In case anyone else would like this same process I have included some general documentation below: 1) git clone openssl project 2) edit util/mkdef.pl<http://util/mkdef.pl> for <openssl/mycipher.h> header file (header file must be extern and have (void) in function declaration if no arguments are being passed) 3) edit Configure (line 313ish) and add in crypto function amongst others 4) create build.info<http://build.info/> under /crypto/mycipher/ (follow other crypto build.info<http://build.info>’s to create) 5) ./config 6) make update 7) make -j <thread count> Rob On Dec 31, 2016, at 5:52 PM, openssl-dev-requ...@openssl.org<mailto:openssl-dev-requ...@openssl.org> wrote: Re: Linker error when adding new cipher in crypto folder
