1.2.90 (1.3 beta1) ================== [1] Added support for additional scaling factors (3/8, 5/8, 3/4, 7/8, 9/8, 5/4, 11/8, 3/2, 13/8, 7/4, 15/8, and 2) when decompressing. Note that the IDCT will not be SIMD-accelerated when using any of these new scaling factors. [2] The TurboJPEG dynamic library is now versioned. It was not strictly necessary to do so, because TurboJPEG uses versioned symbols, and if a function changes in an ABI-incompatible way, that function is renamed and a legacy function is provided to maintain backward compatibility. However, certain Linux distro maintainers will blindly reject any library that is not versioned, so this was an attempt to make them happy. [3] Extended the TurboJPEG Java API so that it can be used to compress a JPEG image from and decompress a JPEG image to an arbitrary position in a large image buffer. [4] The tjDecompressToYUV() function now supports the TJFLAG_FASTDCT flag. [5] The 32-bit supplementary package for amd64 Debian systems now provides symlinks in /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu for the TurboJPEG libraries in /usr/lib32. This allows those libraries to be used on MultiArch-compatible systems (such as Ubuntu 11 and later) without setting the linker path. [6] The TurboJPEG Java wrapper should now find the JNI library on Mac systems without having to pass -Djava.library.path=/usr/lib to java. [7] TJBench has been ported to Java to provide a convenient way of validating the performance of the TurboJPEG Java API. It can be run with 'java -cp turbojpeg.jar TJBench'. [8] cjpeg can now be used to generate JPEG files with the RGB colorspace (feature ported from jpeg-8d.) [9] The width and height in the -crop argument passed to jpegtran can now be suffixed with "f" to indicate that, when the upper left corner of the cropping region is automatically moved to the nearest iMCU boundary, the bottom right corner should be moved by the same amount. In other words, this feature causes jpegtran to strictly honor the specified width/height rather than the specified bottom right corner (feature ported from jpeg-8d.) [10] JPEG files using the RGB colorspace can now be decompressed into grayscale images (feature ported from jpeg-8d.) [11] Fixed a regression caused by 1.2.1[7] whereby the build would fail with multiple "Mismatch in operand sizes" errors when attempting to build the x86 SIMD code with NASM 0.98. [12] The in-memory source/destination managers (jpeg_mem_src() and jpeg_mem_dest()) are now included by default when building libjpeg-turbo with libjpeg v6b or v7 emulation, so that programs can take advantage of these functions without requiring the use of the backward-incompatible libjpeg v8 ABI. The "age number" of the libjpeg-turbo library on Un*x systems has been incremented by 1 to reflect this. You can disable this feature with a configure/CMake switch in order to retain strict API/ABI compatibility with the libjpeg v6b or v7 API/ABI (or with previous versions of libjpeg-turbo.) See README-turbo.txt for more details. [13] Added ARM v7s architecture to libjpeg.a and libturbojpeg.a in the official libjpeg-turbo binary package for OS X, so that those libraries can be used to build applications that leverage the faster CPUs in the iPhone 5 and iPad 4. 1.2.1 ===== [1] Creating or decoding a JPEG file that uses the RGB colorspace should now properly work when the input or output colorspace is one of the libjpeg-turbo colorspace extensions. [2] When libjpeg-turbo was built without SIMD support and merged (non-fancy) upsampling was used along with an alpha-enabled colorspace during decompression, the unused byte of the decompressed pixels was not being set to 0xFF. This has been fixed. TJUnitTest has also been extended to test for the correct behavior of the colorspace extensions when merged upsampling is used. [3] Fixed a bug whereby the libjpeg-turbo SSE2 SIMD code would not preserve the upper 64 bits of xmm6 and xmm7 on Win64 platforms, which violated the Win64 calling conventions. [4] Fixed a regression caused by 1.2.0[6] whereby decompressing corrupt JPEG images (specifically, images in which the component count was erroneously set to a