HOW TO CONTRIBUTE PATCHES TO OpenSSL
------------------------------------
(Please visit https://www.openssl.org/community/getting-started.html for
other ideas about how to contribute.)
Development is coordinated on the openssl-dev mailing list (see the
above link or https://mta.openssl.org for information on subscribing).
If you are unsure as to whether a feature will be useful for the general
OpenSSL community you might want to discuss it on the openssl-dev mailing
list first. Someone may be already working on the same thing or there
may be a good reason as to why that feature isn't implemented.
To submit a patch, make a pull request on GitHub. If you think the patch
could use feedback from the community, please start a thread on openssl-dev
to discuss it.
Having addressed the following items before the PR will help make the
acceptance and review process faster:
1. Anything other than trivial contributions will require a contributor
licensing agreement, giving us permission to use your code. See
https://www.openssl.org/policies/cla.html for details.
2. All source files should start with the following text (with
appropriate comment characters at the start of each line and the
year(s) updated):
Copyright 20xx-20yy The OpenSSL Project Authors. All Rights Reserved.
Licensed under the OpenSSL license (the "License"). You may not use
this file except in compliance with the License. You can obtain a copy
in the file LICENSE in the source distribution or at
https://www.openssl.org/source/license.html
3. Patches should be as current as possible; expect to have to rebase
often. We do not accept merge commits; You will be asked to remove
them before a patch is considered acceptable.
4. Patches should follow our coding style (see
https://www.openssl.org/policies/codingstyle.html) and compile without
warnings. Where gcc or clang is available you should use the
--strict-warnings Configure option. OpenSSL compiles on many varied
platforms: try to ensure you only use portable features.
Clean builds via Travis and AppVeyor are expected, and done whenever
a PR is created or updated.
5. When at all possible, patches should include tests. These can
either be added to an existing test, or completely new. Please see
test/README for information on the test framework.
6. New features or changed functionality must include
documentation. Please look at the "pod" files in doc/apps, doc/crypto
and doc/ssl for examples of our style.
