Changes between GMP version 6.1.1 and 6.1.2
BUGS FIXED
* Mini-GMP: Fixed a division bug, which on a machine with 64-bit
unsigned long affects approximately 1 out of 2^32 divisors.
* Mini-GMP: Fix mpz_set_str crash on inputs with a large number of
leading zeros. Also stricter input validation, rejecting inputs
with no digits.
FEATURES
* Handle more systems which require PIC code in static libraries (e.g.,
"hardened" Gentoo and Debian 9).
* Configuration for arm (-32 and -64) has been rewritten, fixing poor
code selection for many CPUs.
* Mini-GMP: Updated to the latest development version, including
new functions mpn_com and mpn_neg.
SPEEDUPS
* None, except for arm CPUs affected by the configuration rewrite.
BUGS FIXED
* Make Intel Broadwell configurations work on Windows.
FEATURES
* Work around faulty cpuid on some recent Intel chips (this allows GMP to run on Skylake Pentiums).
* Support thumb-less ARM chips.
Changes between GMP version 6.0.* and 6.1.0
BUGS FIXED
* The public function mpn_com is now correctly declared in gmp.h.
* Healed possible failures of mpn_sec_sqr for non-cryptographic sizes for
some obsolete CPUs.
* The option --disable-assembly now disables all inlined asm.
* Fixed bug affecting mini-gmp's bitwise functions mpz_setbit, mpz_clrbit,
and mpz_combit.
* Various problems related to precision for mpf have been fixed.
* Fixed ABI incompatible stack alignment in calls from assembly code.
* Fixed PIC bug in popcount affecting Intel processors using the 32-bit ABI.
SPEEDUPS
* Speedup for Intel Broadwell and Skylake though assembly code making use of
new ADX instructions.
* Square root is now faster when the remainder is not needed. Also the speed
to compute the k-th root improved, for small sizes.
* Improved arm64 support.
FEATURES
* New C++ functions gcd and lcm for mpz_class.
* New public mpn functions mpn_divexact_1, mpn_zero_p, and mpn_cnd_swap.
* New public mpq_cmp_z function, to efficiently compare rationals with
integers.
* Support for Darwin in all x86 code, thereby enabling fat builds on Darwin.
* Support for more 32-bit arm processors.
* Support for compilation with clang/llvm on more platforms. Caution: GMP
triggers mis-compilation bugs in clang for many platforms, such as arm, x86
(32-bit and 64-bit), powerpc, mips.
* Support for AVX-less modern x86 CPUs. (Such support might be missing either
because the CPU vendor chose to disable AVX, or because the running kernel
lacks AVX context switch support.)
* Stack usage trimmed; we believe 512 KiB is now sufficient for any GMP
call, irrespective of operand size.
* Support for NetBSD under Xen; we switch off AVX unconditionally under
NetBSD since a bug in NetBSD makes AVX fail under Xen.
MISC
* We now use manufacturers' code names for x86 CPUs, e.g., "haswell" instead
of names derived from the commercial brands.
* Small improvements and better coverage for the test suite.
* The various FreeBSD problems listed for 6.0.0 affect this release too.
* Tuned values for FFT multiplications are provided for larger number on
many platforms.

transformed compiler flags when built through pkgsrc because
config.guess overrides are in effect. Fixes build with cwrappers on i386.
Also add a comment that we should enable the runtime CPU detection support
on amd64 some time in the future.
hgnested is a Mercurial extension to work with nested repositories.
It was inspired by the forest extension.
The extension allows to apply common Mercurial commands to all the nested
repositories at once like pull, push etc. It also allows to fetch a complete
tree of repositories through ssh or http.
To enable the "hgnested" extension, create an entry for it in your hgrc, like
this:

Changes between 6.0.0 and 6.0.0a:
Not documented.
Changes between GMP version 5.1.* and 6.0.0
BUGS FIXED
* The function mpz_invert now considers any number invertible in Z/1Z.
* The mpn multiply code now handles operands of more than 2^31 limbs
correctly. (Note however that the mpz code is limited to 2^32 bits on
32-bit hosts and 2^37 bits on 64-bit hosts.)
* Contains all fixes from release 5.1.3.
SPEEDUPS
* Plain division of large operands is faster and more monotonous in operand
size.
* Major speedup for ARM, in particular ARM Cortex-A15, thanks to improved
assembly.
* Major speedup for SPARC T4/T5 and speedup also for T3, thanks to a lot of
new assembly.
* Speedup for Intel Sandy Bridge, Ivy Bridge, Haswell, thanks to rewritten
and vastly expanded assembly support. Speedup also for the older Core 2
and Nehalem.
* Faster mixed arithmetic between mpq_class and double.
* With g++, optimise more operations when one argument is a simple constant.
FEATURES
* Support for new Intel and AMD CPUs.
* Support for ARM64 alias Aarch64 alias ARMv8.
* New public functions mpn_sec_mul and mpn_sec_sqr, implementing side-channel
silent multiplication and squaring.
