DSA domain parameters may be given as well. + + +Noteworthy changes in version 1.4.3 (2008-09-18) +------------------------------------------------ + + * Try to auto-initialize Libgcrypt to minimize the effect of + applications not doing that correctly. This is not a perfect + solution but given that many applicationion would totally fail + without such a hack, we try to help at least with the most common + cases. Folks, please read the manual to learn how to properly + initialize Libgcrypt! + + * Auto-initialize the secure memory to 32k instead of aborting the + process. + + * Log fatal errors via syslog. + + * Changed the name and the semantics of the fips mode config file. + + * Add convenience macro gcry_fips_mode_active. + + * More self-tests. + + * Documentation cleanups. + + +Noteworthy changes in version 1.4.2 (2008-09-08) +------------------------------------------------ + + * The long missing gcry_mpi_lshift function has been added. + + * RSA key generation now supports a "transient-key" flag. + + * The keygrip computation for ECDSA has been implemented thus ECDSA + is now fully supported. + + * A few macros have been replaced by functions for better type + checking. + + * The thread initialization structure now carries version + information. + + * The manual describes more clearly how to initialize Libgcrypt. + + * The library may now be switched into a FIPS mode. + + * Interface changes relative to the 1.3.0 release: + ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + GCRYCTL_OPERATIONAL_P NEW. + GCRYCTL_FIPS_MODE_P NEW. + GCRYCTL_FORCE_FIPS_MODE NEW. + gcry_cipher_setkey NEW: Replaces macro. + gcry_cipher_setiv NEW: Replaces macro. + gcry_cipher_setctr NEW: Replaces macro. + gcry_mpi_lshift NEW. + ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + + +Noteworthy changes in version 1.4.1 (2008-04-25) +------------------------------------------------ + + * Fixed a bug introduced by 1.3.1 which led to the comsumption of far + too much entropy for the intial seeding. + + * Improved AES performance for CFB and CBC modes. + + * Removed build problems for the Padlock support. + + +Noteworthy changes in version 1.4.0 (2007-12-10) +------------------------------------------------ + + * New configure option --disable-padlock-support which is mostly + useful in case of build problems. + + +Noteworthy changes in version 1.3.2 (2007-12-03) +------------------------------------------------ + + * The visibility attribute is now used if supported by the toolchain. + + * The ACE engine of VIA processors is now used for AES-128. + + * The ASN.1 DER template for SHA-224 has been fixed. + + +Noteworthy changes in version 1.3.1 (2007-10-26) +------------------------------------------------ + + * The entire library is now under the LGPL. The helper programs and + the manual are under the GPL. Kudos to Peter Gutmann for giving + permissions to relicense the rndw32 and rndunix modules. + + * The Camellia cipher is now under the LGPL and included by default. + + * Fixed a bug in the detection of symbol prefixes which inhibited the + build of optimzied assembler code on certain systems. + + * Updated the entropy gatherer for W32. + + +Noteworthy changes in version 1.3.0 (2007-05-04) +------------------------------------------------ + + * Changed the way the RNG gets initialized. This allows to keep it + uninitialized as long as no random numbers are used. To override + this, the new macro gcry_fast_random_poll may be used. It is in + general a good idea to spread this macro into the application code + to make sure that these polls happen often enough. + + * Made the RNG immune against fork without exec. + + * Reading and writing the random seed file is now protected by a + fcntl style file lock on systems that provide this function. + + * Support for SHA-224 and HMAC using SHA-384 and SHA-512. + + * Support for the SEED cipher. + + * Support for the Camellia cipher. Note that Camellia is disabled by + default, and that enabling it changes the license of libgcrypt from + LGPL to GPL. + + * Support for OFB encryption mode. + + * gcry_mpi_rshift does not anymore truncate the shift count. + + * Reserved algorithm ranges for use by applications. + + * Support for DSA2. + + * The new function gcry_md_debug should be used instead of the + gcry_md_start_debug and gcry_md_stop_debug macros. + + * New configure option --enable-random-daemon to support a system + wide random daemon. The daemon code is experimental and not yet + very well working. It will eventually allow to keep a global + random pool for the sake of short living processes. + + * Non executable stack support is now used by default on systems + supporting it. + + * Support for Microsoft Windows. + + * Assembler support for the AMD64 architecture. + + * New configure option --enable-mpi-path for optimized builds. + + * Experimental support for ECDSA; should only be used for testing. + + * New control code GCRYCTL_PRINT_CONFIG to print the build + configuration. + + * Minor changes to some function declarations. Buffer arguments are + now typed as void pointer.

