Work around an NDK / Android bug. The NDK r16 sometimes generates binaries with the DF_1_PIE, which the runtime linker on Android N complains about. The next NDK revision should work around this but, in the meantime, strip its error out. https://github.com/android-ndk/ndk/issues/602 https://android-review.googlesource.com/c/platform/bionic/+/259790 https://android-review.googlesource.com/c/toolchain/binutils/+/571550 Change-Id: I99306d42f11179d5d19bd3f107a7386cc5c690db Reviewed-on: https://boringssl-review.googlesource.com/24884 Commit-Queue: Steven Valdez <svaldez@google.com> Reviewed-by: Steven Valdez <svaldez@google.com> CQ-Verified: CQ bot account: commit-bot@chromium.org <commit-bot@chromium.org>
BoringSSL is a fork of OpenSSL that is designed to meet Google's needs.
Although BoringSSL is an open source project, it is not intended for general use, as OpenSSL is. We don't recommend that third parties depend upon it. Doing so is likely to be frustrating because there are no guarantees of API or ABI stability.
Programs ship their own copies of BoringSSL when they use it and we update everything as needed when deciding to make API changes. This allows us to mostly avoid compromises in the name of compatibility. It works for us, but it may not work for you.
BoringSSL arose because Google used OpenSSL for many years in various ways and, over time, built up a large number of patches that were maintained while tracking upstream OpenSSL. As Google's product portfolio became more complex, more copies of OpenSSL sprung up and the effort involved in maintaining all these patches in multiple places was growing steadily.
Currently BoringSSL is the SSL library in Chrome/Chromium, Android (but it's not part of the NDK) and a number of other apps/programs.
