1 Noteworthy changes in version 1.6.0 (unreleased)
2 ------------------------------------------------
4 * Removed the long deprecated gcry_ac interface. Thus Libgcrypt is
5 not anymore ABI compatible to previous versions if they used the ac
8 * Removed the module register subsystem.
10 * The deprecated message digest debug macros have been removed. Use
11 gcry_md_debug instead.
13 * Added support for the IDEA cipher algorithm.

111 * Uses the Intel AES-NI instructions if available.
113 * The use of the deprecated Alternative Public Key Interface
114 (gcry_ac_*) will now print compile time warnings.
116 * The module register subsystem has been deprecated. This subsystem
117 is not flexible enough and would always require ABI changes to
118 extend the internal interfaces. It will eventually be removed.
119 Please contact us on the gcrypt-devel mailing list to discuss
120 whether you really need this feature or how it can be replaced by
121 an internal plugin mechanism.
123 * CTR mode may now be used with data chunks of arbitrary length.

177 and DSA keys using the FIPS 186-2 algorithm.
179 * The transient-key flag is now also supported for DSA key
180 generation. DSA domain parameters may be given as well.
183 Noteworthy changes in version 1.4.3 (2008-09-18)
184 ------------------------------------------------
186 * Try to auto-initialize Libgcrypt to minimize the effect of
187 applications not doing that correctly. This is not a perfect
188 solution but given that many applicationion would totally fail
189 without such a hack, we try to help at least with the most common
190 cases. Folks, please read the manual to learn how to properly
191 initialize Libgcrypt!
193 * Auto-initialize the secure memory to 32k instead of aborting the
196 * Log fatal errors via syslog.
198 * Changed the name and the semantics of the fips mode config file.
200 * Add convenience macro gcry_fips_mode_active.
204 * Documentation cleanups.

214 * The keygrip computation for ECDSA has been implemented thus ECDSA
215 is now fully supported.
217 * A few macros have been replaced by functions for better type
220 * The thread initialization structure now carries version
223 * The manual describes more clearly how to initialize Libgcrypt.
225 * The library may now be switched into a FIPS mode.
227 * Interface changes relative to the 1.3.0 release:
228 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
229 GCRYCTL_OPERATIONAL_P NEW.
230 GCRYCTL_FIPS_MODE_P NEW.
231 GCRYCTL_FORCE_FIPS_MODE NEW.
232 gcry_cipher_setkey NEW: Replaces macro.
233 gcry_cipher_setiv NEW: Replaces macro.
234 gcry_cipher_setctr NEW: Replaces macro.
236 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
239 Noteworthy changes in version 1.4.1 (2008-04-25)
240 ------------------------------------------------
242 * Fixed a bug introduced by 1.3.1 which led to the comsumption of far
243 too much entropy for the intial seeding.
245 * Improved AES performance for CFB and CBC modes.
247 * Removed build problems for the Padlock support.
250 Noteworthy changes in version 1.4.0 (2007-12-10)
251 ------------------------------------------------
253 * New configure option --disable-padlock-support which is mostly
254 useful in case of build problems.
257 Noteworthy changes in version 1.3.2 (2007-12-03)
258 ------------------------------------------------
260 * The visibility attribute is now used if supported by the toolchain.
262 * The ACE engine of VIA processors is now used for AES-128.
264 * The ASN.1 DER template for SHA-224 has been fixed.
267 Noteworthy changes in version 1.3.1 (2007-10-26)
268 ------------------------------------------------
270 * The entire library is now under the LGPL. The helper programs and
271 the manual are under the GPL. Kudos to Peter Gutmann for giving
272 permissions to relicense the rndw32 and rndunix modules.
274 * The Camellia cipher is now under the LGPL and included by default.
276 * Fixed a bug in the detection of symbol prefixes which inhibited the
277 build of optimzied assembler code on certain systems.
279 * Updated the entropy gatherer for W32.
282 Noteworthy changes in version 1.3.0 (2007-05-04)
283 ------------------------------------------------
285 * Changed the way the RNG gets initialized. This allows to keep it
286 uninitialized as long as no random numbers are used. To override
287 this, the new macro gcry_fast_random_poll may be used. It is in
288 general a good idea to spread this macro into the application code
289 to make sure that these polls happen often enough.
291 * Made the RNG immune against fork without exec.
293 * Reading and writing the random seed file is now protected by a
294 fcntl style file lock on systems that provide this function.
296 * Support for SHA-224 and HMAC using SHA-384 and SHA-512.
298 * Support for the SEED cipher.
300 * Support for the Camellia cipher. Note that Camellia is disabled by
301 default, and that enabling it changes the license of libgcrypt from
304 * Support for OFB encryption mode.
306 * gcry_mpi_rshift does not anymore truncate the shift count.
308 * Reserved algorithm ranges for use by applications.
312 * The new function gcry_md_debug should be used instead of the
313 gcry_md_start_debug and gcry_md_stop_debug macros.
315 * New configure option --enable-random-daemon to support a system
316 wide random daemon. The daemon code is experimental and not yet
317 very well working. It will eventually allow to keep a global
318 random pool for the sake of short living processes.
320 * Non executable stack support is now used by default on systems
323 * Support for Microsoft Windows.
325 * Assembler support for the AMD64 architecture.
327 * New configure option --enable-mpi-path for optimized builds.
329 * Experimental support for ECDSA; should only be used for testing.
331 * New control code GCRYCTL_PRINT_CONFIG to print the build
334 * Minor changes to some function declarations. Buffer arguments are
335 now typed as void pointer. This should not affect any compilation.
336 Fixed two bugs in return values and clarified documentation.

