INSTALLATION ON THE UNIX PLATFORM
|
||||
---------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
[Installation on DOS (with djgpp), Windows, OpenVMS, MacOS (before MacOS X)
|
||||
and NetWare is described in INSTALL.DJGPP, INSTALL.W32, INSTALL.VMS,
|
||||
INSTALL.MacOS and INSTALL.NW.
|
||||
|
||||
This document describes installation on operating systems in the Unix
|
||||
family.]
|
||||
|
||||
To install OpenSSL, you will need:
|
||||
|
||||
* make
|
||||
* Perl 5
|
||||
* an ANSI C compiler
|
||||
* a development environment in form of development libraries and C
|
||||
header files
|
||||
* a supported Unix operating system
|
||||
|
||||
Quick Start
|
||||
-----------
|
||||
|
||||
If you want to just get on with it, do:
|
||||
|
||||
$ ./config
|
||||
$ make
|
||||
$ make test
|
||||
$ make install
|
||||
|
||||
[If any of these steps fails, see section Installation in Detail below.]
|
||||
|
||||
This will build and install OpenSSL in the default location, which is (for
|
||||
historical reasons) /usr/local/ssl. If you want to install it anywhere else,
|
||||
run config like this:
|
||||
|
||||
$ ./config --prefix=/usr/local --openssldir=/usr/local/openssl
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Configuration Options
|
||||
---------------------
|
||||
|
||||
There are several options to ./config (or ./Configure) to customize
|
||||
the build:
|
||||
|
||||
--prefix=DIR Install in DIR/bin, DIR/lib, DIR/include/openssl.
|
||||
Configuration files used by OpenSSL will be in DIR/ssl
|
||||
or the directory specified by --openssldir.
|
||||
|
||||
--openssldir=DIR Directory for OpenSSL files. If no prefix is specified,
|
||||
the library files and binaries are also installed there.
|
||||
|
||||
no-threads Don't try to build with support for multi-threaded
|
||||
applications.
|
||||
|
||||
threads Build with support for multi-threaded applications.
|
||||
This will usually require additional system-dependent options!
|
||||
See "Note on multi-threading" below.
|
||||
|
||||
no-zlib Don't try to build with support for zlib compression and
|
||||
decompression.
|
||||
|
||||
zlib Build with support for zlib compression/decompression.
|
||||
|
||||
zlib-dynamic Like "zlib", but has OpenSSL load the zlib library dynamically
|
||||
when needed. This is only supported on systems where loading
|
||||
of shared libraries is supported. This is the default choice.
|
||||
|
||||
no-shared Don't try to create shared libraries.
|
||||
|
||||
shared In addition to the usual static libraries, create shared
|
||||
libraries on platforms where it's supported. See "Note on
|
||||
shared libraries" below.
|
||||
|
||||
no-asm Do not use assembler code.
|
||||
|
||||
386 In 32-bit x86 builds, when generating assembly modules,
|
||||
use the 80386 instruction set only (the default x86 code
|
||||
is more efficient, but requires at least a 486). Note:
|
||||
This doesn't affect code generated by compiler, you're
|
||||
likely to complement configuration command line with
|
||||
suitable compiler-specific option.
|
||||
|
||||
no-sse2 Exclude SSE2 code paths from 32-bit x86 assembly modules.
|
||||
Normally SSE2 extension is detected at run-time, but the
|
||||
decision whether or not the machine code will be executed
|
||||
is taken solely on CPU capability vector. This means that
|
||||
if you happen to run OS kernel which does not support SSE2
|
||||
extension on Intel P4 processor, then your application
|
||||
might be exposed to "illegal instruction" exception.
|
||||
There might be a way to enable support in kernel, e.g.
|
||||
FreeBSD kernel can be compiled with CPU_ENABLE_SSE, and
|
||||
there is a way to disengage SSE2 code paths upon application
|
||||
start-up, but if you aim for wider "audience" running
|
||||
such kernel, consider no-sse2. Both the 386 and
|
||||
no-asm options imply no-sse2.
