3# openHiTLS
4Welcome to visit the openHiTLS Code Repository, which is under the openHiTLS community: <https://openhitls.net>. openHiTLS aims to provide highly efficient and agile open-source SDKs for Cryptography and Transport Layer Security in all scenarios. openHiTLS is developing and supports some common standard cryptographic algorithms, (D)TLS, (D)TLCP protocols currently. More features are to be planned.
5
6## Overview
7
8The architecture of openHiTLS is highly modular, and openHiTLS can be configured in modules and features. The RAM/ROM footprint depends on the features selected. It provides the optimal performance optimization for cryptographic algorithms. Currently, 5 components and cryptographic algorithms are configured, and the performance optimization of ShangMi cryptographic algorithms on ARM, x86 is ready. More architectures and features are to be planned.

10## Feature Introduction
11
12### Functional Features
13
14- Protocols:Support TLS1.3, TLS1.3-Hybrid-Key-Exchange, TLS-Provider, TLS-Multi-KeyShare, TLS-Custom-Extension, TLCP, DTLCP, TLS1.2, DTLS1.2, Auth;
15- Algorithms:Support ML-DSA,ML-KEM,SLH-DSA,AES,SM4,Chacha20,RSA,RSA-Bind,DSA,ECDSA,ECDH,DH,SM2,DRBG,DRBG-GM,HKDF,SCRYPT,PBKDF2,SHA2,SHA3,MD5,SM3,HMAC etc.;
16- PKI:Support Certificate, CRL parsing, Certificate, CRL validation, Certificate requests, generation etc.
17
18### DFX Features
19
20- Highly modular features, support trimming features as required.
21- Algorithm performance optimization based on ARMv8 and x8664 CPU.
22- Support for maintainability and testability based on logging and error stack functionality.
23
24## Component Introduction
25
26openHiTLS include 5 components currently. The BSL component will be used with other components.
27- The bsl is short for Base Support Layer, which provides the base C standand enhanced functions and OS adapter. It will be used with other modules
28- The crypto is short for cryptographic algorithms, which provides the full cryptographic functions with high performance. It will be used by tls, and can also be used with bsl
29- The tls is short for Transport Layer Security, which provides all tls protocol versions up to tls1.3. It will be used with crypto and bsl or other third-party crypto and pki libraries
30- The PKI component provides functions such as certificate and CRL parsing, certificate and CRL validation, as well as certificate request and generation.
31- The Auth component provides the authentication function. Currently, it provides the publicly token authentication based on RFC9578

33## Development
34
35### Dependency Preparation
36
37openHiTLS depends on Secure C which should be downloaded to ${openHiTLS_dir}/platform/Secure_C. One of the official git repositories of Secure C is located at <https://gitee.com/openeuler/libboundscheck>.
38
39* Download the security library
40
41```bash
42# Method 1: Pull it with the openHiTLS code repository
43git clone --recurse-submodules https://gitcode.com/openhitls/openhitls.git
44
45# Method 2: Pull the security library separately
46git clone https://gitcode.com/openhitls/openhitls.git
47cd ${openHiTLS_dir}
48git clone https://gitee.com/openeuler/libboundscheck platform/Secure_C
49```
50
51* Build security library
52```bash
53cd ${openHiTLS_dir}/platform/Secure_C
54make -j
55```
56
57### For Application Developers
58
59Source code mirroring of the official releases is pending for planning.
60
61
62The official source code repository is located at <https://gitcode.com/openhitls>. A local copy of the git repository can be obtained by cloning it using:
63```
64git clone https://gitcode.com/openhitls/openhitls.git
65```
66If you are going to contribute, you need to fork the openhitls repository on gitee and clone your public fork instead:
67```
68git clone https://gitcode.com/"your gitcode name"/openhitls.git
69```
