* For RISC-V dis-assembler, the definition of mapping symbol $x is changed,
so the file needs to be rebuilt since 2.45 once used .option arch directives.
+* The LoongArch disassembler now properly accepts multiple disassembly
+ options given by -M, such as "-M no-aliases,numeric". (Previously only the
+ first option took effect.)
+
Changes in 2.44:
* Support for Nios II targets has been removed except in the readelf utility,
* Add support for the x86 Zhaoxin PadLock XMODX instructions.
+* Add support for several instruction aliases defined for the LoongArch 32-bit
+ reduced subset (LA32R): rdcntvl.w, rdcntvh.w, rdcntid.w.
+
+* For LoongArch, warn about out-of-range 3rd arguments (maximum number of
+ bytes to skip) of .align directives.
+
+* For LoongArch, warn about negative right-shift amounts and
+ division/modulus-by-zero when evaluating expressions.
+
Changes in 2.44:
* Add support for the x86 Intel Diamond Rapids AMX instructions, including
* On s390, add support for linker option --[no-]ld-generated-unwind-info.
+* On LoongArch, linker relaxation time complexity is no longer quadratic with
+ respect to relocation counts. Linking time of large software should be
+ improved.
+
+* On LoongArch, R_LARCH_32_PCREL records are now checked for overflow.
+
Changes in 2.44:
* Support for Nios II target has been removed, as this architecture has been
