[Buildroot] [PATCH/next/RFC 1/1] package/nodejs: use host-libopenssl

[Yann E. MORIN]

Bernd, All,

On 2018-08-19 18:51 +0200, Bernd Kuhls spake thusly:
> host-nodejs is configured to build openssl by using its included openssl
> source code which is based on openssl 1.0.2. If host-libopenssl was
> already built its header files are being picked up during host-nodejs
> build, this was verified by adding debug code to
> $(HOST_DIR)/include/openssl/opensslv.h.
> 
> This situation was not a problem as long as host-libopenssl was the
> same version than the openssl code included in nodejs.
> 
> Some code in host-nodejs-8.11.4/src/node_crypto.cc is guarded by
> 
> 	#if OPENSSL_VERSION_NUMBER < 0x10100000L
> 
> to be used only with openssl 1.0.x.
> 
> This leads to problems if host-libopenssl 1.1.x was built before. Due
> to the usage of its header files some code in node_crypto.cc is not
> built leading to many linking errors later on, for example:
> 
> node_crypto.cc:(.text+0x1a1): undefined reference to `DH_get0_pqg'
> 
> When the nodejs package originally was added to buildroot back in
> March 2013:
> https://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=b31bc7d4387095091a109eb879464d54d37a5eab
> 
> We did not have a host-libopenssl package back then, it was added one
> month later:
> https://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=7842789cb539b6b64d61b03f5c8dbe6813f01da7
> 
> To fix the problem we use host-libopenssl for host-nodejs.
> By using host-libopenssl the build time of nodejs is reduced by ~15s.
