Default crypto library is aws-lc
#8608
Comments
Ideal case: we use |
Do you mean switching to |
Yes |
I don't think it would be ideal, having fixed dependencies is a plus for me. Introducing extra complexity and brittleness to better handle uncommon builds (non linux/macos, non amd64/aarch64) is not a worth tradeoff in my view. |
The current default crypto library is
aes-gcm
since it has a broader compatibility without any additional dependencies, but it's also slower and different from release builds which are built usingaws-lc
.The default features in command should switch to
aws-lc
, and we should print a warning when compiling on a non-supported platform (linux/mac amd64/aarch64), advising the user of the possibility of using rust-crypto or adding the extra dependencies.Also, the CI will be using the default features rather than manually specifying them in multiple locations.
