    thanks to @WorksButNotTested!
  - create a fuzzing dictionary with the help of CodeQL thanks to
    @microsvuln! see utils/autodict_ql
  - afl-fuzz:
  - added patch by @realmadsci to support @@ as part of command line
    options, e.g. `afl-fuzz ... -- ./target --infile=@@`
  - add recording of previous fuzz attempts for persistent mode
    to allow replay of non-reproducable crashes, see
    AFL_PERSISTENT_RECORD in config.h and docs/envs.h
  - fixed a bug when trimming for stdin targets

  - show correct LLVM PCGUARD NATIVE mode when auto switching to it
    and keep fsanitize-coverage-*list=...
    Short mnemnonic NATIVE is now also accepted.
  - qemu_mode (thanks @realmadsci):
  - move AFL_PRELOAD and AFL_USE_QASAN logic inside afl-qemu-trace

    better support for unicode (thanks to @stbergmann for reporting!)
  - fixed a crash in LAF transform for empty strings
  - handle erroneous setups in which multiple afl-compiler-rt are
    compiled into the target. This now also supports dlopen()
    instrumented libs loaded before the forkserver and even after the
    forkserver is started (then with collisions though)
  - the compiler rt was added also in object building (-c) which
    should have been fixed years ago but somewhere got lost :(
  - Renamed CTX to CALLER, added correct/real CTX implementation to
    CLASSIC
  - qemu_mode:
  - added AFL_QEMU_EXCLUDE_RANGES env by @realmadsci, thanks!
  - if no new/updated checkout is wanted, build with:
    NO_CHECKOUT=1 ./build_qemu_support.sh
  - we no longer perform a "git drop"
  - afl-cmin: support filenames with spaces
- afl-3.0c-fix-paths.patch: refreshed
* Mon Mar 01 2021 Marcus Meissner <meissner@suse.com>
- update to 3.10c
  - Mac OS ARM64 support
  - Android support fixed and updated by Joey Jiaojg - thanks!
  - New selective instrumentation option with __AFL_COVERAGE_* commands
    to be placed in the source code.
    Check out instrumentation/README.instrument_list.md
  - afl-fuzz
  - Making AFL_MAP_SIZE (mostly) obsolete - afl-fuzz now learns on
    start the target map size
  - upgraded cmplog/redqueen: solving for floating point, solving
    transformations (e.g. toupper, tolower, to/from hex, xor,
    arithmetics, etc.). This is costly hence new command line option
    `-l` that sets the intensity (values 1 to 3). Recommended is 2.
  - added `AFL_CMPLOG_ONLY_NEW` to not use cmplog on initial seeds
    from `-i` or resumes (these have most likely already been done)
  - fix crash for very, very fast targets+systems (thanks to mhlakhani
    for reporting)
  - on restarts (`-i`)/autoresume (AFL_AUTORESUME) the stats are now
    reloaded and used, thanks to Vimal Joseph for this patch!
  - changed the meaning of '+' of the '-t' option, it now means to
    auto-calculate the timeout with the value given being the max
    timeout. The original meaning of skipping timeouts instead of
    abort is now inherent to the -t option.
  - if deterministic mode is active (`-D`, or `-M` without `-d`) then
    we sync after every queue entry as this can take very long time
    otherwise
  - added minimum SYNC_TIME to include/config.h (30 minutes default)
  - better detection if a target needs a large shared map
  - fix for `-Z`
  - fixed a few crashes
  - switched to an even faster RNG
  - added hghwng's patch for faster trace map analysis
  - printing suggestions for mistyped `AFL_` env variables
  - added Rust bindings for custom mutators (thanks @julihoh)
  - afl-cc
  - allow instrumenting LLVMFuzzerTestOneInput
  - fixed endless loop for allow/blocklist lines starting with a
    comment (thanks to Zherya for reporting)
  - cmplog/redqueen now also tracks floating point, _ExtInt() + 128bit
  - cmplog/redqueen can now process basic libc++ and libstdc++
    std::string comparisons (no position or length type variants)
  - added support for __afl_coverage_interesting() for LTO and our
    own PCGUARD (llvm 10.0.1+), read more about this function and
    selective coverage in instrumentation/README.instrument_list.md
  - added AFL_LLVM_INSTRUMENT option NATIVE for native clang pc-guard
    support (less performant than our own), GCC for old afl-gcc and
    CLANG for old afl-clang
  - fixed a potential crash in the LAF feature
  - workaround for llvm bitcast lto bug
  - workaround for llvm 13
  - qemuafl
  - QASan (address sanitizer for Qemu) ported to qemuafl!
    See qemu_mode/libqasan/README.md
  - solved some persistent mode bugs (thanks Dil4rd)
  - solved an issue when dumping the memory maps (thanks wizche)
  - Android support for QASan
  - unicornafl

