* Version 1.0.12
- New constants and related accessors have been added for Scrypt and
Argon2.
- XChaCha20 has been implemented. Like XSalsa20, this construction
extends the ChaCha20 cipher to accept a 192-bit nonce. This makes it safe
to use ChaCha20 with random nonces.
- `crypto_secretbox`, `crypto_box` and `crypto_aead` now offer
variants leveraging XChaCha20.
- SHA-2 is about 20% faster, which also gives a speed boost to
signature and signature verification.
- AVX2 implementations of Salsa20 and ChaCha20 have been added. They
are twice as fast as the SSE2 implementations. The speed gain is
even more significant on Windows, that previously didn't use
vectorized implementations.
- New high-level API: `crypto_kdf`, to easily derive one or more
sukeys from a master key.
- Siphash with a 128-bit output has been implemented, and is
available as `crypto_shorthash_siphashx_*`.
- New `*_keygen()` helpers functions have been added to create secret
keys for all constructions. This improves code clarity and can prevent keys
from being partially initialized.
- A new `randombytes_buf_deterministic()` function was added to
deterministically fill a memory region with pseudorandom data. This
function can especially be useful to write reproducible tests.
- AVX2 detection is more reliable.
- The pthreads library is not required any more when using MingW.
- `contrib/Findsodium.cmake` was added as an example to include
libsodium in a project using cmake.
- Compatibility with gcc 2.x has been restored.
* Version 1.0.11
- sodium_init() is now thread-safe, and can be safely called multiple
- `sodium_init()` is now thread-safe, and can be safely called multiple
times.
- Android binaries now properly support 64-bit Android, targeting
platform 24, but without breaking compatibility with platforms 16 and
