ELFUTILS 0.177 - http://elfutils.org/

A new release of elfutils is available at:
ftp://sourceware.org/pub/elfutils/0.177/
or https://sourceware.org/elfutils/ftp/0.177/

* NEWS *

elfclassify: New tool to analyze ELF objects.

readelf: Print DW_AT_data_member_location as decimal offset.
         Decode DW_AT_discr_list block attributes.

libdw: Add DW_AT_GNU_numerator, DW_AT_GNU_denominator and DW_AT_GNU_bias.

libdwelf: Add dwelf_elf_e_machine_string.
          dwelf_elf_begin now only returns NULL when there is an error
          reading or decompressing a file. If the file is not an ELF file
          an ELF handle of type ELF_K_NONE is returned.

backends: Add support for C-SKY.
