      3 Changes in 2.39:
      4 
      5 * New features
      6 
      7 ** The CTF variable section (if generated via ld --ctf-variables) now contains
      8    entries for static functions, hidden functions, and other functions with
      9    no associated symbol.  The associated type is of kind CTF_K_FUNCTION.
     10    (No change if --ctf-variables is not specified, which is the default.)
     11 
     12 Changes in 2.37:
     13 
     14 * New features
     15 
     16 ** Add ctf_lookup_by_symbol name and ctf_arc_lookup_symbol_name, analogues of
     17    existing ctf_lookup_by_symbol and ctf_arc_lookup_symbol, but looking up
     18    symbols by name rather than symbol number.  This also works in places where no
     19    symbol number is known, like in object files and dynamic dicts created by
     20    ctf_create.
     21 
     22 ** libctf supports compilers that encode unrepresentable types via a special
     23    kind (CTF_K_UNKNOWN) as well as via type ID 0.
     24 
     25 * Bugfixes
     26 
     27 ** Avoid duplicating or losing types of data object symbols when
     28    ld -r is used
     29 
     30 ** Prohibit typedefs with no name; prevent the linker/deduplicator
     31    producing such typedefs
     32 
     33 * Bugfixes, also on 2.36 branch
     34 
     35 ** Prevent ctf_lookup_by_name returning success when
     36    looking up nonexistent pointer types
     37 
     38 ** Fix ctf_type_add copying of structs with unnamed members