We removed compile time support for thread libraries. + To support the thread library of your choice, you have to set up + callback handlers at initialization time. New data structures, a + new control command, and default initializers are provided for this + purpose. + + * Interface changes relative to the 1.1.93 release: +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ +libgcrypt-config --thread OBSOLETE +libgcrypt-pth.la REMOVED +libgcrypt-pthread.la REMOVED +GCRYCTL_SET_THREAD_CBS NEW +struct gcrypt_thread_cbs NEW +enum gcry_thread_option NEW +GCRY_THREAD_OPTION_PTH_IMPL NEW +GCRY_THREAD_OPTION_PTHREAD_IMPL NEW +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +Noteworthy changes in version 1.1.93 (2004-03-06) +------------------------------------------------- + + * The automatic thread library detection has finally been removed. + From now on, only linking explicitely to libgcrypt, libgcrypt-pth + or libgcrypt-pthread is supported. + +Noteworthy changes in version 1.1.92 (2004-02-20) +------------------------------------------------- + + * Minor bug fixes. + + * Included a limited implementation of RFC2268. + + * Changed API of the gcry_ac_ functions. Only a very few programs + should be affected by this. + + * Interface changes relative to the 1.1.91 release: +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ +GCRY_CIPHER_RFC2268_40 NEW. +gcry_ac_data_set CHANGED: New argument FLAGS. +gcry_ac_data_get_name CHANGED: New argument FLAGS. +gcry_ac_data_get_index CHANGED: New argument FLAGS. +gcry_ac_key_pair_generate CHANGED: New and reordered arguments. +gcry_ac_key_test CHANGED: New argument HANDLE. +gcry_ac_key_get_nbits CHANGED: New argument HANDLE. +gcry_ac_key_get_grip CHANGED: New argument HANDLE. +gcry_ac_data_search REMOVED. +gcry_ac_data_add REMOVED. +GCRY_AC_DATA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING REMOVED. +GCRY_AC_FLAG_NO_BLINDING NEW: Replaces above. + + +Noteworthy changes in version 1.1.91 (2003-12-19) +------------------------------------------------- + + * Code cleanups and minor bug fixes. + + +Noteworthy changes in version 1.1.90 (2003-11-14) +------------------------------------------------- + + * The use of the GCRY_WEAK_RANDOM level is now deprecated in favor of + the new gcry_create_nonce function. + + * gcry_sexp_build now supports a "%b" format to include a memory buffer. + + * Minor configuration fixes. + + * Interface changes relative to the 1.1.44 release: +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ +gcry_create_nonce NEW +gcry_sexp_build ENHANCED + + +Noteworthy changes in version 1.1.44 (2003-10-31) +------------------------------------------------- + + * Bug fixes and more code cleanups. + + * Enhanced the prime API. + + * Interface changes relative to the 1.1.43 release: +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ +gcry_prime_group_generator NEW +gcry_prime_release_factors NEW + + +Noteworthy changes in version 1.1.43 (2003-09-04) +------------------------------------------------- + + * Bug fixes and internal code cleanups. + + * Support for the Serpent cipher algorithm. + + * Interface changes relative to the 1.1.42 release: +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ +gcry_prime_generate NEW +gcry_prime_check NEW + + +Noteworthy changes in version 1.1.42 (2003-07-31) +------------------------------------------------- + + * Major API cleanup. Applications need to be converted to the new + API. See README.apichanges for hints on how to do that. Backward + compatibility is provided where it was possible without too much + effort and did not collide with the overall sanitization effort. + However, this is only for ease of transition. NO DEPRECATED + FUNCTION OR DATA TYPE IS CONSIDERED A PART OF THE API OR ABI AND + WILL BE DROPPED IN THE FUTURE WITHOUT CHANGING THE SONAME OF THE + LIBRARY. + + * If gcrypt.h is included in sources compiled by GCC 3.1 or later, + deprecated attributes will warn about use of obsolete functions and + type definitions. You can suppress these warnings by passing + -Wno-deprecated-declarations to the gcc command. + + * gcry_check_version must be called from now on to initialize the + library, it is not longer optional. + + * Removed `libgcrypt errno' concept. + + * Libgcrypt depends on libgpg-error, a library that provides error + codes