  - Improved rust bindings
  - Added a new example harness to compare python, c and rust bindings
  - afl-cmin and afl-showmap now support the -f option
  - afl_plot now also generates a graph on the discovered edges
  - changed default: no memory limit for afl-cmin and afl-cmin.bash
  - warn on any _AFL and __AFL env vars.
  - set AFL_IGNORE_UNKNOWN_ENVS to not warn on unknown AFL_... env vars
  - added dummy Makefile to instrumentation/
  - Updated utils/afl_frida to be 5% faster, 7% on x86_x64
  - Added `AFL_KILL_SIGNAL` env variable (thanks @v-p-b)
  - @Edznux added a nice documentation on how to use rpc.statsd with
    afl++ in docs/rpc_statsd.md, thanks!

  - not specifying -M or -S will now auto-set "-S default"
  - deterministic fuzzing is now disabled by default and can be enabled with

    walk the whole queue approach. Select the old mode with -Z (auto enabled
    with -M)
  - Marcel Boehme submitted a patch that improves all AFFast schedules :)
  - the default schedule is now FAST
  - memory limits are now disabled by default, set them with -m if required

  - If test cases are too large we do a partial read on the maximum
    supported size
  - longer seeds with the same trace information will now be ignored
    for fuzzing but still be used for splicing
  - crashing seeds are now not prohibiting a run anymore but are
    skipped - they are used for splicing, though
  - update MOpt for expanded havoc modes
  - setting the env var AFL_NO_AUTODICT will not load an LTO autodictionary
  - added NO_SPLICING compile option and makefile define
  - added INTROSPECTION make target that writes all mutations to

  - instrumentation
  - We received an enhanced gcc_plugin module from AdaCore, thank you
    very much!!
  - not overriding -Ox or -fno-unroll-loops anymore
  - we now have our own trace-pc-guard implementation. It is the same as
  - fsanitize-coverage=trace-pc-guard from llvm 12, but: it is a) inline
    and b) works from llvm 10.0.1 + onwards :)
  - new llvm pass: dict2file via AFL_LLVM_DICT2FILE, create afl-fuzz
  - x dictionary of string comparisons found during compilation
  - LTO autodict now also collects interesting cmp comparisons,
    std::string compare + find + ==, bcmp

