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.
