Hi scrypt users, I've just uploaded a tarball which may be (modulo version number update) release 1.3.2 of the scrypt file encryption utility and key derivation function library. Notable changes since 1.3.1: * A strict-aliasing violation in non-SSE2 code (aka for non-x86 systems and very very ancient x86 systems) is fixed; with gcc 11 and later, this was causing a self-test failure. * Runtime POSIX-violation checks are disabled when cross-compiling. * Slightly improved performance on many x86 and ARM systems due to using cryptographic CPU instructions (the scrypt key derivation itself isn't affected, only the file encryption/decryption). * Build fixes for OpenBSD and autoconf 2.70. You can download the scrypt code at https://www.tarsnap.com/scrypt/scrypt-1.3.1.99.tgz and the tarball has SHA256 hash e1d8cdc02808dd9875c3d53053b83080282b6dad879b8069d46fb28caa0e15d3 . You can also see the tree from which I rolled this almost-release at https://github.com/Tarsnap/scrypt if you find it useful to crawl through VCS history. Assuming nobody yells (or the yells are things I can fix quickly and easily) I'll roll the official scrypt 1.3.2 release some time around the end of September. -- Colin Percival FreeBSD Deputy Release Engineer & EC2 platform maintainer Founder, Tarsnap | www.tarsnap.com | Online backups for the truly paranoid
