      1 1.3.1
      2 =====
      3 
      4 [1] On Un*x systems, 'make install' now installs the libjpeg-turbo libraries
      5 into /opt/libjpeg-turbo/lib32 by default on any 32-bit system, not just x86,
      6 and into /opt/libjpeg-turbo/lib64 by default on any 64-bit system, not just
      7 x86-64.  You can override this by overriding either the 'prefix' or 'libdir'
      8 configure variables.
      9 
     10 [2] The Windows installer now places a copy of the TurboJPEG DLLs in the same
     11 directory as the rest of the libjpeg-turbo binaries.  This was mainly done
     12 to support TurboVNC 1.3, which bundles the DLLs in its Windows installation.
     13 When using a 32-bit version of CMake on 64-bit Windows, it is impossible to
     14 access the c:\WINDOWS\system32 directory, which made it impossible for the
     15 TurboVNC build scripts to bundle the 64-bit TurboJPEG DLL.
     16 
     17 [3] Fixed a bug whereby attempting to encode a progressive JPEG with arithmetic
     18 entropy coding (by passing arguments of -progressive -arithmetic to cjpeg or
     19 jpegtran, for instance) would result in an error, "Requested feature was
     20 omitted at compile time".
     21 
     22 [4] Fixed a couple of issues whereby malformed JPEG images would cause
     23 libjpeg-turbo to use uninitialized memory during decompression.
     24 
     25 [5] Fixed an error ("Buffer passed to JPEG library is too small") that occurred
     26 when calling the TurboJPEG YUV encoding function with a very small (< 5x5)
     27 source image, and added a unit test to check for this error.
     28 
     29 [6] The Java classes should now build properly under Visual Studio 2010 and
     30 later.
     31 
     32 [7] Fixed an issue that prevented SRPMs generated using the in-tree packaging
     33 tools from being rebuilt on certain newer Linux distributions.
     34 
     35 [8] Numerous minor fixes to eliminate compilation and build/packaging system
     36 warnings, fix cosmetic issues, improve documentation clarity, and other general
     37 source cleanup.
     38 
     39 
     40 1.3.0
     41 =====
     42 
     43 [1] 'make test' now works properly on FreeBSD, and it no longer requires the
     44 md5sum executable to be present on other Un*x platforms.
     45 
     46 [2] Overhauled the packaging system:
     47 -- To avoid conflict with vendor-supplied libjpeg-turbo packages, the
     48 official RPMs and DEBs for libjpeg-turbo have been renamed to
     49 "libjpeg-turbo-official".
     50 -- The TurboJPEG libraries are now located under /opt/libjpeg-turbo in the
     51 official Linux and Mac packages, to avoid conflict with vendor-supplied
     52 packages and also to streamline the packaging system.
     53 -- Release packages are now created with the directory structure defined
     54 by the configure variables "prefix", "bindir", "libdir", etc. (Un*x) or by the
     55 CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX variable (Windows.)  The exception is that the docs are
     56 always located under the system default documentation directory on Un*x and Mac
     57 systems, and on Windows, the TurboJPEG DLL is always located in the Windows
     58 system directory.
     59 -- To avoid confusion, official libjpeg-turbo packages on Linux/Unix platforms
     60 (except for Mac) will always install the 32-bit libraries in
     61 /opt/libjpeg-turbo/lib32 and the 64-bit libraries in /opt/libjpeg-turbo/lib64.
     62 -- Fixed an issue whereby, in some cases, the libjpeg-turbo executables on Un*x
     63 systems were not properly linking with the shared libraries installed by the
     64 same package.
     65 -- Fixed an issue whereby building the "installer" target on Windows when
     66 WITH_JAVA=1 would fail if the TurboJPEG JAR had not been previously built.
     67 -- Building the "install" target on Windows now installs files into the same
     68 places that the installer does.
     69 
     70 [3] Fixed a Huffman encoder bug that prevented I/O suspension from working
     71 properly.
     72 
     73 
     74 1.2.90 (1.3 beta1)
     75 ==================
     76 
     77 [1] Added support for additional scaling factors (3/8, 5/8, 3/4, 7/8, 9/8, 5/4,
     78 11/8, 3/2, 13/8, 7/4, 15/8, and 2) when decompressing.  Note that the IDCT will
     79 not be SIMD-accelerated when using any of these new scaling factors.
     80 
     81 [2] The TurboJPEG dynamic library is now versioned.  It was not strictly
     82 necessary to do so, because TurboJPEG uses versioned symbols, and if a function
     83 changes in an ABI-incompatible way, that function is renamed and a legacy
     84 function is provided to maintain backward compatibility.  However, certain
     85 Linux distro maintainers have a policy against accepting any library that isn't
     86 versioned.
