Version 1.11.14, Not Yet Released
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
* OCB mode, which provides a fast and constant time AEAD mode without
requiring hardware support, is now supported in TLS, following
draft-zauner-tls-aes-ocb-01. Because this specification is not yet
finalized is not yet enabled by the default policy, and the
ciphersuite numbers used are in the experimental range and may
conflict with other uses.
* The memory allocator available on Unix systems which uses mmap and
mlock to lock a pool of memory now checks an environment variable
BOTAN_MLOCK_POOL_SIZE. If this is set to a smaller value then the
library would originally have allocated the user specified size is
used. You can also set it to zero to disable the pool entirely.
Previously the allocator would consume all available mlocked memory,
this allows botan to coexist with an application which wants to
mlock memory of its own.
* The library can now only be initialized once. If the library is
already initialized and a LibraryInitializer is created, it has no
effect. If the first library initializer leaves scope then a new
initializer can be created.
LibraryInitializer can now only be used in an RAII fashion; the
static `initialize` and `deinitialize` functions have been removed.
