1bssl-sys 2============ 3 4A low-level binding crate for Rust that moves in lockstop with BoringSSL. 5 6### How it works 7`bssl-sys` uses `bindgen` as part of the cmake build process to generate Rust compatibility shims for the targeted platform. It is important to generate it for the correct platform because `bindgen` uses LLVM information for alignment which varies depending on architecture. 8 9### To Use 101. Build `boringssl` with `-DRUST_BINDINGS=<rust-triple>`, which should match the [Rust target triple](https://doc.rust-lang.org/nightly/rustc/platform-support.html) when building `bssl-sys`, 112. install `bindgen`, and 123. install [`cargo-deny`](https://github.com/EmbarkStudios/cargo-deny). 13 14After that, the `bssl-sys` crate can be built. By default, it looks for `bindgen` output and BoringSSL static libraries in the `build` directory. This can be reconfigured with `BORINGSSL_BUILD_DIR` environment variable. Note the environment variable is evaluated relative to `rust/bssl-sys/src`, so using an absolute path may be more convenient. 15