377 -------------------------------------------------
379 * The support for multi-threaded users goes into its third
380 incarnation. We removed compile time support for thread libraries.
381 To support the thread library of your choice, you have to set up
382 callback handlers at initialization time. New data structures, a

406 -------------------------------------------------
410 * Included a limited implementation of RFC2268.
412 * Changed API of the gcry_ac_ functions. Only a very few programs

434 * Code cleanups and minor bug fixes.
437 Noteworthy changes in version 1.1.90 (2003-11-14)
438 -------------------------------------------------
440 * The use of the GCRY_WEAK_RANDOM level is now deprecated in favor of
441 the new gcry_create_nonce function.
443 * gcry_sexp_build now supports a "%b" format to include a memory buffer.

474 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
475 gcry_prime_generate NEW
479 Noteworthy changes in version 1.1.42 (2003-07-31)
480 -------------------------------------------------
482 * Major API cleanup. Applications need to be converted to the new
483 API. See README.apichanges for hints on how to do that. Backward
484 compatibility is provided where it was possible without too much
485 effort and did not collide with the overall sanitization effort.
486 However, this is only for ease of transition. NO DEPRECATED
487 FUNCTION OR DATA TYPE IS CONSIDERED A PART OF THE API OR ABI AND
488 WILL BE DROPPED IN THE FUTURE WITHOUT CHANGING THE SONAME OF THE
491 * If gcrypt.h is included in sources compiled by GCC 3.1 or later,
492 deprecated attributes will warn about use of obsolete functions and
493 type definitions. You can suppress these warnings by passing
494 -Wno-deprecated-declarations to the gcc command.
496 * gcry_check_version must be called from now on to initialize the
497 library, it is not longer optional.
499 * Removed `libgcrypt errno' concept.
501 * Libgcrypt depends on libgpg-error, a library that provides error
502 codes and according functions for all GnuPG components. Functions
503 that used to return error codes asa `int' have been changed to
504 return a code of type `gcry_error_t'. All GCRYERR_* error symbols
505 have been removed, since they are now contained in libgpg-error
506 (GPG_ERR_*). All functions and types in libgpg-error have also been
507 wrapped in Libgcrypt. The new types are gcry_err_code_t and
508 gcry_err_source_t. The new functions are gcry_err_code,
509 gcry_err_source, gcry_error, gcry_err_make, gcry_error_from_errno,
510 gcry_err_make_from_errno, gcry_err_code_from_errno,
511 gcry_err_code_to_errno, gcry_strsource.
513 * New function gcry_mpi_dump to help in debugging.
515 * Added alternative interface for asymmetric cryptography.
517 * CRC-32, CRC-32 a'la RFC 1510, CRC-24 a'la RFC 2440 are now
520 * SHA-256, SHA-384 and SHA-512 are now supported.
522 * 128 bit Twofish is now supported.
524 * The random module won't print the "not enough random bytes
525 available" anymore. A new progress status is issued instead.
527 * CBC-MAC for block ciphers is now supported, by using a
528 GCRY_CIPHER_CBC_MAC cipher flag.
530 * CTR mode for block ciphers is now supported.
532 * The public RSA exponent can now be specified in key generation.
534 * RSA blinding is now supported and is used automatically for RSA
535 decryption. It can be explicitely disabled by using the
536 `no-blinding' symbol in the `flags' S-Expression or by using the
537 GCRY_AC_FLAG_DATA_NO_BLINDING flag when using the ac interface.
539 * gcry_sexp_canon_len does not use a `historically encoded' error