|
||||
|
||||
no-<cipher> Build without the specified cipher (bf, cast, des, dh, dsa,
|
||||
hmac, md2, md5, mdc2, rc2, rc4, rc5, rsa, sha).
|
||||
The crypto/<cipher> directory can be removed after running
|
||||
"make depend".
|
||||
|
||||
-Dxxx, -lxxx, -Lxxx, -fxxx, -mXXX, -Kxxx These system specific options will
|
||||
be passed through to the compiler to allow you to
|
||||
define preprocessor symbols, specify additional libraries,
|
||||
library directories or other compiler options. It might be
|
||||
worth noting that some compilers generate code specifically
|
||||
for processor the compiler currently executes on. This is
|
||||
not necessarily what you might have in mind, since it might
|
||||
be unsuitable for execution on other, typically older,
|
||||
processor. Consult your compiler documentation.
|
||||
|
||||
-DHAVE_CRYPTODEV Enable the BSD cryptodev engine even if we are not using
|
||||
BSD. Useful if you are running ocf-linux or something
|
||||
similar. Once enabled you can also enable the use of
|
||||
cryptodev digests, which is usually slower unless you have
|
||||
large amounts data. Use -DUSE_CRYPTODEV_DIGESTS to force
|
||||
it.
|
||||
|
||||
Installation in Detail
|
||||
----------------------
|
||||
|
||||
1a. Configure OpenSSL for your operation system automatically:
|
||||
|
||||
$ ./config [options]
|
||||
|
||||
This guesses at your operating system (and compiler, if necessary) and
|
||||
configures OpenSSL based on this guess. Run ./config -t to see
|
||||
if it guessed correctly. If you want to use a different compiler, you
|
||||
are cross-compiling for another platform, or the ./config guess was
|
||||
wrong for other reasons, go to step 1b. Otherwise go to step 2.
|
||||
|
||||
On some systems, you can include debugging information as follows:
|
||||
|
||||
$ ./config -d [options]
|
||||
|
||||
1b. Configure OpenSSL for your operating system manually
|
||||
|
||||
OpenSSL knows about a range of different operating system, hardware and
|
||||
compiler combinations. To see the ones it knows about, run
|
||||
|
||||
$ ./Configure
|
||||
|
||||
Pick a suitable name from the list that matches your system. For most
|
||||
operating systems there is a choice between using "cc" or "gcc". When
|
||||
you have identified your system (and if necessary compiler) use this name
|
||||
as the argument to ./Configure. For example, a "linux-elf" user would
|
||||
run:
|
||||
|
||||
$ ./Configure linux-elf [options]
|
||||
|
||||
If your system is not available, you will have to edit the Configure
|
||||
program and add the correct configuration for your system. The
|
||||
generic configurations "cc" or "gcc" should usually work on 32 bit
|
||||
systems.
|
||||
|
||||
Configure creates the file Makefile.ssl from Makefile.org and
|
||||
defines various macros in crypto/opensslconf.h (generated from
|
||||
crypto/opensslconf.h.in).
|
||||
|
||||
2. Build OpenSSL by running:
|
||||
|
||||
$ make
|
||||
|
||||
This will build the OpenSSL libraries (libcrypto.a and libssl.a) and the
|
||||
OpenSSL binary ("openssl"). The libraries will be built in the top-level
|
||||
directory, and the binary will be in the "apps" directory.
|
||||
|
||||
If the build fails, look at the output. There may be reasons
|
||||
for the failure that aren't problems in OpenSSL itself (like
|
||||
missing standard headers). If you are having problems you can
|
||||
get help by sending an email to the openssl-users email list (see
|
||||
https://www.openssl.org/community/mailinglists.html for details). If
|
||||
it is a bug with OpenSSL itself, please open an issue on GitHub, at
|
||||
https://github.com/openssl/openssl/issues. Please review the existing
|
||||
ones first; maybe the bug was already reported or has already been
|
||||
fixed.
|
||||
|
||||
(If you encounter assembler error messages, try the "no-asm"
|
||||
configuration option as an immediate fix.)
