This document describes how to update `deps/openssl/`.

If you need to provide updates across all active release lines you will
currently need to generate three PRs as follows:

* a PR for master which is generated following the instructions
below which include the QUIC patch.
* a PR for 14.x following the instruction below based on the
14,x branch but skipping the step to apply the QUICK patch.
This PR should cherry pick back to the active release lines
except for the 10.x line.
* a PR which uses the same commit from the second PR to apply the
updates to the openssl source code, with a new commit generated
by following steps 2 onwards on the 10.x line. This is
necessary because differences in 10.x requires that the
configuration files be regenerated specifically for 10.x.

## Requirements
* Linux environment.
* `perl` Only Perl version 5 is tested.
