To test the certgen or csr_example example(s) configure wolfssl with
./configure --enable-certgen --enable-certreq or add the defines:
#define WOLFSSL_CERT_REQ
#define WOLFSSL_CERT_GEN
To test the csr_w_ed25519_example configure wolfssl with:
./configure --enable-certgen --enable-certreq --enable-ed25519 --enable-keygen
or add the defines:
#define WOLFSSL_CERT_REQ
#define WOLFSSL_CERT_GEN
#define HAVE_ED25519
#define WOLFSSL_KEY_GEN
To build use make. To cleanup use make clean.
If having issues building please check comments in the Makefile for setting up your environment
To run the test do:

The alternate names feature is enabled with the wolfSSL build option
WOLFSSL_ALT_NAMES. In the certgen_example.c see the WOLFSSL_ALT_NAMES
sections for how to add this to a CSR.
Unfortunately wolfSSL does not yet have an API for this but this example shows how to setup your own ASN.1 format string for using with the wolfSSL certificate structure. TODO: Add an API for this!
