1 Changelog
2 =========
3
4 + Version 0.25 (??)
5
6 - Make parsing of SH_TYPE and PT_TYPE fields dependent on the machine
7 (e_machine header field), making it possible to support conflicting type
8 enums between different machines (#71 and #121).
9 - Don't attempt to hex/string dump SHT_NOBITS sections in readelf (#119).
10 - Add Python 3.5 testing to the tox file.
11 - Minor bugfixes (#118)
12
13 + Version 0.24 (04.08.2016)
14
15 - Retrieve symbols by name - get_symbol_by_name (#58).
16 - Symbol/section names are strings internally now, not bytestrings (this may
17 affect API usage in Python 3) (#76).
18 - Added DT_MIPS_* constants to ENUM_D_TAG (#79)
19 - Made dwarf_decode_address example a bit more useful for command-line
20 invocation.
21 - More DWARF v4 support w.r.t decoding function ranges; DW_AT_high_pc value
22 is now either absolute or relative to DW_AT_low_pc, depending on the class
23 of the form encoded in the file. Also #89.
24 - Support for SHT_NOTE sections (#109)
25 - Support for .debug_aranges section (#108)
26 - Support for zlib-compressed debug sections (#102)
27 - Support for DWARF v4 line programs (#82)
28
29 + Version 0.23 (08.11.2014)
30
31 - Minimal Python 2.x version raised to 2.7
32 - Basic support for MIPS (contributed by Karl Vogel).
33 - Support for PT_NOTE segment parsing (contributed by Alex Deymo).
34 - Support for parsing symbol table in dynamic segment
35 (contributed by Nam T. Nguyen).
36
37 + Version 0.22 (30.03.2014)
38
39 - pyelftools repository moved to https://github.com/eliben/pyelftools
40 - Support for version sections - contributed by Yann Rouillard.
41 - Better ARM support (including AArch64) - contributed by Dobromir Stefanov.
42 - Added some initial support for parsing Solaris OpenCSW ELF files
43 (contributed by Yann Rouillard).
44 - Added some initial support for DWARF4 (as generated by gcc 4.8)
45 and DWARF generated by recent versions of Clang (3.3).
46 - Added the get_full_path utility method to DIEs that have an associated
47 file name / path (based on pull request #16 by Shaheed Haque).
48 - Set up Travis CI integration.
49
50 + Version 0.21 (17.04.2013)
51
52 - Added new example: dwarf_decode_address - decode function name and
53 file & line information from an address.
54 - Issue #7: parsing incorrect DWARF was made a bit more forgiving for cases
55 where serialized DIE trees have extra NULLs at the end.
56 - Very initial support for ARM ELF files (Matthew Fernandez - pull
57 request #6).
58 - Support for dumping the dynamic section (Mike Frysinger - pull
59 request #7).
60 - Output of scripts/readelf.py now matches that of binutils 2.23.52.
61 - Added more machine EM_ values to ENUM_E_TYPE.
62
63 + Version 0.20 (27.01.2012)
64
65 - Python 3 support
66 - Fixed some problems with running tests
67 - Issue #2: made all examples run (and test/run_examples_test.py pass)
68 on Windows.