|
||||
|
||||
Compiling parts of OpenSSL with gcc and others with the system
|
||||
compiler will result in unresolved symbols on some systems.
|
||||
|
||||
3. After a successful build, the libraries should be tested. Run:
|
||||
|
||||
$ make test
|
||||
|
||||
If a test fails, look at the output. There may be reasons for
|
||||
the failure that isn't a problem in OpenSSL itself (like a missing
|
||||
or malfunctioning bc). If it is a problem with OpenSSL itself,
|
||||
try removing any compiler optimization flags from the CFLAG line
|
||||
in Makefile.ssl and run "make clean; make". Please send a bug
|
||||
report to <openssl-bugs@openssl.org>, including the output of
|
||||
"make report" in order to be added to the request tracker at
|
||||
http://www.openssl.org/support/rt.html.
|
||||
|
||||
4. If everything tests ok, install OpenSSL with
|
||||
|
||||
$ make install
|
||||
|
||||
This will create the installation directory (if it does not exist) and
|
||||
then the following subdirectories:
|
||||
|
||||
certs Initially empty, this is the default location
|
||||
for certificate files.
|
||||
man/man1 Manual pages for the 'openssl' command line tool
|
||||
man/man3 Manual pages for the libraries (very incomplete)
|
||||
misc Various scripts.
|
||||
private Initially empty, this is the default location
|
||||
for private key files.
|
||||
|
||||
If you didn't choose a different installation prefix, the
|
||||
following additional subdirectories will be created:
|
||||
|
||||
bin Contains the openssl binary and a few other
|
||||
utility programs.
|
||||
include/openssl Contains the header files needed if you want to
|
||||
compile programs with libcrypto or libssl.
|
||||
lib Contains the OpenSSL library files themselves.
|
||||
|
||||
Use "make install_sw" to install the software without documentation,
|
||||
and "install_docs_html" to install HTML renditions of the manual
|
||||
pages.
|
||||
|
||||
Package builders who want to configure the library for standard
|
||||
locations, but have the package installed somewhere else so that
|
||||
it can easily be packaged, can use
|
||||
|
||||
$ make INSTALL_PREFIX=/tmp/package-root install
|
||||
|
||||
(or specify "--install_prefix=/tmp/package-root" as a configure
|
||||
option). The specified prefix will be prepended to all
|
||||
installation target filenames.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
NOTE: The header files used to reside directly in the include
|
||||
directory, but have now been moved to include/openssl so that
|
||||
OpenSSL can co-exist with other libraries which use some of the
|
||||
same filenames. This means that applications that use OpenSSL
|
||||
should now use C preprocessor directives of the form
|
||||
|
||||
#include <openssl/ssl.h>
|
||||
|
||||
instead of "#include <ssl.h>", which was used with library versions
|
||||
up to OpenSSL 0.9.2b.
|
||||
|
||||
If you install a new version of OpenSSL over an old library version,
|
||||
you should delete the old header files in the include directory.
|
||||
|
||||
Compatibility issues:
|
||||
|
||||
* COMPILING existing applications
|
||||
|
||||
To compile an application that uses old filenames -- e.g.
|
||||
"#include <ssl.h>" --, it will usually be enough to find
|
||||
the CFLAGS definition in the application's Makefile and
|
||||
add a C option such as
|
||||
|
||||
-I/usr/local/ssl/include/openssl
|
||||
|
||||
to it.
|
||||
|
||||
But don't delete the existing -I option that points to
|
||||
the ..../include directory! Otherwise, OpenSSL header files
|
||||
could not #include each other.
|
||||
|
||||
* WRITING applications
|
||||
|
||||
To write an application that is able to handle both the new
|
||||
and the old directory layout, so that it can still be compiled
|
||||
with library versions up to OpenSSL 0.9.2b without bothering
|
||||
the user, you can proceed as follows:
|
||||
|
||||
- Always use the new filename of OpenSSL header files,
|
||||
e.g. #include <openssl/ssl.h>.
|
||||
|
||||
- Create a directory "incl" that contains only a symbolic
|
||||
link named "openssl", which points to the "include" directory
|
||||
of OpenSSL.