large value) would cause libjpeg-turbo to segfault. [5] Worked around a severe performance issue with "Bobcat" (AMD Embedded APU) processors. The MASKMOVDQU instruction, which was used by the libjpeg-turbo SSE2 SIMD code, is apparently implemented in microcode on AMD processors, and it is painfully slow on Bobcat processors in particular. Eliminating the use of this instruction improved performance by an order of magnitude on Bobcat processors and by a small amount (typically 5%) on AMD desktop processors. [6] Added SIMD acceleration for performing 4:2:2 upsampling on NEON-capable ARM platforms. This speeds up the decompression of 4:2:2 JPEGs by 20-25% on such platforms. [7] Fixed a regression caused by 1.2.0[2] whereby, on Linux/x86 platforms running the 32-bit SSE2 SIMD code in libjpeg-turbo, decompressing a 4:2:0 or 4:2:2 JPEG image into a 32-bit (RGBX, BGRX, etc.) buffer without using fancy upsampling would produce several incorrect columns of pixels at the right-hand side of the output image if each row in the output image was not evenly divisible by 16 bytes. [8] Fixed an issue whereby attempting to build the SIMD extensions with Xcode 4.3 on OS X platforms would cause NASM to return numerous errors of the form "'%define' expects a macro identifier". [9] Added flags to the TurboJPEG API that allow the caller to force the use of either the fast or the accurate DCT/IDCT algorithms in the underlying codec. 1.2.0 ===== [1] Fixed build issue with YASM on Unix systems (the libjpeg-turbo build system was not adding the current directory to the assembler include path, so YASM was not able to find jsimdcfg.inc.) [2] Fixed out-of-bounds read in SSE2 SIMD code that occurred when decompressing a JPEG image to a bitmap buffer whose size was not a multiple of 16 bytes. This was more of an annoyance than an actual bug, since it did not cause any actual run-time problems, but the issue showed up when running libjpeg-turbo in valgrind. See http://crbug.com/72399 for more information. [3] Added a compile-time macro (LIBJPEG_TURBO_VERSION) that can be used to check the version of libjpeg-turbo against which an application was compiled. [4] Added new RGBA/BGRA/ABGR/ARGB colorspace extension constants (libjpeg API) and pixel formats (TurboJPEG API), which allow applications to specify that, when decompressing to a 4-component RGB buffer, the unused byte should be set to 0xFF so that it can be interpreted as an opaque alpha channel. [5] Fixed regression issue whereby DevIL failed to build against libjpeg-turbo because libjpeg-turbo's distributed version of jconfig.h contained an INLINE macro, which conflicted with a similar macro in DevIL. This macro is used only internally when building libjpeg-turbo, so it was moved into config.h. [6] libjpeg-turbo will now correctly decompress erroneous CMYK/YCCK JPEGs whose K component is assigned a component ID of 1 instead of 4. Although these files are in violation of the spec, other JPEG implementations handle them correctly. [7] Added ARM v6 and ARM v7 architectures to libjpeg.a and libturbojpeg.a in the official libjpeg-turbo binary package for OS X, so that those libraries can be used to build both OS X and iOS applications. 1.1.90 (1.2 beta1) ================== [1] Added a Java wrapper for the TurboJPEG API. See java/README for more details. [2] The TurboJPEG API can now be used to scale down images during decompression. [3] Added SIMD routines for RGB-to-grayscale color conversion, which significantly improves the performance of grayscale JPEG compression from an RGB source image. [4] Improved the performance of the C color conversion routines, which are used on platforms for which SIMD acceleration is not available. [5] Added a function to the TurboJPEG API that performs lossless transforms. This function is implemented using the same back end as jpegtran, but it performs transcoding entirely in memory and allows multiple transforms and/or crop operations to be batched together, so the source coefficients only need to be read once. This is useful when generating image tiles from a single source JPEG. [6] Added tests for the new TurboJPEG scaled decompression and lossless