- updated to 2.68c
  - added the GSoC excellent afl++ grammar mutator by Shengtuo to our
    custom_mutators/ (see custom_mutators/README.md) - or get it here:
    https://github.com/AFLplusplus/Grammar-Mutator
  - a few QOL changes for Apple and its outdated gmake
  - afl-fuzz:
  - fix for auto dictionary entries found during fuzzing to not throw out
    a -x dictionary
  - added total execs done to plot file
  - AFL_MAX_DET_EXTRAS env variable added to control the amount of
    deterministic dict entries without recompiling.
  - AFL_FORKSRV_INIT_TMOUT env variable added to control the time to wait
    for the forkserver to come up without the need to increase the overall
    timeout.
  - bugfix for cmplog that results in a heap overflow based on target data
    (thanks to the magma team for reporting!)
  - write fuzzing setup into out/fuzzer_setup (environment variables and
    command line)
  - custom mutators:
  - added afl_custom_fuzz_count/fuzz_count function to allow specifying
    the number of fuzz attempts for custom_fuzz
  - llvm_mode:
  - ported SanCov to LTO, and made it the default for LTO. better
    instrumentation locations
  - Further llvm 12 support (fast moving target like afl++ :-) )
  - deprecated LLVM SKIPSINGLEBLOCK env environment
* Wed Aug 19 2020 Marcus Meissner <meissner@suse.com>
- updated to 2.67c
  - Support for improved afl++ snapshot module:
    https://github.com/AFLplusplus/AFL-Snapshot-LKM
  - Due to the instrumentation needing more memory, the initial memory sizes
    for -m have been increased
  - afl-fuzz:
  - added -F option to allow -M main fuzzers to sync to foreign fuzzers,
    e.g. honggfuzz or libfuzzer
  - added -b option to bind to a specific CPU
  - eliminated CPU affinity race condition for -S/-M runs
  - expanded havoc mode added, on no cycle finds add extra splicing and
    MOpt into the mix
  - fixed a bug in redqueen for strings and made deterministic with -s
  - llvm_mode:
  - now supports llvm 12
  - support for AFL_LLVM_ALLOWLIST/AFL_LLVM_DENYLIST (previous
    AFL_LLVM_WHITELIST and AFL_LLVM_INSTRUMENT_FILE are deprecated and
    are matched to AFL_LLVM_ALLOWLIST). The format is compatible to llvm
    sancov, and also supports function matching :)
  - added neverzero counting to trace-pc/pcgard
  - fixes for laf-intel float splitting (thanks to mark-griffin for
    reporting)
  - fixes for llvm 4.0
  - skipping ctors and ifuncs for instrumentation
  - LTO: switch default to the dynamic memory map, set AFL_LLVM_MAP_ADDR
    for a fixed map address (eg. 0x10000)
  - LTO: improved stability for persistent mode, no other instrumentation
    has that advantage
  - LTO: fixed autodict for long strings
  - LTO: laf-intel and redqueen/cmplog are now applied at link time
    to prevent llvm optimizing away the splits
  - LTO: autodictionary mode is a fixed default now
  - LTO: instrim instrumentation disabled, only classic support used
    as it is always better

  - setting AFL_LLVM_LAF_SPLIT_FLOATS now activates
    AFL_LLVM_LAF_SPLIT_COMPARES
  - support for -E and -shared compilation runs
  - added honggfuzz mangle as a custom mutator in custom_mutators/honggfuzz
  - added afl-frida gum solution to examples/afl_frida (mostly imported
    from https://github.com/meme/hotwax/)

