Introduction

XQUIC Library released by Alibaba is …

a client and server implementation of QUIC and HTTP/3 as specified by the IETF. Currently supported QUIC versions are v1 and draft-29.

OS and platform agnostic. It currently supports Android, iOS, Linux, macOS and Windows. Most of the code is used in our own products, and has been tested at scale on android, iOS apps, as well as servers.

still in active development. Interoperability is regularly tested with other QUIC implementations.

Requirements

To build XQUIC, you need

  • CMake
  • BoringSSL or BabaSSL

To run test cases, you need

  • libevent
  • CUnit

QuickStart Guide

XQUIC supports both BabaSSL and BoringSSL.

Build with BoringSSL

# get XQUIC source code
git clone git@github.com:alibaba/xquic.git
cd xquic

# get and build BoringSSL
git clone git@github.com:google/boringssl.git ./third_party/boringssl
cd ./third_party/boringssl
mkdir -p build && cd build
cmake -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=0 -DCMAKE_C_FLAGS="-fPIC" -DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS="-fPIC" ..
make ssl crypto
cd ..
SSL_TYPE_STR="boringssl"
SSL_PATH_STR="${PWD}"
SSL_INC_PATH_STR="${PWD}/include"
SSL_LIB_PATH_STR="${PWD}/build/ssl/libssl.a;${PWD}/build/crypto/libcrypto.a"
cd ../..

# build XQUIC with BoringSSL
git submodule update --init --recursive
mkdir -p build; cd build
cmake -DGCOV=on -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug -DXQC_ENABLE_TESTING=1 -DXQC_SUPPORT_SENDMMSG_BUILD=1 -DXQC_ENABLE_EVENT_LOG=1 -DXQC_ENABLE_BBR2=1 -DXQC_DISABLE_RENO=0 -DSSL_TYPE=${SSL_TYPE_STR} -DSSL_PATH=${SSL_PATH_STR} -DSSL_INC_PATH=${SSL_INC_PATH_STR} -DSSL_LIB_PATH=${SSL_LIB_PATH_STR} ..
make -j

Build with BabaSSL

# get XQUIC source code
git clone git@github.com:alibaba/xquic.git
cd xquic

# get and build BabaSSL
git clone git@github.com:BabaSSL/BabaSSL.git ./third_party/babassl
cd ./third_party/babassl/
./config --prefix=/usr/local/babassl
make -j
SSL_TYPE_STR="babassl"
SSL_PATH_STR="${PWD}"
SSL_INC_PATH_STR="${PWD}/include"
SSL_LIB_PATH_STR="${PWD}/libssl.a;${PWD}/libcrypto.a"
cd -

# build XQUIC with BabaSSL
git submodule update --init --recursive
mkdir -p build; cd build
cmake -DGCOV=on -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug -DXQC_ENABLE_TESTING=1 -DXQC_SUPPORT_SENDMMSG_BUILD=1 -DXQC_ENABLE_EVENT_LOG=1 -DXQC_ENABLE_BBR2=1 -DXQC_DISABLE_RENO=0 -DSSL_TYPE=${SSL_TYPE_STR} -DSSL_PATH=${SSL_PATH_STR} -DSSL_INC_PATH=${SSL_INC_PATH_STR} -DSSL_LIB_PATH=${SSL_LIB_PATH_STR} ..
make -j