     87 
     88 [3] Extended the TurboJPEG Java API so that it can be used to compress a JPEG
     89 image from and decompress a JPEG image to an arbitrary position in a large
     90 image buffer.
     91 
     92 [4] The tjDecompressToYUV() function now supports the TJFLAG_FASTDCT flag.
     93 
     94 [5] The 32-bit supplementary package for amd64 Debian systems now provides
     95 symlinks in /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu for the TurboJPEG libraries in /usr/lib32.
     96 This allows those libraries to be used on MultiArch-compatible systems (such as
     97 Ubuntu 11 and later) without setting the linker path.
     98 
     99 [6] The TurboJPEG Java wrapper should now find the JNI library on Mac systems
    100 without having to pass -Djava.library.path=/usr/lib to java.
    101 
    102 [7] TJBench has been ported to Java to provide a convenient way of validating
    103 the performance of the TurboJPEG Java API.  It can be run with
    104 'java -cp turbojpeg.jar TJBench'.
    105 
    106 [8] cjpeg can now be used to generate JPEG files with the RGB colorspace
    107 (feature ported from jpeg-8d.)
    108 
    109 [9] The width and height in the -crop argument passed to jpegtran can now be
    110 suffixed with "f" to indicate that, when the upper left corner of the cropping
    111 region is automatically moved to the nearest iMCU boundary, the bottom right
    112 corner should be moved by the same amount.  In other words, this feature causes
    113 jpegtran to strictly honor the specified width/height rather than the specified
    114 bottom right corner (feature ported from jpeg-8d.)
    115 
    116 [10] JPEG files using the RGB colorspace can now be decompressed into grayscale
    117 images (feature ported from jpeg-8d.)
    118 
    119 [11] Fixed a regression caused by 1.2.1[7] whereby the build would fail with
    120 multiple "Mismatch in operand sizes" errors when attempting to build the x86
    121 SIMD code with NASM 0.98.
    122 
    123 [12] The in-memory source/destination managers (jpeg_mem_src() and
    124 jpeg_mem_dest()) are now included by default when building libjpeg-turbo with
    125 libjpeg v6b or v7 emulation, so that programs can take advantage of these
    126 functions without requiring the use of the backward-incompatible libjpeg v8
    127 ABI.  The "age number" of the libjpeg-turbo library on Un*x systems has been
    128 incremented by 1 to reflect this.  You can disable this feature with a
    129 configure/CMake switch in order to retain strict API/ABI compatibility with the
    130 libjpeg v6b or v7 API/ABI (or with previous versions of libjpeg-turbo.)  See
    131 README-turbo.txt for more details.
    132 
    133 [13] Added ARM v7s architecture to libjpeg.a and libturbojpeg.a in the official
    134 libjpeg-turbo binary package for OS X, so that those libraries can be used to
    135 build applications that leverage the faster CPUs in the iPhone 5 and iPad 4.
    136 
    137 
    138 1.2.1
    139 =====
    140 
    141 [1] Creating or decoding a JPEG file that uses the RGB colorspace should now
    142 properly work when the input or output colorspace is one of the libjpeg-turbo
    143 colorspace extensions.
    144 
    145 [2] When libjpeg-turbo was built without SIMD support and merged (non-fancy)
    146 upsampling was used along with an alpha-enabled colorspace during
    147 decompression, the unused byte of the decompressed pixels was not being set to
    148 0xFF.  This has been fixed.  TJUnitTest has also been extended to test for the
    149 correct behavior of the colorspace extensions when merged upsampling is used.
    150 
    151 [3] Fixed a bug whereby the libjpeg-turbo SSE2 SIMD code would not preserve the
    152 upper 64 bits of xmm6 and xmm7 on Win64 platforms, which violated the Win64
    153 calling conventions.
    154 
    155 [4] Fixed a regression caused by 1.2.0[6] whereby decompressing corrupt JPEG
    156 images (specifically, images in which the component count was erroneously set
    157 to a large value) would cause libjpeg-turbo to segfault.
    158 
    159 [5] Worked around a severe performance issue with "Bobcat" (AMD Embedded APU)
    160 processors.  The MASKMOVDQU instruction, which was used by the libjpeg-turbo
    161 SSE2 SIMD code, is apparently implemented in microcode on AMD processors, and
    162 it is painfully slow on Bobcat processors in particular.  Eliminating the use
    163 of this instruction improved performance by an order of magnitude on Bobcat
    164 processors and by a small amount (typically 5%) on AMD desktop processors.
