Per BoringSSL's FIPS policy, its `main` branch is the "update branch"
for FedRAMP compliance's purposes.
This means that we can stop using a specific BoringSSL branch when
enabling FIPS, as well as a number of hacks that allowed us to build
more recent BoringSSL versions with an older pre-compiled FIPS modules.
This also required slightly updating the main BoringSSL submodule, as
the previous version had an issue when building with the FIPS option
enabled. This is turn required some changes to the PQ patch as well as
some APIs that don't seem to be exposed publicly, as well as changing
some paths in the other patches.
In order to allow a smooth upgrade of internal projects, the `fips-compat`
feature is reduced in scope and renamed to `legacy-compat-deprecated` so
that we can incrementally upgrade internal BoringSSL forks. In practice
this shouldn't really be something anyone else would need, since in
order to work it requires a specific mix of BoringSSL version and
backported patches.
Newer versions of FIPS don't need any special casing in our bindings,
unlike the submoduled boringssl-fips. In addition, many users currently
use FIPS by precompiling BoringSSL with the proper build tools and
passing that in to the bindings.
Until we adopt the Update Stream pattern for FIPS, there are two main
use cases:
1. Passing an unmodified, precompiled FIPS validated version of
boringssl (fips-precompiled)
2. Passing a custom source directory of boringssl meant to be linked
with a FIPS validated bcm.o. This is mainly useful if you carry
custom patches but still want to use a FIPS validated BoringCrypto.

This commit introduces the `fips-precompiled` feature and removes the
`fips-no-compat` feature.
Internal users often have two builds for `boring`, one using a
precompiled build of boringSSL and another built from source with
patches applied. However the features that enable these builds are
mutually exclusive. For example, the `"pq-experimental"` feature is
required to build the source with all of the necessary codepoints for PQ
key exchange, but if this feature is enabled and a precompiled boringSSL
is provided, then the build will fail. This means users will have to
also control their builds with mutually exclusive features.
An alternative is to *ignore* features that enable patches whenever a
precompiled boringSSL is provided. This is a little different from the
"assume patched" environment variable, which applies whenever we're
building from source.
Modify the "fips" feature so that it no longer implies "fips-compat".
The latter is no longer needed for recent builds of boringSSL; users who
need older builds will need to enable "fips-compat" explicitly.
Also, remove the "fipps-no-compat" feature, as it's now equivalent to
"fips".
As of boringSSL commit a430310d6563c0734ddafca7731570dfb683dc19, we no
longer need to make exceptions for the types of BufLen, ProtosLen, and
ValueLen, which means the "fips-compat" feature is no longer needed for
"fips" users.
Currently "fips" implies "fips-compat". To allow users to upgrade
without breaking API compatibility with boring version 4, add a new
feature, "fips-no-compat", that does not imply "fips-compat".
In boring 5, we should remove "fips-no-compat" and decouple
"fips-compat" from "fips".
There's a bug on OSX that prevents the CMake jobserver from working
properly, and so CMake defaults to a single-threaded build. It's not
clear when this is actually going to get fixed, so recent versions of
cmake-rs just disable the jobserver and have CMake fall back to the
number of available cores:
https://github.com/rust-lang/cmake-rs/pull/229
This means we don't need e6833b0074
cmake-rs' jobserver doesn't work reliably, if at all. One workaround is
to set CMAKE_BUILD_PARALLEL_LEVEL to available_parallelism(). On my
machine it shaves ~35 seconds off of boring-sys builds.
We don't need the workaround that was initially introduced for a bug in
openssl, and OPENSSL_init_ssl always calls into CRYPTO_library_init on
boringssl, so just call it explicitly.
As of https://boringssl-review.googlesource.com/c/boringssl/+/66288,
libssl allows a C++ runtime dependency. As such, we need to link with a
cpp runtime library. Implementation is inspired heavily from
54c956b2e6.
Before releasing this change, we'll need to figure out a way to support
this for windows.
With the bindgen 0.70 upgrade, the default rust target is set to be 1.77,
which becomes the de facto MSRV of boring-sys since the change.
This change makes sure that the MSRV of boring-sys is kept at 1.70,
which is the same as that of bindgen.
Fix three potential timing sidechannels. These don't affect ephemeral
usage of Kyber as in TLS, but it's good practice to get rid of them anyway.
Also adds IPDWing, a preliminary version of X-Wing using the initial public
draft (IPD) of ML-KEM. Don't use it.
When passing BORING_BSSL_FIPS_PATH, you need to add /lib/ to the search
path, and when passing BORING_BSSL_PATH you need to add /crypto/ and
/ssl/ to the search path.
We need to add `/build/crypto` and `/build/ssl` to the library search
path to handle the case where we pass `BORING_BSSL_SOURCE_PATH` when
building without enabling any fips features. Otherwise, non bazel
commits will not work because `/build/` itself will not contain any
crypto libraries to link with