* New public functions mpn_sec_div_qr and mpn_sec_div_r, implementing
side-channel silent division.
* New public functions mpn_cnd_add_n and mpn_cnd_sub_n. Side-channel silent
conditional addition and subtraction.
* New public function mpn_sec_powm, implementing side-channel silent modexp.
* New public function mpn_sec_invert, implementing side-channel silent
modular inversion.
* Better support for applications which use the mpz_t type, but nevertheless
need to call some of the lower-level mpn functions. See the documentation
for mpz_limbs_read and related functions.
MISC
[FreeBSD bashing removed]
BUGS FIXED
* The internal functions mpn_sbpi1_div_qr_sec mpn_sbpi1_div_r_sec could
compute garbage with a low probability. They are now rewritten, and the
test code has been improved.
* A bug in the ia64 implementation of mpn_divrem_2, clobbering some
callee-save registers, has been fixed. This is an internal
function, with the bug manifesting itself as miscomputation in,
e.g., mpn_sqrtrem.
* The documentation now correctly says 'const' for input arguments.
Changes between GMP version 5.1.1 and 5.1.2
BUGS FIXED
* A bug in mpz_powm_ui triggered by base arguments of at least 15000 decimal
digits or mod arguments of at least 7500 decimal digits has been fixed.
* A AMD Bulldozer specific bug affecting the 64-bit Windows ABI has been
fixed. This bug was in a key function (mpn_mul_1) and made both Bulldozer
specific builds and fat builds run on Bulldozer completely non-functional.
MISC
* Fixes and generalisations to the test suite.
* Minor portability enhancements.
BUGS FIXED
On Windows 64-bit, an error causing link errors about __gmp_binvert_limb_table has been fixed.
Aarch64 alias ARM64 support now works.
A possible buffer overrun in mpz_ior has been fixed.
A rare sign flip in mpz_remove has been fixed.
A bug causing problems with mpf numbers with absolute value ≥ 231 has been fixed.
Several bugs in mini-gmp have been fixed.
A bug caused by automake, related to the 'distcheck' target, has been fixed by upgrading the automake used for GMP release engineering.
FEATURES
Preliminary support for the x32 ABI under x86-64.
MISC
The mini-gmp testsuite now tests the entire set of functions.
Various improvements of the GMP testsuite.
BUGS FIXED
* When reading a C++ number (like mpz_class) in an istream reaches the end
of the stream, the eofbit is now set.
* The result sign of mpz_rootrem's remainder is now always correct.
* The mpz_remove function now handles negative divisors.
* Contains all fixes from release 5.0.5.
SPEEDUPS
* The n-factorial and n-over-k functions have been reimplemented for great
speedups for small and large operands.
* New subquadratic algorithm for the Kronecker/Jacobi/Legendre symbol.
* Major speedup for ARM, in particular ARM Cortex-A9 and A15, thanks to broad
assembly support.
* Significant speedup or POWER6 and POWER7 thanks to improved assembly.
* The performance under M$ Windows' 64-bit ABI has been greatly improved
thanks to complete assembly support.
* Minor speed improvements of many functions and for many platforms.
FEATURES
* Many new CPUs recognised.
* New functions for multi-factorials, and primorial: mpz_2fac_ui,
mpz_mfac_uiui and mpz_primorial_ui.
* The mpz_powm_sec function now uses side-channel silent division for
converting into Montgomery residues.
* The fat binary mechanism is now more robust in its CPU recognition.
MISC
* Inclusion of assembly code is now controlled by the configure options
--enable-assembly and --disable-assembly. The "none" CPU targets is gone.
* In C++, the conversions mpq_class->mpz_class, mpf_class->mpz_class and
mpf_class->mpq_class are now explicit.
* Includes "mini-gmp", a small, portable, but less efficient, implementation
of a subset of GMP's mpn and mpz interfaces. Used in GMP bootstrap, but it
can also be bundled with applications as a fallback when the real GMP
library is unavailable.
* The ABIs under AIX are no longer called aix32 and aix64, but mode64 and 32.
This is more consistent with other powerpc systems.
* The coverage of the testsuite has been improved, using the lcov tool. See
also http://gmplib.org/devel/lcov/.
* It is now possible to compile GMP using a C++ compiler.
* K&R C compilers are no longer supported.
* The BSD MP compatibility functions have been removed.
Changes between GMP version 5.0.1 and 5.0.2
BUGS FIXED
* Many minor bugs related to portability fixed.
* The support for HPPA 2.0N now works, after an assembly bug fix.
* A test case type error has been fixed. The symptom of this bug
was spurious 'make check' failures.
SPEEDUPS
* None, except indirectly through recognition of new CPUs.
FEATURES
* Fat builds are now supported for 64-bit x86 processors also under Darwin.
MISC
* None.
Unfortunately, with recent gcc, the x86 version of mpn fails to build on
Solaris. Add it to Darwin on the list of platforms for which we build a
generic mpn instead.
