- Update to version 2.40:
* Objdump has a new command line option --show-all-symbols which will make it
display all symbols that match a given address when disassembling. (Normally
only the first symbol that matches an address is shown).
* Add --enable-colored-disassembly configure time option to enable colored
disassembly output by default, if the output device is a terminal. Note,
this configure option is disabled by default.
* DCO signed contributions are now accepted.
* objcopy --decompress-debug-sections now supports zstd compressed debug
sections. The new option --compress-debug-sections=zstd compresses debug
sections with zstd.
* addr2line and objdump --dwarf now support zstd compressed debug sections.
* The dlltool program now accepts --deterministic-libraries and
--non-deterministic-libraries as command line options to control whether or
not it generates deterministic output libraries. If neither of these options
are used the default is whatever was set when the binutils were configured.
* readelf and objdump now have a newly added option --sframe which dumps the
SFrame section.
* Add support for Intel RAO-INT instructions.
* Add support for Intel AVX-NE-CONVERT instructions.
* Add support for Intel MSRLIST instructions.
* Add support for Intel WRMSRNS instructions.
* Add support for Intel CMPccXADD instructions.
* Add support for Intel AVX-VNNI-INT8 instructions.
* Add support for Intel AVX-IFMA instructions.
* Add support for Intel PREFETCHI instructions.
* Add support for Intel AMX-FP16 instructions.
* gas now supports --compress-debug-sections=zstd to compress
debug sections with zstd.
* Add --enable-default-compressed-debug-sections-algorithm={zlib,zstd}

- Update to binutils 2.34:
* The disassembler (objdump --disassemble) now has an option to
generate ascii art thats show the arcs between that start and end
points of control flow instructions.
* The binutils tools now have support for debuginfod. Debuginfod is a
HTTP service for distributing ELF/DWARF debugging information as
well as source code. The tools can now connect to debuginfod
servers in order to download debug information about the files that
they are processing.
* The assembler and linker now support the generation of ELF format
files for the Z80 architecture.
- Rename and get binutils-2.34-branch.diff.gz (boo#1160254).
- Rebase add-ulp-section.diff, binutils-revert-plt32-in-branches.diff,
cross-avr-size.patch and binutils-skip-rpaths.patch.
- Add new subpackages for libctf and libctf-nobfd.
- Disable LTO due to boo#1163333.
- Includes fixes for these CVEs:
bnc#1153768 aka CVE-2019-17451 aka PR25070
bnc#1153770 aka CVE-2019-17450 aka PR25078

- Update to binutils 2.33.1:
* Adds support for the Arm Scalable Vector Extension version 2
(SVE2) instructions, the Arm Transactional Memory Extension (TME)
instructions and the Armv8.1-M Mainline and M-profile Vector
Extension (MVE) instructions.
* Adds support for the Arm Cortex-A76AE, Cortex-A77 and Cortex-M35P
processors and the AArch64 Cortex-A34, Cortex-A65, Cortex-A65AE,
Cortex-A76AE, and Cortex-A77 processors.
* Adds a .float16 directive for both Arm and AArch64 to allow
encoding of 16-bit floating point literals.
* For MIPS, Add -m[no-]fix-loongson3-llsc option to fix (or not)
Loongson3 LLSC Errata. Add a --enable-mips-fix-loongson3-llsc=[yes|no]
configure time option to set the default behavior. Set the default
if the configure option is not used to "no".
* The Cortex-A53 Erratum 843419 workaround now supports a choice of
which workaround to use. The option --fix-cortex-a53-843419 now
takes an optional argument --fix-cortex-a53-843419[=full|adr|adrp]
which can be used to force a particular workaround to be used.
See --help for AArch64 for more details.
* Add support for GNU_PROPERTY_AARCH64_FEATURE_1_BTI and
GNU_PROPERTY_AARCH64_FEATURE_1_PAC in ELF GNU program properties
in the AArch64 ELF linker.
* Add -z force-bti for AArch64 to enable GNU_PROPERTY_AARCH64_FEATURE_1_BTI
on output while warning about missing GNU_PROPERTY_AARCH64_FEATURE_1_BTI
on inputs and use PLTs protected with BTI.
* Add -z pac-plt for AArch64 to pick PAC enabled PLTs.
* Add --source-comment[=<txt>] option to objdump which if present,
provides a prefix to source code lines displayed in a disassembly.
* Add --set-section-alignment <section-name>=<power-of-2-align>
option to objcopy to allow the changing of section alignments.

- Update to binutils 2.32:
* The binutils now support for the C-SKY processor series.
* The x86 assembler now supports a -mvexwig=[0|1] option to control
encoding of VEX.W-ignored (WIG) VEX instructions.
It also has a new -mx86-used-note=[yes|no] option to generate (or
not) x86 GNU property notes.
* The MIPS assembler now supports the Loongson EXTensions R2 (EXT2),
the Loongson EXTensions (EXT) instructions, the Loongson Content
Address Memory (CAM) ASE and the Loongson MultiMedia extensions
Instructions (MMI) ASE.
* The addr2line, c++filt, nm and objdump tools now have a default
limit on the maximum amount of recursion that is allowed whilst
demangling strings. This limit can be disabled if necessary.
* Objdump's --disassemble option can now take a parameter,
specifying the starting symbol for disassembly. Disassembly will
continue from this symbol up to the next symbol or the end of the
function.
* The BFD linker will now report property change in linker map file
when merging GNU properties.
* The BFD linker's -t option now doesn't report members within
archives, unless -t is given twice. This makes it more useful
when generating a list of files that should be packaged for a
linker bug report.
* The GOLD linker has improved warning messages for relocations that
refer to discarded sections.
- Remove binutils-2.31-branch.diff.gz, fix-pr23919-[123].diff,
gold-depend-on-opcodes.diff and s390-relro.diff.
- Refresh binutils-skip-rpaths.patch, s390-biarch.diff, cross-avr-size.patch