  - new README, added FAQ
* Thu Jul 02 2020 Marcus Meissner <meissner@suse.com>
- updated to 2.66c
  - renamed blacklist/whitelist to ignorelist/instrumentlist ->
    AFL_LLVM_INSTRUMENT_FILE and AFL_GCC_INSTRUMENT_FILE
  - warn on deprecated environment variables
  - afl-fuzz:
  - -S secondary nodes now only sync from the main node to increase
    performance, the -M main node still syncs from everyone. Added checks
    that ensure exactly one main node is present and warn otherwise
  - Add -D after -S to force a secondary to perform deterministic fuzzing
  - If no main node is present at a sync one secondary node automatically
    becomes a temporary main node until a real main nodes shows up
  - Fixed a mayor performance issue we inherited from AFLfast
  - switched murmur2 hashing and random() for xxh3 and xoshiro256**,
    resulting in an up to 5.5% speed increase
  - Resizing the window does not crash afl-fuzz anymore
  - Ensure that the targets are killed on exit
  - fix/update to MOpt (thanks to arnow117)
  - added MOpt dictionary support from repo
  - added experimental SEEK power schedule. It is EXPLORE with ignoring
    the runtime and less focus on the length of the test case
  - llvm_mode:
  - the default instrumentation is now PCGUARD if the llvm version is >= 7,
    as it is faster and provides better coverage. The original afl
    instrumentation can be set via AFL_LLVM_INSTRUMENT=AFL. This is
    automatically done when the instrument_file list feature is used.
  - PCGUARD mode is now even better because we made it collision free - plus
    it has a fixed map size, so it is also faster! :)
  - some targets want a ld variant for LD that is not gcc/clang but ld,
    added afl-ld-lto to solve this
  - lowered minimum required llvm version to 3.4 (except LLVMInsTrim, which
    needs 3.8.0)
  - instrument_file list feature now supports wildcards (thanks to sirmc)
  - small change to cmplog to make it work with current llvm 11-dev
  - added AFL_LLVM_LAF_ALL, sets all laf-intel settings
  - LTO instrument_files functionality rewritten, now main, _init etc functions
    need not to be listed anymore
  - fixed crash in compare-transform-pass when strcasecmp/strncasecmp was
    tried to be instrumented with LTO
  - fixed crash in cmplog with LTO
  - enable snapshot lkm also for persistent mode
  - Unicornafl
  - Added powerPC support from unicorn/next
  - rust bindings!
  - CMPLOG/Redqueen now also works for MMAP sharedmem
  - ensure shmem is released on errors
  - we moved radamsa to be a custom mutator in ./custom_mutators/. It is not
    compiled by default anymore.
  - allow running in /tmp (only unsafe with umask 0)
  - persistent mode shared memory testcase handover (instead of via
    files/stdin) - 10-100% performance increase
  - General support for 64 bit PowerPC, RiscV, Sparc etc.
  - fix afl-cmin.bash
  - slightly better performance compilation options for afl++ and targets
  - fixed afl-gcc/afl-as that could break on fast systems reusing pids in
    the same second
  - added lots of dictionaries from oss-fuzz, go-fuzz and Jakub Wilk
  - added former post_library examples to examples/custom_mutators/
  - Dockerfile upgraded to Ubuntu 20.04 Focal and installing llvm 11 and
    gcc 10 so afl-clang-lto can be build
* Fri May 15 2020 Marcus Meissner <meissner@suse.com>
- updated to 2.65c
  - afl-fuzz:
  - AFL_MAP_SIZE was not working correctly
  - better python detection
  - an old, old bug in afl that would show negative stability in rare
    circumstances is now hopefully fixed
  - AFL_POST_LIBRARY was deprecated, use AFL_CUSTOM_MUTATOR_LIBRARY
    instead (see docs/custom_mutators.md)
  - llvm_mode:
  - afl-clang-fast/lto now do not skip single block functions. This
    behaviour can be reactivated with AFL_LLVM_SKIPSINGLEBLOCK
  - if LLVM 11 is installed the posix shm_open+mmap is used and a fixed
    address for the shared memory map is used as this increases the
    fuzzing speed
  - InsTrim now has an LTO version! :-) That is the best and fastest mode!
  - fixes to LTO mode if instrumented edges > MAP_SIZE
  - CTX and NGRAM can now be used together
  - CTX and NGRAM are now also supported in CFG/INSTRIM mode
  - AFL_LLVM_LAF_TRANSFORM_COMPARES could crash, fixed
  - added AFL_LLVM_SKIP_NEVERZERO to skip the never zero coverage counter
    implementation. For targets with few or no loops or heavily called
    functions. Gives a small performance boost.
  - qemu_mode:
  - add information on PIE/PIC load addresses for 32 bit
  - better dependency checks
  - gcc_plugin:
  - better dependency checks
  - unicorn_mode:
  - validate_crash_callback can now count non-crashing inputs as crash as well
  - better submodule handling
  - afl-showmap: fix for -Q mode
  - added examples/afl_network_proxy which allows to fuzz a target over the
    network (not fuzzing tcp/ip services but running afl-fuzz on one system
    and the target being on an embedded device)
  - added examples/afl_untracer which does a binary-only fuzzing with the
    modifications done in memory (intel32/64 and aarch64 support)
  - added examples/afl_proxy which can be easily used to fuzz and instrument
    non-standard things
  - all:
  - forkserver communication now also used for error reporting
  - fix 32 bit build options
  - make clean now leaves qemu-3.1.1.tar.xz and the unicornafl directory
    intact if in a git/svn checkout - unless "deepclean" is used
* Sat Apr 18 2020 Marcus Meissner <meissner@suse.com>
- updated to 2.64c
  - llvm_mode LTO mode:
  - now requires llvm11 - but compiles all targets! :)
  - autodictionary feature added, enable with `AFL_LLVM_LTO_AUTODICTIONARY`
  - variable map size usage
  - afl-fuzz:
  - variable map size support added (only LTO mode can use this)
  - snapshot feature usage now visible in UI
  - Now setting `-L -1` will enable MOpt in parallel to normal mutation.
    Additionally, this allows to run dictionaries, radamsa and cmplog.
  - fix for cmplog/redqueen mode if stdin was used
  - fix for writing a better plot_data file
  - qemu_mode: fix for persistent mode (which would not terminate or get stuck)
  - compare-transform/AFL_LLVM_LAF_TRANSFORM_COMPARES now transforms also
    static global and local variable comparisons (cannot find all though)
  - extended forkserver: map_size and more information is communicated to
    afl-fuzz (and afl-fuzz acts accordingly)
  - new environment variable: AFL_MAP_SIZE to specify the size of the shared map
  - if AFL_CC/AFL_CXX is set but empty afl compilers did fail, fixed
    (this bug is in vanilla afl too)
  - added NO_PYTHON flag to disable python support when building afl-fuzz
  - more refactoring
* Sun Apr 12 2020 Marcus Meissner <meissner@suse.com>
- updated to 2.63c
  - all:
  - big code changes to make afl-fuzz thread-safe so afl-fuzz can spawn
    multiple fuzzing threads in the future or even become a library
  - afl basic tools now report on the environment variables picked up
  - more tools get environment variable usage info in the help output
  - force all output to stdout (some OK/SAY/WARN messages were sent to

