Where to find legacy mbedtls documentation?

Question

I am looking for the legacy mbedtls documentation. It was available at tls.mbed.org before joining the trustedFirmware project. Now, sadly, it is not reachable anymore. Thanks!

Answer 1

tls.mbed.org only had the latest version, and then it froze at some point and was showing an old version until it went down. I haven't found a site hosting multiple versions of the documentation.

You can typeset the documentation on a typical Unix-like system (e.g. Linux or macOS or WSL or Cygwin) by checking out the version you want from the GitHub repository. This has the advantage that you can typeset the documentation for your configuration: after setting mbedtls/mbedtls_config.h (mbedtls/config.h in Mbed TLS 2.x), run

make apidoc

and browse apidoc/modules.html or apidoc/files.html.

If you want the whole documentation including all compile-time options and features that may or may not be enabled in your build, run

scripts/apidoc_full.sh

Note that this overwrites mbedtls/mbedtls_config.h.
