version 1.5.5 Changes since 1.5.4: - `b3sum --check` now supports checkfiles with Windows-style newlines. `b3sum` still emits Unix-style newlines, even on Windows, but sometimes text editors or version control tools will swap them. - The "digest" feature (deleted in v1.5.2) has been added back to the `blake3` crate. This is for backwards compatibility only, and it's insta-deprecated. All callers should prefer the "traits-preview" feature.
version 1.5.4 Changes since 1.5.3: - Initial implementation of SIMD acceleration for the XOF (i.e. blake3::Hasher::finalize_xof). This brings long output performance into line with long input performance. Currently AVX-512-only and Unix-only. - Add build support for "gnullvm" targets (Clang on Windows). - The "zeroize" feature no longer depends on proc-macros and syn.
version 1.5.2 Changes since 1.5.1: - `build.rs` sets `cc::Build::emit_rerun_if_env_changed(false)` to prevent some unnecessary rebuilds, particularly when the `PATH` changes on Windows. See #324. - Serializing a `Hash` produces a bytestring instead of an array in formats that support bytestrings (like CBOR). Deserialization is backwards-compatible with the array format. - Cleanup and edge case fixes in the C and CMake builds.
version 1.5.1 Changes since 1.5.0: - The Rust crate is now compatible with Miri. - ~1% performance improvement on Arm NEON contributed by @divinity76 (#384). - Various fixes and improvements in the CMake build. - The MSRV of b3sum is now 1.74.1. (The MSRV of the library crate is unchanged, 1.66.1.)
version 1.5.0 Changes since 1.4.1: - The Rust crate's Hasher type has gained new helper methods for common forms of IO: update_reader, update_mmap, and update_mmap_rayon. The latter matches the default behavior of b3sum. The mmap methods are gated by the new "mmap" Cargo feature. - Most of the Rust crate's public types now implement the Zeroize trait. This is gated by the new "zeroize" Cargo feature. - The Rust crate's Hash types now implements the serde Serialize and Deserialize traits. This is gated by the new "serde" Cargo feature. - The C library now uses atomics to cache detected CPU features under most compilers other than MSVC. Previously this was a non-atomic write, which was probably "benign" but made TSan unhappy. - NEON support is now disabled by default on big-endian AArch64. Previously this was a build error if the caller didn't explicitly disable it.
version 1.4.1 Changes since 1.4.0: - Improved performance in the ARM NEON implementation for both C and Rust callers. This affects AArch64 targets by default and ARMv7 targets that explicitly enable (and support) NEON. The size of the improvement depends on the microarchitecture, but I've benchmarked ~1.3x on a Cortex-A53 and ~1.2x on an Apple M1. Contributed by @sdlyyxy in #319. - The MSRV is now 1.66.1 for both the `blake3` crate and `b3sum`.
version 1.4.0 Changes since 1.3.3: - The C implementation provides a `CMakeLists.txt` for callers who build with CMake. The CMake build is not yet stable, and callers should expect breaking changes in patch version updates. The "by hand" build will always continue to be supported and documented. - `b3sum` supports the `--seek` flag, to set the starting position in the output stream. - `b3sum --check` prints a summary of errors to stderr. - `Hash::as_bytes` is const. - `Hash` supports `from_bytes`, which is const.
