CityHash v1.1.1, June 17, 2013
* Fix CityHash32() so platforms that disagree about whether 'char' is signed
use the same mathematical function. For most people this changes nothing
as most popular platforms agree with x86 about whether 'char' is signed.
* No changes to any of the functions, unless you had been using CityHash32()
despite "make check" reporting a failure on your platform.
* Slightly modernize and improve configuration and portability.
CityHash v1.1, October 22, 2012
* Add CityHash32(), intended for 32-bit platforms.
* Change existing functions to improve their hash quality and/or speed. Most
of the changes were minor, but CityHashCrc* was substantially reworked
(and made perhaps 10% slower, unfortunately).
* Improve README.
CityHash v1.0.3, October 6, 2011
* Change all the functions to improve their hash quality. Most of the
changes were minor. Special thanks to Bob Jenkins for reporting some
issues that he'd found. The speed of the functions after these changes is
roughly unchanged, except that CityHash128() and CityHash128WithSeed() are
slower.
* To improve portability, replace the one use of ssize_t with signed long.
* Improve README.
CityHash v1.0.2, May 8, 2011
* Correct a problem in CityHashCrc256(); for inputs under 240 bytes the
scheme of padding to 240 bytes was causing the empty string and an input
of exactly 240 NULs to have the same hash code. That is now fixed.
Most strings less than 240 bytes long will have a different hash than
they did in v1.0.1.
* Other hash functions are unchanged.
* Minor corrections and improvements to README.
CityHash v1.0.1, April 28, 2011
* Added README, NEWS, and COPYING. The README contains installation and
usage instructions, information on "hash quality," and other goodies.
* Improved how CityHash128() and CityHash128WithSeed() handle very short
input strings.
* Added new functions that are faster on long strings on 64-bit CPUs with
a CRC32 instruction: CityHashCrc128(), CityHashCrc128WithSeed(), and
CityHashCrc256().
* Removed our assumption that "*(const uint64*)p" and such is safe. Now we
memcpy() instead. It has no speed penalty and makes our intent explicit
to the compiler.
* Changed #include "city.h" to #include <city.h>, suggested by Robert Escriva.
* Added build system, a modified version of one contributed by Robert Escriva.
* We now use __builtin_expect if the configure script can make it work, rather
than just on gcc.
* Added a test: use "make check" to run it. If you compile CityHash in a way
that causes it to return unexpected results, the test should fail.
* Added untested big-endian support. Please let us know if you try it!
* Other than CityHash128() and CityHash128WithSeed(), the hash functions in
the previous release are unchanged.
CityHash v1, April 11, 2011
* Initial release
