NEWS for the Nettle 3.1.1 release
This release fixes a couple of non-critical bugs.
Bug fixes:
* By accident, nettle-3.1 disabled the assembly code for the
secp_224r1 and secp_521r1 elliptic curves on all x86_64
configurations, making signature operations on those curves
10%-30% slower. This code is now re-enabled.
* The x86_64 assembly implementation of gcm hashing has been
fixed to work with the Sun/Oracle assembler.
The shared library names are libnettle.so.6.1 and
libhogweed.so.4.1, with sonames still libnettle.so.6 and
libhogweed.so.4. It is intended to be fully binary compatible
with nettle-3.1.
NEWS for the Nettle 3.1 release
This release adds a couple of new features.
The library is mostly source-level compatible with nettle-3.0.
It is however not binary compatible, due to the introduction
of versioned symbols, and extensions to the base64 context
structs. The shared library names are libnettle.so.6.0 and
libhogweed.so.4.0, with sonames libnettle.so.6 and
libhogweed.so.4.
Bug fixes:
* Fixed a missing include of <limits.h>, which made the
camellia implementation fail on all 64-bit non-x86
platforms.
* Eliminate out-of-bounds reads in the C implementation of
memxor (related to valgrind's --partial-loads-ok flag).
Interface changes:
* Declarations of many internal functions are moved from ecc.h
to ecc-internal.h. The functions are undocumented, and
luckily they're apparently also unused by applications, so I
don't expect any problems from this change.
New features:
* Support for curve25519 and for EdDSA25519 signatures.
* Support for "fat builds" on x86_64 and arm, where the
implementation of certain functions is selected at run-time
depending on available cpu features. Configure with
--enable-fat to try this out. If it turns out to work well
enough, it will likely be enabled by default in later
releases.
* Support for building the hogweed library (public key
support) using "mini-gmp", a small but slower implementation
of a subset of the GMP interfaces. Note that builds using
mini-gmp are *not* binary compatible with regular builds,
and more likely to leak side-channel information.
One intended use-case is for small embedded applications
which need to verify digital signatures.
* The shared libraries are now built with versioned symbols.
Should reduce problems in case a program links explicitly to
nettle and/or hogweed, and to gnutls, and the program and
gnutls expect different versions.
* Support for "URL-safe" base64 encoding and decoding, as
specified in RFC 4648. Contributed by Amos Jeffries.
Optimizations:
* New x86_64 implementation of AES, using the "aesni"
instructions. Autodetected in fat builds. In non-fat builds,
it has to be enabled explicitly with --enable-x86-aesni.
Build system:
* Use the same object files for both static and shared
libraries. This eliminates the *.po object files which were
confusing to some tools (as well as humans). Like before,
PIC code is used by default; to build a non-pic static
library, configure with --disable-pic --disable-shared.
Miscellaneous:
* Made type-checking hack in CBC_ENCRYPT and similar macros
stricter, to generate warnings if they are used with
functions which have a length argument smaller than size_t.
