  • This change adds new classes/functions/structs/types to a public C header file or Python module

Backwards Incompatible Changes

  • This change modifies an existing class/function/struct/type definition in a public C header file or Python module
  • This change removes an existing class/function/struct/type from a public C header file or Python module

If any of the Backwards Incompatible check boxes are ticked please provide a justification why this change is necessary and why it needs to be done in a backwards incompatible way.

Review Status

From time to time corner cases have been identified in the coincidence code that have negatively impacted searches, and this tried to provide a framework for verifying the correct behaviour of the code. A proof document is provided, and the test requires the coincidence code to reproduce it exactly. Also a utility is provided to generate new proof documents, but it is not run as part of the test suite as it is extremely time consuming.
