Currently we only check that the underlying EC_METHODs match, which avoids the points being in different forms, but not that the points are on the same curves. (We fixed the APIs early on so off-curve EC_POINTs cannot be created.) In particular, this comes up with folks implementating Java's crypto APIs with ECDH_compute_key. These APIs are both unfortunate and should not be mimicked, as they allow folks to mismatch the groups on the two multiple EC_POINTs. Instead, ECDH APIs should take the public value as a byte string. Thanks also to Java's poor crypto APIs, we must support custom curves, which makes this particularly gnarly. This CL makes EC_GROUP_cmp work with custom curves and adds an additional subtle requirement to EC_GROUP_set_generator. Annoyingly, this change is additionally subtle because we now have a reference cycle to hack around.

BoringSSL
BoringSSL is a fork of OpenSSL that is designed to meet Google's needs.
Although BoringSSL is an open source project, it is not intended for general use, as OpenSSL is. We don't recommend that third parties depend upon it. Doing so is likely to be frustrating because there are no guarantees of API or ABI stability.
Programs ship their own copies of BoringSSL when they use it and we update everything as needed when deciding to make API changes. This allows us to mostly avoid compromises in the name of compatibility. It works for us, but it may not work for you.
BoringSSL arose because Google used OpenSSL for many years in various ways and, over time, built up a large number of patches that were maintained while tracking upstream OpenSSL. As Google's product portfolio became more complex, more copies of OpenSSL sprung up and the effort involved in maintaining all these patches in multiple places was growing steadily.
Currently BoringSSL is the SSL library in Chrome/Chromium, Android (but it's not part of the NDK) and a number of other apps/programs.
