Comment on OpenSSL after Heartbleedparent

Comments

See https://crates.io/crates/ring , which is a fork of boringSSL, porting the C over to Rust. Endgame is 100% Rust and asm.

https://crates.io/crates/rustls is a TLS library built on top of ring.

Can it be used from C, e.g. C that statically links the library? Does it depend on the GC? What is the current speed? Thanks!

Edit: Re "just know they exist" (meaning libraries) in the answer: That's why I started the topic, the people who use only C wouldn't have chance to try the library unless the people who know enough Rust give something explicit that works and can be actually tested in linkability, functionality and speed.

  > Does it depend on the GC?
Rust has no GC.

I am not sure about your other questions, as I haven't used them directly, I just know they exist. :) The former is possible, but I don't know if the authors have done any work on that.
