      trusted CA with a non DER-compliant certificate. Found by luocm on GitHub.
      Fixes #825.
 
+Features
+   * Add option MBEDTLS_AES_FEWER_TABLES to dynamically compute 3/4 of the AES tables
+     during runtime, thereby reducing the RAM/ROM footprint by ~6kb. Suggested
+     and contributed by jkivilin in #394.
+
 Bugfix
    * Fix spurious uninitialized variable warning in cmac.c. Fix independently
      contributed by Brian J Murray and David Brown.

+ * Tradeoff: Using precomputed ROM tables reduces RAM usage by ~8kb
+ * (or ~2kb if \c MBEDTLS_AES_FEWER_TABLES is used) and reduces the
+ * initialization time before the first AES operation can be performed.
+ * It comes at the cost of additional ~8kb ROM use (resp. ~2kb if \c
+ * MBEDTLS_AES_FEWER_TABLES below is used), and potentially degraded

+ * Use less ROM/RAM for AES tables.
+ *
+ * Uncommenting this macro omits 75% of the AES tables from
+ * ROM / RAM (depending on the value of \c MBEDTLS_AES_ROM_TABLES)
+ * by computing their values on the fly during operations
+ * (the tables are entry-wise rotations of one another).
+ *
+ * Tradeoff: Uncommenting this reduces the RAM / ROM footprint
+ * by ~6kb but at the cost of more arithmetic operations during
+ * runtime. Specifically, one has to compare 4 accesses within
+ * different tables to 4 accesses with additional arithmetic
+ * operations within the same table. The performance gain/loss
+ * depends on the system and memory details.