    165 
    166 [6] Added SIMD acceleration for performing 4:2:2 upsampling on NEON-capable ARM
    167 platforms.  This speeds up the decompression of 4:2:2 JPEGs by 20-25% on such
    168 platforms.
    169 
    170 [7] Fixed a regression caused by 1.2.0[2] whereby, on Linux/x86 platforms
    171 running the 32-bit SSE2 SIMD code in libjpeg-turbo, decompressing a 4:2:0 or
    172 4:2:2 JPEG image into a 32-bit (RGBX, BGRX, etc.) buffer without using fancy
    173 upsampling would produce several incorrect columns of pixels at the right-hand
    174 side of the output image if each row in the output image was not evenly
    175 divisible by 16 bytes.
    176 
    177 [8] Fixed an issue whereby attempting to build the SIMD extensions with Xcode
    178 4.3 on OS X platforms would cause NASM to return numerous errors of the form
    179 "'%define' expects a macro identifier".
    180 
    181 [9] Added flags to the TurboJPEG API that allow the caller to force the use of
    182 either the fast or the accurate DCT/IDCT algorithms in the underlying codec.
    183 
    184 
    185 1.2.0
    186 =====
    187 
    188 [1] Fixed build issue with YASM on Unix systems (the libjpeg-turbo build system
    189 was not adding the current directory to the assembler include path, so YASM
    190 was not able to find jsimdcfg.inc.)
    191 
    192 [2] Fixed out-of-bounds read in SSE2 SIMD code that occurred when decompressing
    193 a JPEG image to a bitmap buffer whose size was not a multiple of 16 bytes.
    194 This was more of an annoyance than an actual bug, since it did not cause any
    195 actual run-time problems, but the issue showed up when running libjpeg-turbo in
    196 valgrind.  See http://crbug.com/72399 for more information.
    197 
    198 [3] Added a compile-time macro (LIBJPEG_TURBO_VERSION) that can be used to
    199 check the version of libjpeg-turbo against which an application was compiled.
    200 
    201 [4] Added new RGBA/BGRA/ABGR/ARGB colorspace extension constants (libjpeg API)
    202 and pixel formats (TurboJPEG API), which allow applications to specify that,
    203 when decompressing to a 4-component RGB buffer, the unused byte should be set
    204 to 0xFF so that it can be interpreted as an opaque alpha channel.
    205 
    206 [5] Fixed regression issue whereby DevIL failed to build against libjpeg-turbo
    207 because libjpeg-turbo's distributed version of jconfig.h contained an INLINE
    208 macro, which conflicted with a similar macro in DevIL.  This macro is used only
    209 internally when building libjpeg-turbo, so it was moved into config.h.
    210 
    211 [6] libjpeg-turbo will now correctly decompress erroneous CMYK/YCCK JPEGs whose
    212 K component is assigned a component ID of 1 instead of 4.  Although these files
    213 are in violation of the spec, other JPEG implementations handle them
    214 correctly.
    215 
    216 [7] Added ARM v6 and ARM v7 architectures to libjpeg.a and libturbojpeg.a in
    217 the official libjpeg-turbo binary package for OS X, so that those libraries can
    218 be used to build both OS X and iOS applications.
    219 
    220 
    221 1.1.90 (1.2 beta1)
    222 ==================
    223 
    224 [1] Added a Java wrapper for the TurboJPEG API.  See java/README for more
    225 details.
    226 
    227 [2] The TurboJPEG API can now be used to scale down images during
    228 decompression.
    229 
    230 [3] Added SIMD routines for RGB-to-grayscale color conversion, which
    231 significantly improves the performance of grayscale JPEG compression from an
    232 RGB source image.
    233 
    234 [4] Improved the performance of the C color conversion routines, which are used
    235 on platforms for which SIMD acceleration is not available.
    236 
    237 [5] Added a function to the TurboJPEG API that performs lossless transforms.
    238 This function is implemented using the same back end as jpegtran, but it
    239 performs transcoding entirely in memory and allows multiple transforms and/or
    240 crop operations to be batched together, so the source coefficients only need to
    241 be read once.  This is useful when generating image tiles from a single source
    242 JPEG.
    243 
    244 [6] Added tests for the new TurboJPEG scaled decompression and lossless
    245 transform features to tjbench (the TurboJPEG benchmark, formerly called
    246 "jpgtest".)
    247 
    248 [7] Added support for 4:4:0 (transposed 4:2:2) subsampling in TurboJPEG, which
    249 was necessary in order for it to read 4:2:2 JPEG files that had been losslessly
    250 transposed or rotated 90 degrees.