transform features to tjbench (the TurboJPEG benchmark, formerly called "jpgtest".) [7] Added support for 4:4:0 (transposed 4:2:2) subsampling in TurboJPEG, which was necessary in order for it to read 4:2:2 JPEG files that had been losslessly transposed or rotated 90 degrees. [8] All legacy VirtualGL code has been re-factored, and this has allowed libjpeg-turbo, in its entirety, to be re-licensed under a BSD-style license. [9] libjpeg-turbo can now be built with YASM. [10] Added SIMD acceleration for ARM Linux and iOS platforms that support NEON instructions. [11] Refactored the TurboJPEG C API and documented it using Doxygen. The TurboJPEG 1.2 API uses pixel formats to define the size and component order of the uncompressed source/destination images, and it includes a more efficient version of TJBUFSIZE() that computes a worst-case JPEG size based on the level of chrominance subsampling. The refactored implementation of the TurboJPEG API now uses the libjpeg memory source and destination managers, which allows the TurboJPEG compressor to grow the JPEG buffer as necessary. [12] Eliminated errors in the output of jpegtran on Windows that occurred when the application was invoked using I/O redirection (jpegtran <input.jpg >output.jpg). [13] The inclusion of libjpeg v7 and v8 emulation as well as arithmetic coding support in libjpeg-turbo v1.1.0 introduced several new error constants in jerror.h, and these were mistakenly enabled for all emulation modes, causing the error enum in libjpeg-turbo to sometimes have different values than the same enum in libjpeg. This represents an ABI incompatibility, and it caused problems with rare applications that took specific action based on a particular error value. The fix was to include the new error constants conditionally based on whether libjpeg v7 or v8 emulation was enabled. [14] Fixed an issue whereby Windows applications that used libjpeg-turbo would fail to compile if the Windows system headers were included before jpeglib.h. This issue was caused by a conflict in the definition of the INT32 type. [15] Fixed 32-bit supplementary package for amd64 Debian systems, which was broken by enhancements to the packaging system in 1.1. [16] When decompressing a JPEG image using an output colorspace of JCS_EXT_RGBX, JCS_EXT_BGRX, JCS_EXT_XBGR, or JCS_EXT_XRGB, libjpeg-turbo will now set the unused byte to 0xFF, which allows applications to interpret that byte as an alpha channel (0xFF = opaque). 1.1.1 ===== [1] Fixed a 1-pixel error in row 0, column 21 of the luminance plane generated by tjEncodeYUV(). [2] libjpeg-turbo's accelerated Huffman decoder previously ignored unexpected markers found in the middle of the JPEG data stream during decompression. It will now hand off decoding of a particular block to the unaccelerated Huffman decoder if an unexpected marker is found, so that the unaccelerated Huffman decoder can generate an appropriate warning. [3] Older versions of MinGW64 prefixed symbol names with underscores by default, which differed from the behavior of 64-bit Visual C++. MinGW64 1.0 has adopted the behavior of 64-bit Visual C++ as the default, so to accommodate this, the libjpeg-turbo SIMD function names are no longer prefixed with an underscore when building with MinGW64. This means that, when building libjpeg-turbo with older versions of MinGW64, you will now have to add -fno-leading-underscore to the CFLAGS. [4] Fixed a regression bug in the NSIS script that caused the Windows installer build to fail when using the Visual Studio IDE. [5] Fixed a bug in jpeg_read_coefficients() whereby it would not initialize cinfo->image_width and cinfo->image_height if libjpeg v7 or v8 emulation was enabled. This specifically caused the jpegoptim program to fail if it was linked against a version of libjpeg-turbo that was built with libjpeg v7 or v8 emulation. [6] Eliminated excessive I/O overhead that occurred when reading BMP files in cjpeg. [7] Eliminated errors in the output of cjpeg on Windows that occurred when the application was invoked using I/O redirection (cjpeg <inputfile >output.jpg). 