| Changes from version 1.6.43 to version 1.6.44 |
| --------------------------------------------- |
| |
| * Hardened calculations in chroma handling to prevent overflows, and |
| relaxed a constraint in cHRM validation to accomodate the standard |
| ACES AP1 set of color primaries. |
| (Contributed by John Bowler) |
| * Removed the ASM implementation of ARM Neon optimizations and updated |
| the build accordingly. Only the remaining C implementation shall be |
| used from now on, thus ensuring the support of the PAC/BTI security |
| features on ARM64. |
| (Contributed by Ross Burton and John Bowler) |
| * Fixed the pickup of the PNG_HARDWARE_OPTIMIZATIONS option in the |
| CMake build on FreeBSD/amd64. This is an important performance fix |
| on this platform. |
| * Applied various fixes and improvements to the CMake build. |
| (Contributed by Eric Riff, Benjamin Buch and Erik Scholz) |
| * Added fuzzing targets for the simplified read API. |
| (Contributed by Mikhail Khachayants) |
| * Fixed a build error involving pngtest.c under a custom config. |
| This was a regression introduced in a code cleanup in libpng-1.6.43. |
| (Contributed by Ben Wagner) |
| * Fixed and improved the config files for AppVeyor CI and Travis CI. |
