no-err
Don't compile in any error strings.
+ enable-external-tests
+ Enable building of integration with external test suites.
+ This is a developer option and may not work on all platforms.
+ The only supported external test suite at the current time is
+ the BoringSSL test suite. See the file test/README.external
+ for further details.

no-filenames
Don't compile in filename and line number information (e.g.
for errors and memory allocation).

loading an externally supplied engine.
- enable-heartbeats
- Build support for DTLS heartbeats.
-
no-hw-padlock
Don't build the padlock engine.
Don't build SRTP support
no-sse2
- Exclude SSE2 code paths. Normally SSE2 extension is
- detected at run-time, but the decision whether or not the
- machine code will be executed is taken solely on CPU
- capability vector. This means that if you happen to run OS
- kernel which does not support SSE2 extension on Intel P4
- processor, then your application might be exposed to
- "illegal instruction" exception. There might be a way
- to enable support in kernel, e.g. FreeBSD kernel can be
- compiled with CPU_ENABLE_SSE, and there is a way to
- disengage SSE2 code paths upon application start-up,
- but if you aim for wider "audience" running such kernel,
- consider no-sse2. Both the 386 and no-asm options imply
- no-sse2.

Don't try to build with support for multi-threaded

386
- On Intel hardware, use the 80386 instruction set only
- (the default x86 code is more efficient, but requires at
- least a 486). Note: Use compiler flags for any other CPU
- specific configuration, e.g. "-m32" to build x86 code on
- an x64 system.

Installation in Detail
("openssl"). The libraries will be built in the top-level directory,
and the binary will be in the "apps" subdirectory.
- If the build fails, look at the output. There may be reasons for
- the failure that aren't problems in OpenSSL itself (like missing
- standard headers). If you are having problems you can get help by
- sending an email to the openssl-users email list (see
- https://www.openssl.org/community/mailinglists.html for details). If it