  - LTO collision free instrumented added in llvm_mode with afl-clang-lto -
    note that this mode is amazing, but quite some targets won't compile
  - Added llvm_mode NGRAM prev_loc coverage by Adrean Herrera
    (https://github.com/adrianherrera/afl-ngram-pass/), activate by setting
    AFL_LLVM_INSTRUMENT=NGRAM-<value> or AFL_LLVM_NGRAM_SIZE=<value>
  - Added llvm_mode context sensitive branch coverage, activated by setting
    AFL_LLVM_INSTRUMENT=CTX or AFL_LLVM_CTX=1
  - llvm_mode InsTrim mode:
  - removed workaround for bug where paths were not instrumented and
    imported fix by author
  - made skipping 1 block functions an option and is disabled by default,
    set AFL_LLVM_INSTRIM_SKIPSINGLEBLOCK=1 to re-enable this
  - qemu_mode:
  - qemu_mode now uses solely the internal capstone version to fix builds
    on modern Linux distributions
  - QEMU now logs routine arguments for CmpLog when the target is x86

    (which is pointless) to total execs per second
  - bugfix for dictionary insert stage count (fix via Google repo PR)
  - added warning if -M is used together with custom mutators with _ONLY option
  - AFL_TMPDIR checks are now later and better explained if they fail

    should be
    3. (major) incorrect prev_loc was written, fixed!
  - afl-clang-fast:

    reliable one
  * Added a note about THP performance
  * Added a somewhat unofficial support for running afl-tmin with a
    baseline "mask" that causes it to minimize only for edges that
    are unique to the input file, but not to the "boring" baseline.

    with -S / -d. See the discussion of FidgetyAFL in:
    https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/afl-users/fOPeb62FZUg
    While this does not implement the approach proposed by the authors of
    the CCS paper, the solution is a result of digging into that research;
    more improvements may follow as I do more experiments and get more
    definitive data.
- Version 2.30b:
  - Made minor improvements to persistent mode to avoid the remote
    possibility of "no instrumentation detected" issues with very low
    instrumentation densities.
  - Fixed a minor glitch with a leftover process in persistent mode.
    Reported by Jakub Wilk and Daniel Stender.
  - Made persistent mode bitmaps a bit more consistent and adjusted the way
    this is shown in the UI, especially in persistent mode.

  - Added libtokencap, a simple feature to intercept strcmp / memcmp and
    generate dictionary entries that can help extend coverage.
  - Moved libdislocator to its own dir, added README.
  - The demo in experimental/instrumented_cmp is no more.

    it out with AFL_LD_PRELOAD=/path/to/libdislocator.so when running
    afl-fuzz.
- Version 2.23b:
  - Improved the stability metric for persistent mode binaries. Problem
    spotted by Kurt Roeckx.
  - Made a related improvement that may bring the metric to 100% for those
    targets.
- Version 2.22b:
  - Mentioned the potential conflicts between MSAN / ASAN and FORTIFY_SOURCE.
    There is no automated check for this, since some distros may implicitly
    set FORTIFY_SOURCE outside of the compiler's argv[].
  - Populated the support for AFL_LD_PRELOAD to all companion tools.
  - Made a change to the handling of ./afl-clang-fast -v. Spotted by
    Jan Kneschke.
