@@ -5,6 +5,14 @@ Please send bug reports, questions and suggestions to Version 4.4.13 * libxcrypt now builds (including working tests) on Mac OSX. +* Speed up ka-sunmd5 by skipping most of the test phrases. + ka-sunmd5 is slower than the entire rest of the testsuite put + together, because the sunmd5 hash is Just That Slow and we have to do + extra tests for it to ensure bug-compatibility. No easy optimizations + are possible and the difficult optimizations are not worth the + engineering effort for this obsolete hash. Instead, skip most of the + test phrases. See comments in test/ka-table-gen.py!h_sunmd5 for + further explanation. Version 4.4.12 * Another fix for GCC v10.x, which occurs on s390 architectures only. |
