You can inspect the test setup in the `fuzz` sub-directory, which also has instructions on how to run the tests yourself. + +On top of that, every commit is tested using an address sanitizer in CI to catch any out of bounds memory accesses. + +Even though neither fuzzing nor sanitization has revealed any safety bugs yet, please don't hesitate to file an issue if you run into any crashes or other unexpected behaviour. + +## Available feature flags + +### `std` (default: enabled) + +This library supports being built without the Rust `std` library, which is useful for low-level use-cases such as embedded where no operating system is available. To build the crate in a `no_std` context, disable the default `std` feature. + +Note: Because runtime CPU feature detection requires OS support, the specialized SIMD implementations will be unavailable when the `std` feature is disabled. + +### `nightly` (default: disabled) + +This feature flag enables unstable features that are only available on the `nightly` channel. Keep in mind that when enabling this feature flag, you +might experience breaking changes when updating compiler versions. + +Currently, enabling this feature flag will make the optimized `aarch64` implementation available. + +## License + +This project is licensed under either of + +- Apache License, Version 2.0, ([LICENSE-APACHE](LICENSE-APACHE) or + http://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0) +- MIT license ([LICENSE-MIT](LICENSE-MIT) or + http://opensource.org/licenses/MIT) + +at your option. + +### Contribution + +Unless you explicitly state otherwise, any contribution intentionally submitted +for inclusion in this project by you, as defined in the Apache-2.0 license, +shall be dual licensed as above, without any additional terms or conditions. -- cgit v1.2.3
