+2018.11-rc1, not yet released
+
+ Fixes all over the tree and new features.
+
+ Architecture: RISC-V support (64bit) added.
+
+ Toolchain: Glibc bumped to 2.28. Fortran support for external
+ toolchains. ARM (Linaro) toolchains updated to 8.2-2018.08.
+
+ Hardening flags (RELRO) are now handled by the toolchain
+ wrapper instead of explicitly through CFLAGS/LDFLAGS, fixing a
+ number of issues.
+
+ Filesystems: Support for creating btrfs and f2fs filesystems
+ added.
+
+ Add a number of patches to fix build errors for host utilities
+ on modern distributions using glibc-2.28.
+
+ mkusers: Ensure existing group members are preserved when a
+ group is reprocessed.
+
+ printvars: Fix issue with exceeding shell command line length
+ limits for certain setups.
+
+ Workaround added for incompatibility issues between host-dtc
+ and older U-Boot and Linux kernel versions.
+
+ Detect and reject build paths containing '@', as this confuses
+ a number of packages, including GCC.
+
+ utils/diffconfig: Make it work for (non-Buildroot) config
+ files not using the BR2_ prefix.
+
+ New defconfigs: Amarula a64-relic, Bananapi m2 ultra, Embest
+ riotboard, Hardkernel Odroid XU-4, QEMU riscv64-virt.
+ olimex_a20_olinuxion_lime_mali is renamed to _legacy.
+
+ OpenCL infrastructure support added, similar to how OpenGL is
+ handled.
+
+ Linux-headers: Support for kernel headers from a custom
+ tarball / git repo added.

+ checksec, davici, duktape, ell, haproxy, libclc, libcorrect,
