Example build configurations

Example wolfSSL configuration file templates for use when autoconf is not available, such as building with a custom IDE.

Files

• user_settings_template.h: Template that allows modular algorithm and feature selection using #if 0/#if 1 gates.
• user_settings_all.h: This is wolfSSL with all features enabled. Equivalent to ./configure --enable-all.
• user_settings_arduino.h: An example Arduino file. See also wolfSSL/Arduino-wolfSSL.
• user_settings_EBSnet.h: Example configuration file for use with EBSnet ports.
• user_settings_eccnonblock.h: Example for non-blocking ECC crypto only. See comment at top for test results.
• user_settings_espressif.h: Example configuration for Espressif ESP32. See also wolfSSL/IDE/Espressif.
• user_settings_fipsv2.h: The FIPS v2 (3389) 140-2 certificate build options.
• user_settings_fipsv5.h: The FIPS v5 (ready) 140-3 build options. Equivalent to ./configure --enable-fips=v5-dev.
• user_settings_min_ecc.h: Minimal ECC and SHA-256 only (no TLS). For ECC verify only add NO_ECC_SIGN.
• user_settings_platformio.h: An example for PlatformIO library. See also platformio/wolfssl.
• user_settings_stm32.h: Example configuration file generated from the wolfSSL STM32 Cube pack.
• user_settings_tls12.h: Example for TLS v1.2 client only, ECC only, AES-GCM only, SHA2-256 only.
• user_settings_tls13.h: TLS 1.3 only configuration (no TLS 1.2). Modern cipher suites with X25519/X448 key exchange.
• user_settings_dtls13.h: DTLS 1.3 for IoT and embedded. Includes connection ID support and smaller MTU options.
• user_settings_pq.h: Post-quantum TLS with ML-KEM (Kyber) key exchange and ML-DSA (Dilithium) certificates.
• user_settings_openssl_compat.h: OpenSSL compatibility layer for drop-in replacement. Enables OPENSSL_ALL and related APIs.
• user_settings_baremetal.h: Bare metal configuration. No filesystem, static memory only, minimal footprint.
• user_settings_rsa_only.h: RSA-only configuration (no ECC). For legacy systems requiring RSA cipher suites.
• user_settings_pkcs7.h: PKCS#7/CMS configuration for signing and encryption. S/MIME, firmware signing.
• user_settings_ca.h: Certificate Authority / PKI operations. Certificate generation, signing, CRL, OCSP.
• user_settings_wolfboot_keytools.h: wolfBoot key generation and signing tool. Supports ECC, RSA, ED25519, ED448, and post-quantum (ML-DSA/Dilithium, LMS, XMSS).
• user_settings_wolfssh.h: Minimum options for building wolfSSH. See comment at top for ./configure used to generate.
• user_settings_wolftpm.h: Minimum options for building wolfTPM. See comment at top for ./configure used to generate.

Usage

1. Copy to your local project and rename to user_settings.h.
2. Add pre-processor macro WOLFSSL_USER_SETTINGS to your project.
3. Make sure and include #include <wolfssl/wolfcrypt/settings.h> prior to any other wolfSSL headers in your application.

Testing with Autoconf

To use these with autoconf:

1. Copy file to root as user_settings.h.
2. Run ./configure --enable-usersettings --disable-examples && make