1.1.0 ===== [1] The algorithm used by the SIMD quantization function cannot produce correct results when the JPEG quality is >= 98 and the fast integer forward DCT is used. Thus, the non-SIMD quantization function is now used for those cases, and libjpeg-turbo should now produce identical output to libjpeg v6b in all cases. [2] Despite the above, the fast integer forward DCT still degrades somewhat for JPEG qualities greater than 95, so the TurboJPEG wrapper will now automatically use the slow integer forward DCT when generating JPEG images of quality 96 or greater. This reduces compression performance by as much as 15% for these high-quality images but is necessary to ensure that the images are perceptually lossless. It also ensures that the library can avoid the performance pitfall created by [1]. [3] Ported jpgtest.cxx to pure C to avoid the need for a C++ compiler. [4] Fixed visual artifacts in grayscale JPEG compression caused by a typo in the RGB-to-luminance lookup tables. [5] The Windows distribution packages now include the libjpeg run-time programs (cjpeg, etc.) [6] All packages now include jpgtest. [7] The TurboJPEG dynamic library now uses versioned symbols. [8] Added two new TurboJPEG API functions, tjEncodeYUV() and tjDecompressToYUV(), to replace the somewhat hackish TJ_YUV flag. 1.0.90 (1.1 beta1) ================== [1] Added emulation of the libjpeg v7 and v8 APIs and ABIs. See README-turbo.txt for more details. This feature was sponsored by CamTrace SAS. [2] Created a new CMake-based build system for the Visual C++ and MinGW builds. [3] Grayscale bitmaps can now be compressed from/decompressed to using the TurboJPEG API. [4] jpgtest can now be used to test decompression performance with existing JPEG images. [5] If the default install prefix (/opt/libjpeg-turbo) is used, then 'make install' now creates /opt/libjpeg-turbo/lib32 and /opt/libjpeg-turbo/lib64 sym links to duplicate the behavior of the binary packages. [6] All symbols in the libjpeg-turbo dynamic library are now versioned, even when the library is built with libjpeg v6b emulation. [7] Added arithmetic encoding and decoding support (can be disabled with configure or CMake options) [8] Added a TJ_YUV flag to the TurboJPEG API, which causes both the compressor and decompressor to output planar YUV images. [9] Added an extended version of tjDecompressHeader() to the TurboJPEG API, which allows the caller to determine the type of subsampling used in a JPEG image. [10] Added further protections against invalid Huffman codes. 1.0.1 ===== [1] The Huffman decoder will now handle erroneous Huffman codes (for instance, from a corrupt JPEG image.) Previously, these would cause libjpeg-turbo to crash under certain circumstances. [2] Fixed typo in SIMD dispatch routines that was causing 4:2:2 upsampling to be used instead of 4:2:0 when decompressing JPEG images using SSE2 code. [3] configure script will now automatically determine whether the INCOMPLETE_TYPES_BROKEN macro should be defined. 1.0.0 ===== [1] 2983700: Further FreeBSD build tweaks (no longer necessary to specify --host when configuring on a 64-bit system) [2] Created symlinks in the Unix/Linux packages so that the TurboJPEG include file can always be found in /opt/libjpeg-turbo/include, the 32-bit static libraries can always be found in /opt/libjpeg-turbo/lib32, and the 64-bit static libraries can always be found in /opt/libjpeg-turbo/lib64. [3] The Unix/Linux distribution packages now include the libjpeg run-time programs (cjpeg, etc.) and man pages. [4] Created a 32-bit supplementary package for amd64 Debian systems, which contains just the 32-bit libjpeg-turbo libraries. [5] Moved the libraries from */lib32 to */lib in the i386 Debian package. [6] Include distribution package for Cygwin [7] No longer necessary to specify --without-simd on non-x86 architectures, and unit tests now work on those architectures. 0.0.93 ====== [1] 2982659, Fixed x86-64 build on FreeBSD systems [2] 2988188: Added support for Windows 64-bit systems 0.0.91 ====== [1] Added documentation to .deb packages [2] 2968313: Fixed data corruption issues when decompressing large JPEG images and/or using buffered I/O with the libjpeg-turbo decompressor 0.0.90 ====== Initial release
