CFFI bindings for mbedTLS

Description

cl-mbedtls provides CFFI bindings for mbedTLS, a secure networking and encryption library. cl-mbedtls is still work in progress. It currently provides enough features to run PolarSeal. Supports SBCL and CCL.

Installation

• Configure & build mbedTLS

  • Download and unpack mbedTLS

  • Enable MBEDTLS_THREADING_PTHREAD and MBEDTLS_THREADING_C in include/mbedtls/config.h

  • Build mbedTLS using

    $ cmake -DUSE_SHARED_MBEDTLS_LIBRARY=On .
    $ make
    $ sudo make install
    

• Install dependencies

  • log2
  • Via quicklisp:
    • bordeaux-threads
    • cl-utilities

• Build and load cl-mbedtls

  • Run make in the cl-mbedtls folder

    This should generate the ctypes executable, mbed-ctypes.cl and libmbed_aux.so

  • Load with ASDF:

    (asdf:load-system :cl-mbedtls)
    

ToDo

• Fix memory leaks
• Improve installation process
• Add documentation
• Add hashing APIs
