 Posted: Thu Jan 01, 2015 3:27 pm Post subject: [solved] How do I build opensl with NIST P-224 and P-256 ? |
 |

read this in the tor log : | Code: | Jan 01 15:13:18.000 [notice] We were built to run on a 64-bit CPU, with OpenSSL 1.0.1 or later, but with a version of OpenSSL that apparently lacks accelerated support for the NIST P-224 and P-256 groups. Building openssl with such support (using the enable-ec_nistp_64_gcc_128 option when configuring it) would make ECDH much faster.

toralf ... you could try using package.env (untested)
/etc/portage/env/openssl.conf
| Code: | | EXTRA_ECONF="enable-ec_nistp_64_gcc_128" |
/etc/portage/package.env
| Code: | | dev-libs/openssl openssl.conf |
HTH & best ... khay |

Hhm, won't work : | Code: | $> grep nist /etc/portage/package.env
dev-libs/openssl test ssl_nist
$> cat /etc/portage/env/ssl_nist
EXTRA_ECONF="enable-ec_nistp_64_gcc_128"
$> zgrep nistp.64 *openssl* *openssl*2015*
dev-libs:openssl-1.0.1j:20150102-135319.log.gz: no-ec_nistp_64_gcc_128 [default] OPENSSL_NO_EC_NISTP_64_GCC_128 (skip dir)

toralf ...
ok, bug 469976 seems to provide the rational of why its disabled. The specific section {dis,en}abling this is line 128 of the ebuild so its easily copied to a local overlay and uncommented.

ick - thx kay for pointing me to that bug, wasn't aware of it.
Well, I'll not test this at my tor relay - so I'll live w/o NIST algos. |
