Trevor Woerner bbef3812ba libwebsockets: use native sysroot's ssl config
During the compile step, CMake will attempt to generate a test
certificate with openssl-native using a hard-coded path to the openssl
config:

	openssl req -config /etc/ssl/openssl.cnf ...

Thus using the build host's openssl config. If the build host's openssl
is configured with options that openssl-native does not understand or
accept, the test certificate will not be generated:

[log.do_configure on openSUSE 16.0]
	Searching for OpenSSL executable and dlls
	OpenSSL executable: .../build/tmp/work/cortexa53-crypto-oe-linux/libwebsockets/4.5.2/recipe-sysroot-native/usr/bin/openssl
	 GENCERTS = 1
	Generating SSL Certificates for the test-server...

	CMake Warning at lib/tls/CMakeLists.txt:528 (message):
	  !!! Failed to generate SSL certificate for Test Server!!!:

	  OpenSSL return code = 1

and the subsequent do_install() step will fail:

	| CMake Error at test-apps/cmake_install.cmake:126 (file):
	|   file INSTALL cannot find
	|   ".../build/tmp/work/cortexa53-crypto-oe-linux/libwebsockets/4.5.2/build/libwebsockets-test-server.key.pem":
	|   No such file or directory.

	ERROR: Task (.../layers/meta-openembedded/meta-oe/recipes-connectivity/libwebsockets/libwebsockets_4.5.2.bb:do_install) failed with exit code '1'

Fix the location where CMake looks for the openssl.cnf file in order
to use the one that comes with the openssl-native that will be used to
generate the certificate. Thus ensuring that they are in step in terms
of which configuration options will be acceptable.

This layer depends on:

URI: git://github.com/openembedded/openembedded-core.git branch: master

luajit recipe requires host compiler to be able to generate 32bit code when target is 32bit e.g. arm, so ensure that $CC -m32 is functional on build host, if building this recipe, needed packages to fullfit this might have different names on different host distributions e.g. on archlinux based distributions install prerequisites like below

pacman -S lib32-gcc-libs lib32-glibc

Ubuntu sudo apt-get install gcc-multilib linux-libc-dev:i386

Send pull requests to openembedded-devel@lists.openembedded.org with '[meta-oe]' in the subject'

When sending single patches, please use something like: 'git send-email -M -1 --to openembedded-devel@lists.openembedded.org --subject-prefix="meta-oe][PATCH"'

You are encouraged to fork the mirror on GitHub https://github.com/openembedded/meta-openembedded to share your patches, this is preferred for patch sets consisting of more than one patch.

Note, it is discouraged to send patches via GitHub pull request system. Such patches get less attention from developers and can be mishandled or not reviewed properly. Please use emails instead. For exemple, you can use 'git request-pull' to generate an email referencing your git repository.

Other services like GitLab, repo.or.cz or self-hosted setups are of course accepted as well, 'git fetch ' works the same on all of them. We recommend GitHub because it is free, easy to use, has been proven to be reliable and has a really good web GUI.
