2019-12-30upstream: Replace the term "security key" with "(FIDO)naddy@openbsd.org
authenticator". The polysemous use of "key" was too confusing. Input from markus@. ok jmc@ OpenBSD-Commit-ID: 12eea973a44c8232af89f86e4269d71ae900ca8f

add a whitelist of paths from which ssh-agent will load (via ssh-pkcs11-helper) a PKCS#11 module; ok markus@ Upstream-ID: fe79769469d9cd6d26fe0dc15751b83ef2a06e8f

do not confuse mandoc by presenting "Dd"; Upstream-ID: 1470fce171c47b60bbc7ecd0fc717a442c2cfe65
2015-11-16upstream commitjcs@openbsd.org
Add an AddKeysToAgent client option which can be set to 'yes', 'no', 'ask', or 'confirm', and defaults to 'no'. When enabled, a private key that is used during authentication will be added to ssh-agent if it is running (with confirmation enabled if set to 'confirm'). Initial version from Joachim Schipper many years ago. ok markus@ Upstream-ID: a680db2248e8064ec55f8be72d539458c987d5f4

"commandline" -> "command line", since there are so few examples of the former in the pages, so many of the latter, and in some of these pages we had multiple spellings; prompted by tj Upstream-ID: 78459d59bff74223f8139d9001ccd56fc4310659

ECDH and ECDSA offer better performance than plain DH and DSA at the same equivalent symmetric key length, as well as much shorter keys. Only the mandatory sections of RFC5656 are implemented, specifically the three REQUIRED curves nistp256, nistp384 and nistp521 and only ECDH and ECDSA. Point compression (optional in RFC5656 is NOT implemented). Certificate host and user keys using the new ECDSA key types are supported.
