Libabigail 1.1 is out!
Hello,
Libabigail 1.1 has been released.
You can download it at http://mirrors.kernel.org/sourceware/libabigail/libabigail-1.1.tar.gz.
Libabigail is a library which aims at constructing, manipulating,
serializing and de-serializing ABI-relevant artifacts.
It also comes with a set of associated command line tools to compare
the interfaces of ELF binaries resulting from the compilation of C or
C++ programs.
Typical use cases of libabigail tools include detecting ABI
incompatible changes across several releases of shared libraries or
incompatible changes in the interface between a Linux kernel and its
modules, for instance.
Users can of course write their own tools using the library.
The library comes with extensive API documentation available online at
https://sourceware.org/libabigail/apidoc. The tools are documented
online as well at https://sourceware.org/libabigail/manual/libabigail-tools.html.
Below is a summary of the significant changes brought to you in this
new release:
