Upgrade BoringSSL

[jonasfj]

We need to upgrade BoringSSL, however, their build scripts have changed a bit. In particular how ASM files are added, so we might need to make some changes.

The logic is in:
https://github.com/google/webcrypto.dart/blob/master/tool/update-boringssl.py

We need to bump BORINGSSL_REVISION.

And then fix our build script generator logic, since asm_outputs parameter isn't give to WriteFiles anymore.

I tried playing with this, but we need to do more than simple remove the asm_outputs parameter.

There is some documentation in: https://boringssl.googlesource.com/boringssl/+/refs/heads/master/INCORPORATING.md

The rest is reading BoringSSL code and build system 🤣

I would like to help on this bug.

I have plans to upgrade boringssl, but haven't had the time. Last I tried it turned out that the python script had changed a lot. So we'll need to change how we generate lists of sources... And possibly how we build too. In any case, yes, it's something we want to do. @bhushangitfull, you are most welcome to help. I'd suggest making a fork, and trying to fix: https://github.com/google/webcrypto.dart/blob/master/tool/update-boringssl.py You could also try to the steps manually, and we can find out how to automatically roll it later. But I do thing we want rolls to be scripted, we don't want this package laggy behind boringssl. If you get something even partially working, please share as a separate branch. I'm currently on parental leave, but back next week and will hopefully find time to help with this eventually. tors. 16. jan. 2025, 04.11 skrev Buddhbhushan Kamble < ***@***.***>:

Hi @jonasfj, What do you think about using gith hub action workflow for making the rolling process automatic?

I don't mind, but let's get the rolling process working first :D
