- =============================================================================
- Introduction
- =============================================================================
- OpenSSL is a well-known open source implementation of SSL/TLS protocols.
- The core library implements the cryptographic and SSL/TLS functions and
- also provides various utility functions. The OpenSSL library is widely used
- in variety of security products development as base crypto provider.
- (See http://www.openssl.org/ for more information about OpenSSL).
- UEFI (Unified Extensible Firmware Interface) is a specification detailing
- the interfaces between OS and platform firmware. Several security features
- were introduced (e.g. Authenticated Variable Service, Driver Signing, etc)
- from UEFI 2.2 (http://www.uefi.org/). These security features highly depend
- on the cryptography.
- This HOWTO documents OpenSSL building under UEFI/EDKII environment.
- =============================================================================
- OpenSSL-Version
- =============================================================================
- EDKII supports building with the latest release of OpenSSL.
- NOTE: Only latest release version was fully validated.
- And no guarantees on build & functionality if using other versions.
- =============================================================================
- HOW to Install OpenSSL for UEFI Building
- =============================================================================
- OpenSSL repository was added as one submodule of EDKII project. Please
- refer to edk2/Readme.md for how to clone the code.
- =============================================================================
- About process_files.pl
- =============================================================================
- "process_files.pl" is one Perl script which runs the OpenSSL Configure,
- then processes the resulting file list into our local OpensslLib.inf and
- OpensslLibCrypto.inf.
- This only needs to be done once by the maintainer / developer when
- updating to a new version of OpenSSL (or changing options, etc.).
- Normal users do not need do this, since the results are already stored in
- the EDKII git repository for them.
