CHANGELOG (2000B)
1 v0.7.3 2 - perf: improved speed for large inputs (~+20%) 3 - perf: improved latency for small inputs (~10%) 4 - perf: s390x Vectorial code, by @easyaspi314 5 - cli: improved support for Unicode filenames on Windows, thanks to @easyaspi314 and @t-mat 6 - api: `xxhash.h` can now be included in any order, with and without `XXH_STATIC_LINKING_ONLY` and `XXH_INLINE_ALL` 7 - build: xxHash's implementation transferred into `xxhash.h`. No more need to have `xxhash.c` in the `/include` directory for `XXH_INLINE_ALL` to work 8 - install: created pkg-config file, by @bket 9 - install: VCpkg installation instructions, by @LilyWangL 10 - doc: Highly improved code documentation, by @easyaspi314 11 - misc: New test tool in `/tests/collisions`: brute force collision tester for 64-bit hashes 12 13 v0.7.2 14 - Fixed collision ratio of `XXH128` for some specific input lengths, reported by @svpv 15 - Improved `VSX` and `NEON` variants, by @easyaspi314 16 - Improved performance of scalar code path (`XXH_VECTOR=0`), by @easyaspi314 17 - `xxhsum`: can generate 128-bit hashes with the `-H2` option (note: for experimental purposes only! `XXH128` is not yet frozen) 18 - `xxhsum`: option `-q` removes status notifications 19 20 v0.7.1 21 - Secret first: the algorithm computation can be altered by providing a "secret", which is any blob of bytes, of size >= `XXH3_SECRET_SIZE_MIN`. 22 - `seed` is still available, and acts as a secret generator 23 - updated `ARM NEON` variant by @easyaspi314 24 - Streaming implementation is available 25 - Improve compatibility and performance with Visual Studio, with help from @aras-p 26 - Better integration when using `XXH_INLINE_ALL`: do not pollute host namespace, use its own macros, such as `XXH_ASSERT()`, `XXH_ALIGN`, etc. 27 - 128-bit variant provides helper functions for comparison of hashes. 28 - Better `clang` generation of `rotl` instruction, thanks to @easyaspi314 29 - `XXH_REROLL` build macro to reduce binary size, by @easyaspi314 30 - Improved `cmake` script, by @Mezozoysky 31 - Full benchmark program provided in `/tests/bench`