    251 
    252 [8] All legacy VirtualGL code has been re-factored, and this has allowed
    253 libjpeg-turbo, in its entirety, to be re-licensed under a BSD-style license.
    254 
    255 [9] libjpeg-turbo can now be built with YASM.
    256 
    257 [10] Added SIMD acceleration for ARM Linux and iOS platforms that support
    258 NEON instructions.
    259 
    260 [11] Refactored the TurboJPEG C API and documented it using Doxygen.  The
    261 TurboJPEG 1.2 API uses pixel formats to define the size and component order of
    262 the uncompressed source/destination images, and it includes a more efficient
    263 version of TJBUFSIZE() that computes a worst-case JPEG size based on the level
    264 of chrominance subsampling.  The refactored implementation of the TurboJPEG API
    265 now uses the libjpeg memory source and destination managers, which allows the
    266 TurboJPEG compressor to grow the JPEG buffer as necessary.
    267 
    268 [12] Eliminated errors in the output of jpegtran on Windows that occurred when
    269 the application was invoked using I/O redirection
    270 (jpegtran <input.jpg >output.jpg).
    271 
    272 [13] The inclusion of libjpeg v7 and v8 emulation as well as arithmetic coding
    273 support in libjpeg-turbo v1.1.0 introduced several new error constants in
    274 jerror.h, and these were mistakenly enabled for all emulation modes, causing
    275 the error enum in libjpeg-turbo to sometimes have different values than the
    276 same enum in libjpeg.  This represents an ABI incompatibility, and it caused
    277 problems with rare applications that took specific action based on a particular
    278 error value.  The fix was to include the new error constants conditionally
    279 based on whether libjpeg v7 or v8 emulation was enabled.
    280 
    281 [14] Fixed an issue whereby Windows applications that used libjpeg-turbo would
    282 fail to compile if the Windows system headers were included before jpeglib.h.
    283 This issue was caused by a conflict in the definition of the INT32 type.
    284 
    285 [15] Fixed 32-bit supplementary package for amd64 Debian systems, which was
    286 broken by enhancements to the packaging system in 1.1.
    287 
    288 [16] When decompressing a JPEG image using an output colorspace of
    289 JCS_EXT_RGBX, JCS_EXT_BGRX, JCS_EXT_XBGR, or JCS_EXT_XRGB, libjpeg-turbo will
    290 now set the unused byte to 0xFF, which allows applications to interpret that
    291 byte as an alpha channel (0xFF = opaque).
    292 
    293 
    294 1.1.1
    295 =====
    296 
    297 [1] Fixed a 1-pixel error in row 0, column 21 of the luminance plane generated
    298 by tjEncodeYUV().
    299 
    300 [2] libjpeg-turbo's accelerated Huffman decoder previously ignored unexpected
    301 markers found in the middle of the JPEG data stream during decompression.  It
    302 will now hand off decoding of a particular block to the unaccelerated Huffman
    303 decoder if an unexpected marker is found, so that the unaccelerated Huffman
    304 decoder can generate an appropriate warning.
    305 
    306 [3] Older versions of MinGW64 prefixed symbol names with underscores by
    307 default, which differed from the behavior of 64-bit Visual C++.  MinGW64 1.0
    308 has adopted the behavior of 64-bit Visual C++ as the default, so to accommodate
    309 this, the libjpeg-turbo SIMD function names are no longer prefixed with an
    310 underscore when building with MinGW64.  This means that, when building
    311 libjpeg-turbo with older versions of MinGW64, you will now have to add
    312 -fno-leading-underscore to the CFLAGS.
    313 
    314 [4] Fixed a regression bug in the NSIS script that caused the Windows installer
    315 build to fail when using the Visual Studio IDE.
    316 
    317 [5] Fixed a bug in jpeg_read_coefficients() whereby it would not initialize
    318 cinfo->image_width and cinfo->image_height if libjpeg v7 or v8 emulation was
    319 enabled.  This specifically caused the jpegoptim program to fail if it was
    320 linked against a version of libjpeg-turbo that was built with libjpeg v7 or v8
    321 emulation.
    322 
    323 [6] Eliminated excessive I/O overhead that occurred when reading BMP files in
    324 cjpeg.
    325 
    326 [7] Eliminated errors in the output of cjpeg on Windows that occurred when the
    327 application was invoked using I/O redirection (cjpeg <inputfile >output.jpg).
    328 
    329 
    330 1.1.0
    331 =====
    332 
    333 [1] The algorithm used by the SIMD quantization function cannot produce correct
    334 results when the JPEG quality is >= 98 and the fast integer forward DCT is
    335 used.  Thus, the non-SIMD quantization function is now used for those cases,
    336 and libjpeg-turbo should now produce identical output to libjpeg v6b in all
    337 cases.
