This is kind of interesting in a morbid sort of way:
undefined symbol: SSL_library_init
That's the old way to initialize OpenSSL. It is available in OpenSSL
1.0.2 and below. Does BoringSSL also use it? Also see
https://wiki.openssl.org/index.php/Library_Initialization.
Nowadays you should be initializing OpenSSL with OPENSSL_init_ssl()
and possibly OPENSSL_init_crypto(). Does BoringSSL also do it that way
nowadays? Also see
https://www.openssl.org/docs/manmaster/man3/OPENSSL_init_ssl.html
To see which libraries nginx is loading, issue the following. You
should see the output detail the libraries you expect from
/root/boringssl/build/ssl/libssl.so and
/root/boringssl/build/crypto/libcrypto.so (my output is from a distro
provided installation):
$ ldd $(command -v nginx)
linux-vdso.so.1 (0x00007ffc94bf8000)
libcrypt.so.2 => /lib64/libcrypt.so.2 (0x00007f05d0e33000)
libpcre2-8.so.0 => /lib64/libpcre2-8.so.0 (0x00007f05d0d98000)
libssl.so.3 => /lib64/libssl.so.3 (0x00007f05d0cf5000)
libcrypto.so.3 => /lib64/libcrypto.so.3 (0x00007f05d0800000)
libz.so.1 => /lib64/libz.so.1 (0x00007f05d0cdb000)
libprofiler.so.0 => /lib64/libprofiler.so.0 (0x00007f05d07e8000)
libc.so.6 => /lib64/libc.so.6 (0x00007f05d0606000)
libunwind.so.8 => /lib64/libunwind.so.8 (0x00007f05d05ec000)
libstdc++.so.6 => /lib64/libstdc++.so.6 (0x00007f05d0200000)
libm.so.6 => /lib64/libm.so.6 (0x00007f05d050b000)
libgcc_s.so.1 => /lib64/libgcc_s.so.1 (0x00007f05d04e7000)
/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x00007f05d0fda000)
I believe OPENSSL_init_ssl is part of libssl.so. You should be able to
verify the symbol is exported:
$ nm -D /lib64/libssl.so.3 | grep ' T ' | grep OPENSSL_init
00000000000309d0 T OPENSSL_init_ssl@@OPENSSL_3.0.0
Grepping for the capital ' T ' is important. It means you are grepping
for symbols that are defined, and not including undefined symbols:
$ nm -D /lib64/libssl.so.3 | grep OPENSSL_init
U OPENSSL_init_crypto@OPENSSL_3.0.0
00000000000309d0 T OPENSSL_init_ssl@@OPENSSL_3.0.0
And SSL_library_init is not present because my distro provides OpenSSL 3.0:
$ nm -D /lib64/libssl.so.3 | grep SSL_library_init
$
So it sounds like BoringSSL is doing something different than modern
OpenSSL. Or you are compiling and then runtime linking against
different versions of the libraries.
