Merge the nine wc_falcon_*.c cores into wolfcrypt/src/falcon.c, matching the one-file-per-algorithm convention (ed25519.c, wc_mldsa.c). Sign and keygen are gated internally on WOLFSSL_FALCON_VERIFY_ONLY and the internal helpers become static. The fpr/fft/poly primitives stay external (shared with the separate AVX2/NEON FFT backends) so their three headers are retained; the other five internal headers are removed.
wolfSSL CMake
This directory contains some supplementary functions for the CMakeLists.txt in the root.
See also cmake notes in the INSTALL documentation file. When building with autoconf/automake, CMake package files are installed by default under $(libdir)/cmake/wolfssl to support find_package(wolfssl). Disable with ./configure --disable-cmake-install.
If new CMake build options are added cmake/options.h.in must also be updated.
For more information on building wolfSSL, see the wolfSSL Manual.
In summary for cmake:
# From the root of the wolfSSL repo:
mkdir -p out
pushd out
cmake ..
cmake --build .
# View the available ciphers with:
./examples/client/client -e
popd
CMake Presets
The CMakePresets.json; see [cmake-presets(https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/manual/cmake-presets.7.html)
-
Cross-platform and cross-IDE.
-
Standardized CMake feature (since CMake 3.19+, recommended after 3.21).
-
Works in Visual Studio, VS Code, CLI, CI systems, etc..
Visual Studio Settings
There's also a Visual Studio specific file: CMakeSettings.json. This the file that supports the GUI CMake settings.
See the Microsoft CMakeSettings.json schema reference
Visual Studio (2022 v17.1 and later):
-
Prefers
CMakePresets.jsonif it exists. -
Falls back to
CMakeSettings.jsonif no presets are found. -
Lets you override or extend presets via
CMakeSettings.json.
Recommendations:
-
Use
CMakePresets.jsonto define shared, cross-platform presets. -
Use
CMakeSettings.jsonto define Visual Studio-specific overrides, like:- Custom output directories
- Specific environment variables
- *UI-related tweaks
