v1.9.3 (Aug 10, 2018)
|
|
|
|
|
I (Jirka Hladky) took over haveged upstream development and moved it to GiHub
|
|
|
|
|
https://github.com/jirka-h/haveged
|
|
|
|
|
This version implements a command mode and use it for chroot -it was
|
|
|
|
|
contributed by Dr. Werner Fink.

v1.9.2 (Nov 16, 2017)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This release cleans up issues that have accumulated since the last release. I retired
|
|
|
|
|
several years ago, and haveged is no longer under active development. This release only
|
|
|
|
|
attempts to collect and document the downstream reports I have received.

v1.9.1 (Feb 11, 2014)
|
|
|
|
|
Documentation and sample file touch-up for v1.9.
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
v1.9 (Feb 10, 2014)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A Fedora bugzilla request was received to harden the haveged build. Since haveged has
|
|
|
|
|
traditionally been fussy with compiler options, Jirka Hladky set up a large scale test
|
|
|
|
|
using using TestU01's BigCrush and PractRand. A normally harmless bug inadvertently sent
|
|
|
|
|
the 8TB data sets through the haveged run-time continuous test. This accident revealed
|
|
|
|
|
many problems with the run-time test implementation, including incorrect test defaults
|
|
|
|
|
based on app/daemon selection, broken dead man limit in test procedure B, broken retry
|
|
|
|
|
logic, and implementation bugs in both test procedure A and B. Attempting to diagnose
|
|
|
|
|
these problems also revealed the injection feature of the diagnostic build was also
|
|
|
|
|
broken.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Once the injection facility was fixed, an independent implementation of the AIS reference
|
|
|
|
|
for procedure B was used to verify the haveged implementation down to bit level. Portions
|
|
|
|
|
of the run-time test suite were rewritten to correct defects and improve performance of the
|
|
|
|
|
run-time test suite in PIE builds. The procedure A tests were rewritten to remove the need
|
|
|
|
|
to overlap the previous test to attain byte alignment - all test procedures are now bit
|
|
|
|
|
oriented. Unrelated changes included in the release include adding a quick version check
|
|
|
|
|
for libhavege use, many small improvements to diagnostics, and more cleanup man pages,
|
|
|
|
|
sample files, and other documentation.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Special thanks to Jirka Hladky for help in sorting out the procedure B bugs, verifying
|
|
|
|
|
the haveged RNG is statistically comparable to RDRAND, and the first formal testing of
|
|
|
|
|
haveged on ARM.

v1.8 (Jan 02, 2014)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Fix return code for signaled termination. Update init.d/service.fedora to use new
|
|
|
|
|
return code and simple service type. Add --enable_unitdir as DESTDIR for systemd
|
|
|
|
|
install. Cleanup documentation and man file.

v1.7c (Jun 08, 2013)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Additional fix for run-time test alignment problems on mips.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
v1.7b (Jun 06, 2013)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Fix run-time test alignment problems on sparc and mips. Fix ppc detection in build.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
v1.7a (Feb 13, 2013)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Fix broken parallel builds - fix LDADD problem in build, VPATH problems in check targets.
|
|
|
|
|
Move to check-local for check target to work with automake v1.13 but retain backward
|
|
|
|
|
compatibility. Modify build to make tuning component optional in build. Improve sample
|
|
|
|
|
spec file and docs.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
v1.7 (Jan 15, 2013)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The build has been restructured to provide a devel package. This introduces a new libtool
|
|
|
|
|
dependency. The new contrib/build/build.sh script is intended to toggle this requirement
|
|
|
|
|
as well as providing a bootstrap to recover from automake mismatches. The script will also
|
|
|
|
|
build and run devel sample code for those interested in using the devel package.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Other build related changes include updating AC_PREQ to a more reasonable, 2.59 and changing
|
|
|
|
|
the build option for init scripts to default to --enable-init=none. The format of the
|
|
|
|
|
haveged diagnostic display has changed to provided more information and the output is now
|
|
|
|
|
displayed after output is generated in the non-daemon case.