    338 
    339 [2] Despite the above, the fast integer forward DCT still degrades somewhat for
    340 JPEG qualities greater than 95, so the TurboJPEG wrapper will now automatically
    341 use the slow integer forward DCT when generating JPEG images of quality 96 or
    342 greater.  This reduces compression performance by as much as 15% for these
    343 high-quality images but is necessary to ensure that the images are perceptually
    344 lossless.  It also ensures that the library can avoid the performance pitfall
    345 created by [1].
    346 
    347 [3] Ported jpgtest.cxx to pure C to avoid the need for a C++ compiler.
    348 
    349 [4] Fixed visual artifacts in grayscale JPEG compression caused by a typo in
    350 the RGB-to-luminance lookup tables.
    351 
    352 [5] The Windows distribution packages now include the libjpeg run-time programs
    353 (cjpeg, etc.)
    354 
    355 [6] All packages now include jpgtest.
    356 
    357 [7] The TurboJPEG dynamic library now uses versioned symbols.
    358 
    359 [8] Added two new TurboJPEG API functions, tjEncodeYUV() and
    360 tjDecompressToYUV(), to replace the somewhat hackish TJ_YUV flag.
    361 
    362 
    363 1.0.90 (1.1 beta1)
    364 ==================
    365 
    366 [1] Added emulation of the libjpeg v7 and v8 APIs and ABIs.  See
    367 README-turbo.txt for more details.  This feature was sponsored by CamTrace SAS.
    368 
    369 [2] Created a new CMake-based build system for the Visual C++ and MinGW builds.
    370 
    371 [3] Grayscale bitmaps can now be compressed from/decompressed to using the
    372 TurboJPEG API.
    373 
    374 [4] jpgtest can now be used to test decompression performance with existing
    375 JPEG images.
    376 
    377 [5] If the default install prefix (/opt/libjpeg-turbo) is used, then
    378 'make install' now creates /opt/libjpeg-turbo/lib32 and
    379 /opt/libjpeg-turbo/lib64 sym links to duplicate the behavior of the binary
    380 packages.
    381 
    382 [6] All symbols in the libjpeg-turbo dynamic library are now versioned, even
    383 when the library is built with libjpeg v6b emulation.
    384 
    385 [7] Added arithmetic encoding and decoding support (can be disabled with
    386 configure or CMake options)
    387 
    388 [8] Added a TJ_YUV flag to the TurboJPEG API, which causes both the compressor
    389 and decompressor to output planar YUV images.
    390 
    391 [9] Added an extended version of tjDecompressHeader() to the TurboJPEG API,
    392 which allows the caller to determine the type of subsampling used in a JPEG
    393 image.
    394 
    395 [10] Added further protections against invalid Huffman codes.
    396 
    397 
    398 1.0.1
    399 =====
    400 
    401 [1] The Huffman decoder will now handle erroneous Huffman codes (for instance,
    402 from a corrupt JPEG image.)  Previously, these would cause libjpeg-turbo to
    403 crash under certain circumstances.
    404 
    405 [2] Fixed typo in SIMD dispatch routines that was causing 4:2:2 upsampling to
    406 be used instead of 4:2:0 when decompressing JPEG images using SSE2 code.
    407 
    408 [3] configure script will now automatically determine whether the
    409 INCOMPLETE_TYPES_BROKEN macro should be defined.
    410 
    411 
    412 1.0.0
    413 =====
    414 
    415 [1] 2983700: Further FreeBSD build tweaks (no longer necessary to specify
    416 --host when configuring on a 64-bit system)
    417 
    418 [2] Created symlinks in the Unix/Linux packages so that the TurboJPEG
    419 include file can always be found in /opt/libjpeg-turbo/include, the 32-bit
    420 static libraries can always be found in /opt/libjpeg-turbo/lib32, and the
    421 64-bit static libraries can always be found in /opt/libjpeg-turbo/lib64.
    422 
    423 [3] The Unix/Linux distribution packages now include the libjpeg run-time
    424 programs (cjpeg, etc.) and man pages.
    425 
    426 [4] Created a 32-bit supplementary package for amd64 Debian systems, which
    427 contains just the 32-bit libjpeg-turbo libraries.
    428 
    429 [5] Moved the libraries from */lib32 to */lib in the i386 Debian package.
    430 
    431 [6] Include distribution package for Cygwin
    432 
    433 [7] No longer necessary to specify --without-simd on non-x86 architectures, and
    434 unit tests now work on those architectures.
