README for mbed TLS
|
|
===================
|
|
|
|
Configuration
|
|
=============
|
|
|
|
mbed TLS should build out of the box on most systems. Some platform specific options are available in the fully-documented configuration file *include/mbedtls/config.h*, which is also the place where features can be selected.
|
|
This file can be edited manually, or in a more programmatic way using the Perl
|
|
script *scripts/config.pl* (use *--help* for usage instructions).
|
|
|
|
Compiler options can be set using standard variables such as *CC* and *CFLAGS* when using the Make and CMake build system (see below).
|
|
|
|
Compiling
|
|
=========
|
|
|
|
There are currently three active build systems within the mbed TLS releases:
|
|
|
|
- Make
|
|
- CMake
|
|
- Microsoft Visual Studio (Visual Studio 6 and Visual Studio 2010)
|
|
|
|
The main system used for development is CMake. That system is always the most up-to-date. The others should reflect all changes present in the CMake build system, but some features are not ported there by default.
|
|
|
|
Make
|
|
----
|
|
|
|
We intentionally only use the absolute minimum of **Make** functionality, as we have discovered that a lot of **Make** features are not supported on all different implementations of Make on different platforms. As such, the Makefiles sometimes require some handwork or `export` statements in order to work for your platform.
|
|
|
|
In order to build the source using Make, just enter at the command line::
|
|
|
|
make
|
|
|
|
In order to run the tests, enter::
|
|
|
|
make check
|
|
|
|
In order to build for a Windows platform, you should use WINDOWS_BUILD=1 if the target is Windows but the build environment is Unix-like (eg when cross-compiling, or compiling from an MSYS shell), and WINDOWS=1 if the build environment is a Windows shell.
|
|
|
|
Setting the variable SHARED in your environment will build a shared library in addition to the static library. Setting DEBUG gives you a debug build. You can override CFLAGS and LDFLAGS by setting them in your environment or on the make command line; if you do so, essential parts such as -I will still be preserved. Warning options may be overridden separately using WARNING_CFLAGS.
|
|
|
|
Depending on your platform, you might run into some issues. Please check the Makefiles in *library/*, *programs/* and *tests/* for options to manually add or remove for specific platforms. You can also check `the mbed TLS Knowledge Base <https://tls.mbed.org/kb>`_ for articles on your platform or issue.
|
|
|
|
In case you find that you need to do something else as well, please let us know what, so we can add it to the KB.
|
|
|
|
CMake
|
|
-----
|
|
|
|
In order to build the source using CMake, just enter at the command line::
|
|
|
|
cmake .
|
|
|
|
make
|
|
|
|
There are many different build modes available within the CMake buildsystem. Most of them are available for gcc and clang, though some are compiler-specific:
|
|
|
|
- Release.
|
|
This generates the default code without any unnecessary information in the binary files.
|
|
- Debug.
|
|
This generates debug information and disables optimization of the code.
|
|
- Coverage.
|
|
This generates code coverage information in addition to debug information.
|
|
- ASan.
|
|
This instruments the code with AddressSanitizer to check for memory errors.
|
|
(This includes LeakSanitizer, with recent version of gcc and clang.)
|
|
(With recent version of clang, this mode also instruments the code with
|
|
UndefinedSanitizer to check for undefined behaviour.)
|
|
- ASanDbg.
|
|
Same as ASan but slower, with debug information and better stack traces.
|
|
- MemSan.
|
|
This instruments the code with MemorySanitizer to check for uninitialised
|
|
memory reads. Experimental, needs recent clang on Linux/x86_64.
|
|
- MemSanDbg.
|
|
Same as ASan but slower, with debug information, better stack traces and
|
|
origin tracking.
|
|
- Check.
|
|
This activates the compiler warnings that depend on optimization and treats
|
|
all warnings as errors.
|
|
|
|
Switching build modes in CMake is simple. For debug mode, enter at the command line:
|
|
|
|
cmake -D CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE:String="Debug" .
|
|
|
|
Note that, with CMake, if you want to change the compiler or its options after you already ran CMake, you need to clear its cache first, eg (using GNU find)::
|
|
|
|
find . -iname '*cmake*' -not -name CMakeLists.txt -exec rm -rf {} +
|
|
CC=gcc CFLAGS='-fstack-protector-strong -Wa,--noexecstack' cmake .
|
|
|
|
In order to run the tests, enter::
|
|
|
|
make test
|
|
|
|
Microsoft Visual Studio
|
|
-----------------------
|
|
|
|
The build files for Microsoft Visual Studio are generated for Visual Studio 6.0 and Visual Studio 2010.
|
|
|
|
The workspace 'mbedtls.dsw' contains all the basic projects needed to build the library and all the programs. The files in tests are not generated and compiled, as these need a perl environment as well.
|
|
|
|
Example programs
|
|
================
|
|
|
|
We've included example programs for a lot of different features and uses in *programs/*. Most programs only focus on a single feature or usage scenario, so keep that in mind when copying parts of the code.
|
|
|
|
Tests
|
|
=====
|
|
|
|
mbed TLS includes an elaborate test suite in *tests/* that initially requires Perl to generate the tests files (e.g. *test_suite_mpi.c*). These files are generates from a **function file** (e.g. *suites/test_suite_mpi.function*) and a **data file** (e.g. *suites/test_suite_mpi.data*). The **function file** contains the template for each test function. The **data file** contains the test cases, specified as parameters that should be pushed into a template function.
|
|
|
|
For machines with a Unix shell and OpenSSL (and optionally GnuTLS) installed, additional test scripts are available:
|
|
|
|
- *tests/ssl-opt.sh* runs integration tests for various TLS options (renegotiation, resumption, etc.) and tests interoperability of these options with other implementations.
|
|
- *tests/compat.sh* tests interoperability of every ciphersuite with other implementations.
|
|
- *tests/scripts/test-ref-configs.pl* test builds in various reduced configurations.
|
|
- *tests/scripts/all.sh* runs a combination of the above tests with various build options (eg ASan).
|
|
|
|
Configurations
|
|
==============
|
|
|
|
We provide some non-standard configurations focused on specific use cases in the configs/ directory. You can read more about those in configs/README.txt
|
|
|
|
Contributing
|
|
============
|
|
|
|
We graciously accept bugs and contributions from the community. There are some requirements we need to fulfil in order to be able to integrate contributions in the main code.
|
|
|
|
Simple bug fixes to existing code do not contain copyright themselves and we can integrate those without any issue. The same goes for trivial contributions.
|
|
|
|
For larger contributions, e.g. a new feature, the code possible falls under copyright law. We then need your consent to share in the ownership of the copyright. We have a form for that, which we will mail to you in case you submit a contribution or pull request that we deem this necessary for.
