSS private key
according to ssl_sigalg_pkey_ok().  So while perhaps
SIGALG_RSA_PSS_RSAE_SHA512 is the wrong thing for us to request,
I do not see a right thing.

Looking around a little more, there are places like
SSL_get_signature_type_nid() that do things like this:

    *nid = sigalg->key_type;
    if (sigalg->key_type == EVP_PKEY_RSA &&
        (sigalg->flags & SIGALG_FLAG_RSA_PSS))
        *nid = EVP_PKEY_RSA_PSS;

So it seems like this might be a simple oversight in
ssl_sigalg_pkey_ok(), which doesn't make any such correction:

    if (sigalg->key_type != EVP_PKEY_id(pkey))
        return 0;

Anyone know anything about where to submit LibreSSL bugs?

            regards, tom lane