|
||||
For example, your application's Makefile might contain the
|
||||
following rule, if OPENSSLDIR is a pathname (absolute or
|
||||
relative) of the directory where OpenSSL resides:
|
||||
|
||||
incl/openssl:
|
||||
-mkdir incl
|
||||
cd $(OPENSSLDIR) # Check whether the directory really exists
|
||||
-ln -s `cd $(OPENSSLDIR); pwd`/include incl/openssl
|
||||
|
||||
You will have to add "incl/openssl" to the dependencies
|
||||
of those C files that include some OpenSSL header file.
|
||||
|
||||
- Add "-Iincl" to your CFLAGS.
|
||||
|
||||
With these additions, the OpenSSL header files will be available
|
||||
under both name variants if an old library version is used:
|
||||
Your application can reach them under names like <openssl/foo.h>,
|
||||
while the header files still are able to #include each other
|
||||
with names of the form <foo.h>.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Note on multi-threading
|
||||
-----------------------
|
||||
|
||||
For some systems, the OpenSSL Configure script knows what compiler options
|
||||
are needed to generate a library that is suitable for multi-threaded
|
||||
applications. On these systems, support for multi-threading is enabled
|
||||
by default; use the "no-threads" option to disable (this should never be
|
||||
necessary).
|
||||
|
||||
On other systems, to enable support for multi-threading, you will have
|
||||
to specify at least two options: "threads", and a system-dependent option.
|
||||
(The latter is "-D_REENTRANT" on various systems.) The default in this
|
||||
case, obviously, is not to include support for multi-threading (but
|
||||
you can still use "no-threads" to suppress an annoying warning message
|
||||
from the Configure script.)
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Note on shared libraries
|
||||
------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
Shared libraries have certain caveats. Binary backward compatibility
|
||||
can't be guaranteed before OpenSSL version 1.0. The only reason to
|
||||
use them would be to conserve memory on systems where several programs
|
||||
are using OpenSSL.
|
||||
|
||||
For some systems, the OpenSSL Configure script knows what is needed to
|
||||
build shared libraries for libcrypto and libssl. On these systems,
|
||||
the shared libraries are currently not created by default, but giving
|
||||
the option "shared" will get them created. This method supports Makefile
|
||||
targets for shared library creation, like linux-shared. Those targets
|
||||
can currently be used on their own just as well, but this is expected
|
||||
to change in future versions of OpenSSL.
|
||||
|
||||
Note on random number generation
|
||||
--------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
Availability of cryptographically secure random numbers is required for
|
||||
secret key generation. OpenSSL provides several options to seed the
|
||||
internal PRNG. If not properly seeded, the internal PRNG will refuse
|
||||
to deliver random bytes and a "PRNG not seeded error" will occur.
|
||||
On systems without /dev/urandom (or similar) device, it may be necessary
|
||||
to install additional support software to obtain random seed.
|
||||
Please check out the manual pages for RAND_add(), RAND_bytes(), RAND_egd(),
|
||||
and the FAQ for more information.
|
||||
|
||||
Note on support for multiple builds
|
||||
-----------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
OpenSSL is usually built in its source tree. Unfortunately, this doesn't
|
||||
support building for multiple platforms from the same source tree very well.
|
||||
It is however possible to build in a separate tree through the use of lots
|
||||
of symbolic links, which should be prepared like this:
|
||||
|
||||
mkdir -p objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
|
||||
cd objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
|
||||
(cd $OPENSSL_SOURCE; find . -type f) | while read F; do
|
||||
mkdir -p `dirname $F`
|
||||
rm -f $F; ln -s $OPENSSL_SOURCE/$F $F
|
||||
echo $F '->' $OPENSSL_SOURCE/$F
|
||||
done
|
||||
make -f Makefile.org clean
|
||||
|
||||
OPENSSL_SOURCE is an environment variable that contains the absolute (this
|
||||
is important!) path to the OpenSSL source tree.
|
||||
|
||||
Also, operations like 'make update' should still be made in the source tree.