and according functions for all GnuPG components. Functions + that used to return error codes asa `int' have been changed to + return a code of type `gcry_error_t'. All GCRYERR_* error symbols + have been removed, since they are now contained in libgpg-error + (GPG_ERR_*). All functions and types in libgpg-error have also been + wrapped in Libgcrypt. The new types are gcry_err_code_t and + gcry_err_source_t. The new functions are gcry_err_code, + gcry_err_source, gcry_error, gcry_err_make, gcry_error_from_errno, + gcry_err_make_from_errno, gcry_err_code_from_errno, + gcry_err_code_to_errno, gcry_strsource. + + * New function gcry_mpi_dump to help in debugging. + + * Added alternative interface for asymmetric cryptography. + + * CRC-32, CRC-32 a'la RFC 1510, CRC-24 a'la RFC 2440 are now + supported. + + * SHA-256, SHA-384 and SHA-512 are now supported. + + * 128 bit Twofish is now supported. + + * The random module won't print the "not enough random bytes + available" anymore. A new progress status is issued instead. + + * CBC-MAC for block ciphers is now supported, by using a + GCRY_CIPHER_CBC_MAC cipher flag. + + * CTR mode for block ciphers is now supported. + + * The public RSA exponent can now be specified in key generation. + + * RSA blinding is now supported and is used automatically for RSA + decryption. It can be explicitely disabled by using the + `no-blinding' symbol in the `flags' S-Expression or by using the + GCRY_AC_FLAG_DATA_NO_BLINDING flag when using the ac interface. + + * gcry_sexp_canon_len does not use a `historically encoded' error + code anymore. + + + * Interface changes relative to the 1.1.12 release: +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ +GCRY_MPI DEPRECATED; Use: gcry_mpi_t +GcryMPI DEPRECATED; Use: gcry_mpi_t +GCRY_SEXP DEPRECATED; Use: gcry_sexp_t +GcrySexp DEPRECATED; Use: gcry_sexp_t +GCRY_CIPHER_HD DEPRECATED; Use: gcry_cipher_hd_t +GcryCipherHd DEPRECATED; Use: gcry_cipher_hd_t +GCRY_MD_HD DEPRECATED; Use: gcry_md_hd_t +GcryMDHd DEPRECATED; Use: gcry_md_hd_t +gcry_error_t NEW +gcry_err_code_t NEW +gcry_err_source_t NEW +gcry_err_make NEW +gcry_error NEW +gcry_err_code NEW +gcry_err_source NEW +gcry_err_code_from_errno NEW +gcry_err_code_to_errno NEW +gcry_err_make_from_errno NEW +gcry_error_from_errno NEW +gcry_strsource NEW +GCRYERR_{some error code} REMOVED; Use GPG_ERR_* + from libgpg-error instead. +gcry_errno REMOVED +gcry_sexp_canon_len CHANGED +gcry_sexp_build_array NEW +gcry_mpi_scan CHANGED: New argument to separate in/out args. +gcry_mpi_print CHANGED: Ditto. +gcry_mpi_dump NEW +gcry_cipher_open CHANGED +gcry_cipher_reset NEW +gcry_cipher_register NEW +gcry_cipher_unregister NEW +gcry_cipher_list NEW +gcry_cipher_algo_keylen REPLACED macro with function. +gcry_cipher_algo_blklen REPLACED macro with function. +gcry_pk_register NEW +gcry_pk_unregister NEW +gcry_pk_list NEW +gcry_pk_decrypt ENHANCED: Allows flag to return + complete S-expression. +gcry_md_open CHANGED +gcry_md_copy CHANGED +gcry_md_is_enabled NEW +gcry_md_is_secure NEW +gcry_md_register NEW +gcry_md_unregister NEW +gcry_md_list NEW +gcry_ac_data_t NEW +gcry_ac_key_t NEW +gcry_ac_key_pair_t NEW +gcry_ac_handle_t NEW +gcry_ac_key_spec_rsa_t NEW +gcry_ac_data_new NEW +gcry_ac_data_destroy NEW +gcry_ac_data_set NEW +gcry_ac_data_copy NEW +gcry_ac_data_length NEW +gcry_ac_data_get_name NEW +gcry_ac_data_get_index NEW +gcry_ac_data_clear NEW +gcry_ac_open NEW +gcry_ac_close NEW +gcry_ac_key_init NEW +gcry_ac_key_pair_generate NEW +gcry_ac_key_pair_extract NEW +gcry_ac_key_data_get NEW +gcry_ac_key_test NEW +gcry_ac_key_get_nbits NEW +gcry_ac_key_get_grip NEW +gcry_ac_key_destroy NEW +gcry_ac_key_pair_destroy NEW +gcry_ac_data_encrypt NEW +gcry_ac_data_decrypt NEW +gcry_ac_data_sign NEW +gcry_ac_data_verify NEW +gcry_ac_id_to_name NEW +gcry_ac_name_to_id NEW +gcry_handler_progress_t NEW +gcry_handler_alloc_t NEW +gcry_handler_secure_check_t NEW +gcry_handle_realloc_t NEW +gcry_handler_free_t NEW +gcry_handler_no_mem_t NEW +gcry_handler_error_t NEW +gcry_handler_log_t NEW +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +Noteworthy changes in version 1.1.12 (2003-01-20) +------------------------------------------------- + + * gcry_pk_sign, gcry_pk_verify and gcry_pk_encrypt can now handle an + optional pkcs1 flags parameter in the S-expression.
