    change if --with-cpu=nps400 is used at configure time.
  * Improve assignment of LMAs to orphan sections in some edge cases where a
    mixture of both AT>LMA_REGION and AT(LMA) are used.
  * Orphan sections placed after an empty section that has an AT(LMA) will now
    take an load memory address starting from LMA.
  * Section groups can now be resolved (the group deleted and the group members
    placed like normal sections) at partial link time either using the new

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed Mar  8 11:25:04 UTC 2017 - rguenther@suse.com

- Update to binutils 2.28.
  * Add support for locating separate debug info files using the build-id
    method, where the separate file has a name based upon the build-id of
    the original file.
  * This version of binutils fixes a problem with PowerPC VLE 16A and 16D
    relocations which were functionally swapped, for example,
    R_PPC_VLE_HA16A performed like R_PPC_VLE_HA16D while R_PPC_VLE_HA16D
    performed like R_PPC_VLE_HA16A.  This could have been fixed by
    renumbering relocations, which would keep object files created by an
    older version of gas compatible with a newer ld.  However, that would
    require an ABI update, affecting other assemblers and linkers that
    create and process the relocations correctly.  It is recommended that
    all VLE object files be recompiled, but ld can modify the relocations
    if --vle-reloc-fixup is passed to ld.  If the new ld command line
    option is not used, ld will ld warn on finding relocations inconsistent
    with the instructions being relocated.
  * The nm program has a new command line option (--with-version-strings)
    which will display a symbol's version information, if any, after the
    symbol's name.
  * The ARC port of objdump now accepts a -M option to specify the extra
    instruction class(es) that should be disassembled.
  * The --remove-section option for objcopy and strip now accepts section
    patterns starting with an exclamation point to indicate a non-matching
    section.  A non-matching section is removed from the set of sections
    matched by an earlier --remove-section pattern.
  * The --only-section option for objcopy now accepts section patterns
    starting with an exclamation point to indicate a non-matching section.
    A non-matching section is removed from the set of sections matched by
    an earlier --only-section pattern.
  * New --remove-relocations=SECTIONPATTERN option for objcopy and strip.
    This option can be used to remove sections containing relocations.
    The SECTIONPATTERN is the section to which the relocations apply, not
    the relocation section itself.
  GAS
  * Add support for the RISC-V architecture.
  * Add support for the ARM Cortex-M23 and Cortex-M33 processors.
  GNU ld
  * The EXCLUDE_FILE linker script construct can now be applied outside of the
    section list in order for the exclusions to apply over all input sections
    in the list.
  * Add support for the RISC-V architecture.
  * The command line option --no-eh-frame-hdr can now be used in ELF based
    linkers to disable the automatic generation of .eh_frame_hdr sections.
  * Add --in-implib=<infile> to the ARM linker to enable specifying a set of
    Secure Gateway veneers that must exist in the output import library
    specified by --out-implib=<outfile> and the address they must have.
    As such, --in-implib is only supported in combination with --cmse-implib.
  * Extended the --out-implib=<file> option, previously restricted to x86 PE
    targets, to any ELF based target.  This allows the generation of an import
    library for an ELF executable, which can then be used by another application
    to link against the executable.
  GOLD
  * Add -z bndplt option (x86-64 only) to support Intel MPX.
  * Add --orphan-handling option.
  * Add --stub-group-multi option (PowerPC only).

  * Add -z stack-size option.
  * Add --be8 option (Arm only).
  * Add HIDDEN support in linker scripts.
  * Add SORT_BY_INIT_PRIORITY support in linker scripts.

Mon Oct 20 13:21:04 CEST 2008 - schwab@suse.de

- Update to binutils 2.19.
  * Added -wL switch to dump decoded contents of .debug_line.
  * Added support for "thin" archives which contain pathnames pointing to
    object files rather than the files themselves and which contain a
    flattened symbol index for all objects, and archives, which have been
    added to the archive.
  * Added -F switch to objdump to include file offsets in the disassembly.
  * Added -c switch to readelf to allow string dumps of archive symbol index.
  * Support for SSE5 has been added to the i386 port.
  * Added -p switch to readelf to allow string dumps of sections.
  * New pseudo op .cfi_val_encoded_addr, to record constant addresses in unwind
    tables without runtime relocation.
  * New command line option, -h-tick-hex, for sh, m32c, and h8/300 targets, which
    adds compatibility with H'00 style hex constants.
  * New command line option, -msse-check=[none|error|warning], for x86
    targets.
  * New sub-option added to the assembler's -a command line switch to
    generate a listing output.  The 'g' sub-option will insert into the listing
    various information about the assembly, such as assembler version, the
    command line options used, and a time stamp.
  * New command line option -msse2avx for x86 target to encode SSE
    instructions with VEX prefix.
  * Add Intel XSAVE, EPT, MOVBE, AES, PCLMUL, AVX/FMA support for x86 target.
  * New command line options, -march=CPU[,+EXTENSION...], -mtune=CPU,
    -mmnemonic=[att|intel], -msyntax=[att|intel], -mindex-reg,
    -mnaked-reg and -mold-gcc, for x86 targets.
  * Support for generating wide character strings has been added via the new
    pseudo ops: .string16, .string32 and .string64.
  * Support for SSE5 has been added to the i386 port.
  * Linker scripts support a new INSERT command that makes it easier to
    augment the default script.
  * Linker script input section filespecs may now specify a file within an
    archive by writing "archive:file".
  * The --sort-common switch now has an optional argument which specifies the
    direction of sorting.
  * The M68K linker now supports multiple GOT generation schemes controlled via
    the --got=<type> command line option.
  * The ARM EABI linker will now generate stubs for function calls to symbols
    that are too far away.  The placement of the stubs is controlled by a new
    linker command line option: --stub-group-size=N.

- bfd-assign_file_positions_for_load_sections-STRIP_NONDEBUG-fix.diff:
  Do not only look at the first section in a segment to decide if it has
  contents or not. This fixes the "section ... can't be allocated in segment"
  errors when using objcopy --only-keep-debug to create the *.debug files.
