* Add a configure option, --enable-64-bit-archive, to force use of a
64-bit format when creating an archive symbol index.
* Add --elf-stt-common= option to objcopy for ELF targets to control
whether to convert common symbols to the STT_COMMON type.
GAS:
* Default to --enable-compressed-debug-sections=gas for Linux/x86 targets.
* Add --no-pad-sections to stop the assembler from padding the end of output
sections up to their alignment boundary.
* Support for the ARMv8-M architecture has been added to the ARM port.
Support for the ARMv8-M Security and DSP Extensions has also been added
to the ARM port.
* ARC backend accepts .extInstruction, .extCondCode, .extAuxRegister, and
.extCoreRegister pseudo-ops that allow an user to define custom
instructions, conditional codes, auxiliary and core registers.
* Add a configure option --enable-elf-stt-common to decide whether ELF
assembler should generate common symbols with the STT_COMMON type by
default. Default to no.
* New command line option --elf-stt-common= for ELF targets to control
whether to generate common symbols with the STT_COMMON type.
* Add ability to set section flags and types via numeric values for ELF
based targets.
* Add a configure option --enable-x86-relax-relocations to decide whether
x86 assembler should generate relax relocations by default. Default to
yes, except for x86 Solaris targets older than Solaris 12.
* New command line option -mrelax-relocations= for x86 target to control
whether to generate relax relocations.
* New command line option -mfence-as-lock-add=yes for x86 target to encode
lfence, mfence and sfence as "lock addl $0x0, (%[re]sp)".
* Add assembly-time relaxation option for ARC cpus.

* Add --fix-stm32l4xx-629360 to the ARM linker to enable a link-time
workaround for a bug in the bus matrix / memory controller for some of
the STM32 Cortex-M4 based products (STM32L4xx)
* Add a configure option --enable-compressed-debug-sections={all,ld} to
decide whether DWARF debug sections should be compressed by default.
* Add support for the ARC EM/HS, and ARC600/700 architectures.
* Experimental support for linker garbage collection (--gc-sections)
has been enabled for COFF and PE based targets.
* New command line option for ELF targets to compress DWARF debug
sections, --compress-debug-sections=[none|zlib|zlib-gnu|zlib-gabi].
* New command line option, --orphan-handling=[place|warn|error|discard], to
adjust how orphan sections are handled. The default is 'place' which gives
the current behaviour, 'warn' and 'error' issue a warning or error
respectively when orphan sections are found, and 'discard' will discard all
orphan sections.
* Add support for LLVM plugin.
* Add --print-memory-usage option to report memory blocks usage.
* Add --require-defined option, it's like --undefined except the new symbol
must be defined by the end of the link.
* Add a configure option --enable-compressed-debug-sections={all,gas} to
decide whether DWARF debug sections should be compressed by default.
* Add support for the ARC EM/HS, and ARC600/700 architectures. Remove
assembler support for Argonaut RISC architectures.
* Add option to objcopy to insert new symbols into a file:
--add-symbol <name>=[<section>:]<value>[,<flags>]
* Add support for the ARC EM/HS, and ARC600/700 architectures.
* Extend objcopy --compress-debug-sections option to support
--compress-debug-sections=[none|zlib|zlib-gnu|zlib-gabi] for ELF
targets.

* Add --data option to strings to only print strings in loadable, initialized
data sections. Change the default behaviour to be --all, but add a new
configure time option of --disable-default-strings-all to restore the old
default behaviour.
* Add --include-all-whitespace to strings.
* Add --dump-section option to objcopy.
* Add support for the Andes NDS32.
* PE binaries now once again contain real timestamps by default. To disable
the inclusion of a timestamp in a PE binary, use the --no-insert-timestamp
command line option.
* Replace support for openrisc and or32 with support for or1k.
* Add support for the --build-id command line option to COFF based targets.
* x86/x86_64 pe-coff now supports the --build-id option.
* Add support for the AVR Tiny microcontrollers.
* Enhanced the ARM port to accept the assembler output from the CodeComposer
Studio tool. Support is enabled via the new command line option -mccs.
- Update to 2.25 branch head.
* Pulls PIE fixes.
