Log Message:
Updated package to latest version, 1.11 (plus distribution change). Changes
include:
Release 1.11:
- Adapt to "safe string" mode (OCaml 4.02 and later required).
The API should remain backward-compatible for clients compiled
in "unsafe string" mode.
- Update SHA-3 to the official NIST standard (different padding than
in the Keccak submission). (Closes: #1528)
- Fixed bounds checking in "add_substring" methods of hash functions
and other functions that operate on a substring of a string.
(Closes: #1480)
- Use hardware implementation of AES when available on x86 processors.
(Faster than the software implementation and less sensitive to
side channel attacks.)
- Use the Zarith library to implement RSA.
(Faster than the previous implementation and less sensitive to
side channel attacks.)
- Support the hardware random number generator present in recent
x86 processors.
- Rebuilt generated files with Oasis 0.4.6 for OCaml 4.03 compatibility.
