Build steps
-----------
Obtaining and verifying
-----------------------
The git tag for each release (e.g. `v0.6.0`) is GPG-signed by one of the maintainers.
For a fully verified build of this project, it is recommended to obtain this repository
via git, obtain the GPG keys of the signing maintainer(s), and then verify the release
tag's signature using git.
This can be done with the following steps:
1. Obtain the GPG keys listed in [SECURITY.md](./SECURITY.md).
2. If possible, cross-reference these key IDs with another source controlled by its owner (e.g.
social media, personal website). This is to mitigate the unlikely case that incorrect
content is being presented by this repository.
3. Clone the repository:
```
git clone https://github.com/bitcoin-core/secp256k1
```
4. Check out the latest release tag, e.g.
```
git checkout v0.6.0
```
5. Use git to verify the GPG signature:
```
% git tag -v v0.6.0 | grep -C 3 'Good signature'
gpg: Signature made Mon 04 Nov 2024 12:14:44 PM EST
gpg: using RSA key 4BBB845A6F5A65A69DFAEC234861DBF262123605
gpg: Good signature from "Jonas Nick <jonas@n-ck.net>" [unknown]
gpg: aka "Jonas Nick <jonasd.nick@gmail.com>" [unknown]
gpg: WARNING: This key is not certified with a trusted signature!
gpg: There is no indication that the signature belongs to the owner.
Primary key fingerprint: 36C7 1A37 C9D9 88BD E825 08D9 B1A7 0E4F 8DCD 0366
Subkey fingerprint: 4BBB 845A 6F5A 65A6 9DFA EC23 4861 DBF2 6212 3605

Building with Autotools
-----------------------
$ ./autogen.sh
$ ./configure
$ make
$ make check # run the test suite
$ sudo make install # optional
$ ./autogen.sh # Generate a ./configure script
$ ./configure # Generate a build system
$ make # Run the actual build process
$ make check # Run the test suite
$ sudo make install # Install the library into the system (optional)
To compile optional modules (such as Schnorr signatures), you need to run `./configure` with additional flags (such as `--enable-module-schnorrsig`). Run `./configure --help` to see the full list of available flags. For experimental modules, you will also need `--enable-experimental` as well as a flag for each individual module, e.g. `--enable-module-rangeproof`.

To compile optional modules (such as Schnorr signatures), you need to run `cmake` with additional flags (such as `-DSECP256K1_ENABLE_MODULE_SCHNORRSIG=ON`). Run `cmake -B build -LH` or `ccmake -B build` to see the full list of available flags.
### Cross compiling
To alleviate issues with cross compiling, preconfigured toolchain files are available in the `cmake` directory.
For example, to cross compile for Windows:
$ cmake .. -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=../cmake/x86_64-w64-mingw32.toolchain.cmake
$ cmake -B build -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=cmake/x86_64-w64-mingw32.toolchain.cmake
To cross compile for Android with [NDK](https://developer.android.com/ndk/guides/cmake) (using NDK's toolchain file, and assuming the `ANDROID_NDK_ROOT` environment variable has been set):
$ cmake .. -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE="${ANDROID_NDK_ROOT}/build/cmake/android.toolchain.cmake" -DANDROID_ABI=arm64-v8a -DANDROID_PLATFORM=28
$ cmake -B build -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE="${ANDROID_NDK_ROOT}/build/cmake/android.toolchain.cmake" -DANDROID_ABI=arm64-v8a -DANDROID_PLATFORM=28
