[ANNOUNCE] klibc 2.0.5

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



As a new co-maintainer of klibc, I have just released version 2.0.5. 
The git repository remains at:

    https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/libs/klibc/klibc.git

A tarball will be available from the usual place later, but I'm not
currently able to upload there.

This new release fixes various build and run-time failures with current
versions of Linux, gcc, and binutils on mips, sparc and x86; and
several other bugs.

It adds support for reboot arguments; additional options for readlink,
mount, and nfsmount; multiple routes offered through DHCP; and the
riscv64 architecture.

It removes support for the m32r architecture, which was already removed
for Linux.

A git shortlog of changes since version 2.0.4 follows.

Ben.
