+* Add support for the TMS320C6000 (TI C6X) processor family.
+
+* --add-needed renamed to --copy-dt-needed-entries in order to avoid confusion
+ with --as-needed option.
+
+* Extend .def file syntax by '== <ID>' for imports and exports. This allows
+ to alias the import/export table name written in PE image.
+
+* Add --exlcude-all-symbols option to PE based linkers. This prevents all
+ symbols from automatically being exported.
+
+* Add support for the Renesas RX processor.
+
+Changes in 2.20:
+
+* GNU/Linux targets now support the STB_GNU_UNIQUE symbol binding. This is a
+ GNU extension to the standard set of ELF symbol bindings. The binding will
+ be passed on to the dynamic linker which will make sure that in the entire
+ process there is just one symbol with the given name and type in use.
+
+* PE targets now support a GNU extension to allow the alignment of common
+ common symbols to be specified. This support uses custom options in
+ the .drectve section, which will be disregarded by the native tools.
+
+* PE targets now add primitive support for ELF version scripts; symbols
+ are not versioned, but the local and global symbol visibility directives
+ are respected when filtering symbols in auto-export mode.
+
+* New option --no-export-dynamic to undo the effect of the -E and
+ --export-dynamic options.
+
* ELF: --warn-alternate-em option to warn if an object has alternate
ELF machine code.
automatically in the presence of un-stripped debug information, as GDB
needs to be able to find the debug info sections by their full names.
+* For GNU/Linux systems the linker will now avoid processing any relocations
+ made against symbols of the STT_GNU_IFUNC type and instead emit them into
+ the resulting binary for processing by the loader.
+
* --as-needed now links in a dynamic library if it satisfies undefined
symbols in regular objects, or in other dynamic libraries. In the
latter case the library is not linked if it is found in a DT_NEEDED
