Build fails with unset MBEDTLS_DHM_C but MBEDTLS_USE_PSA_CRYPTO set

Summary

Build fails with the following custom configuration:

set: MBEDTLS_USE_PSA_CRYPTO
unset: MBEDTLS_DHM_C
unset: MBEDTLS_KEY_EXCHANGE_DHE_PSK_ENABLED
unset: MBEDTLS_KEY_EXCHANGE_DHE_RSA_ENABLED

System information

Mbed TLS version: v3.6.0 and development branch Operating system and version: macOS 12.6 Configuration: please see "Steps to reproduce" section below Compiler and options: Apple clang version 14.0.0 (clang-1400.0.29.202), Xcode 14.2 (14C18), SDK: MacOSX13.1.sdk

Expected behavior

Compilation should work with MBEDTLS_USE_PSA_CRYPTO set, regardless of MBEDTLS_DHM_C being set or unset.

Actual behavior

Build fails with following output:

Steps to reproduce

Clone repo and checkout development or mbedtls-3.6 branch

Set custom config:

# Run in Terminal inside the repo folder:
scripts/config.pl unset MBEDTLS_DHM_C && \
scripts/config.pl unset MBEDTLS_KEY_EXCHANGE_DHE_PSK_ENABLED && \
scripts/config.pl unset MBEDTLS_KEY_EXCHANGE_DHE_RSA_ENABLED && \
scripts/config.pl set MBEDTLS_USE_PSA_CRYPTO

Build release using CMake

Additional information

I've already created a working local patch and the PR will follow soon.

To reproduce this warning, you need:

TLS 1.2 server support enabled (MBEDTLS_SSL_SRV_C and MBEDTLS_SSL_PROTO_TLS1_2);
ECDH-PSK key exchange enabled (MBEDTLS_KEY_EXCHANGE_ECDHE_PSK_ENABLED);
FFDH disabled (no PSA_WANT_ALG_FFDH or MBEDTLS_DHM_C);
RSA enabled so that PSA_EXPORT_PUBLIC_KEY_MAX_SIZE >= 256 (that's where 528 comes from in the diagnostic);
MBEDTLS_USE_PSA_CRYPTO enabled;
build with Clang (any vintage we have on the CI).

We don't get this warning in the CI because we don't have a build with all of these characteristics. Checking the outcome file from https://github.com/Mbed-TLS/mbedtls/pull/9172, only the following builds have MBEDTLS_RSA_C but not MBEDTLS_DHM_C:

component_test_full_no_bignum
component_test_psa_crypto_config_accel_ffdh
config-no-entropy.h

full_no_bignum having RSA enabled is a bug, but anyway it legitimately doesn't have DHM. psa_crypto_config_accel_ffdh has FFDH, just accelerated. config-no-entropy.h doesn't have TLS.

So we have a test coverage gap. I need to think a little what new configuration(s) we should be testing. Considering how the relative sizes of various things in TLS depend on whether RSA or FFDH are enabled, there are potential buffer overflows that we aren't checking.
