Noteworthy changes in release 4.10 (2015-03-06)
===============================================

* Improvements
  * Added -yy option to print protocol and address information associated with
    socket descriptors.
  * Extended "-e read=set" and "-e write=set" options to cover sendmsg,
    recvmsg, sendmmsg, and recvmmsg syscalls.
  * Implemented full 32-bit decoding of ioctl commands
    (addresses Debian bug #692913 and Fedora bug #902788).
  * Implemented PTRACE_GETREGS API support on ia64.
  * Implemented PTRACE_GETREGS API support on mips.
  * Implemented PTRACE_GETREGSET API support on s390/s390x.
  * Implemented decoding of getrandom and seccomp syscalls.
  * Implemented full decoding of 64-bit capability sets.
  * Implemented decoding of all prctl commands.
  * Implemented decoding of parametrized ioctl commands.
  * Implemented decoding of evdev ioctl commands.
  * Implemented decoding of v4l ioctl commands.
  * Implemented decoding of SG_IO v4 ioctl commands.
  * Implemented decoding of FIFREEZE/FITHAW/FITRIM ioctl commands.
  * Implemented decoding of FALLOC_FL_* fallocate flags.
  * Implemented decoding of rt_sigreturn signal mask on aarch64,
    x32, and x86_64.
  * Enhanced socket decoder to support bluetooth sockets.
  * Enhanced decoding of unlisted ioctl commands.
  * Enhanced decoding of getsockopt and setsockopt syscall.
  * Enhanced decoding of sysinfo syscall.
  * Enhanced decoding of struct cmsghdr.
  * Enhanced decoding of wait status.
  * Enhanced aio support on non-x86 architectures by using external libaio.h.
  * Added O_TMPFILE to the list of recognized open mode flags.
  * Updated the list of filesystem type constants that is used in decoding
    statfs family syscalls.
  * Updated lists of CAP_*, PR_*, PTRACE_*, SCHED_*, SO_*, SOL_*, SWAP_FLAG_*,
    and TFD_* constants.
  * Updated lists of signal constants from Linux 3.19.
  * Updated lists of errno constants from Linux 3.19.
  * Updated lists of ioctl commands from Linux 3.9.
  * Added new syscall entries to match Linux 3.19.

* Bug fixes
  * Fixed various errors in mapping between syscall numbers and associated
    information like the number of syscall arguments, the name of syscall,
    and syscall decoder.
  * Fixed quoting issues in printing descriptors, filenames, network interface
    names, struct utsname members, device/volume names of BLK* ioctl commands.
  * Fixed uid_t/git_t decoding.
  * Fixed potential out-of-bounds read issues in getdents/getdents64 decoders.
  * Fixed potential open flags truncation on some architectures.
  * Fixed decoding of struct ifreq.ifr_name.
  * Fixed decoding of SIOCSIFNAME ioctl command.
  * Fixed decoding of RENAME_* renameat2 flags.
  * Fixed decoding of UTIME_NOW/UTIME_OMIT timeval structures.
  * Fixed decoding of indirect ipc subcalls on some architectures.
  * Fixed decoding of fanotify_mark syscall on 32-bit architectures.
  * Fixed decoding of 32-bit stat structures on 64-bit architectures.
  * Fixed decoding of 32-bit struct cmsghdr on 64-bit architectures.
  * Fixed decoding of 32-bit preadv/pwritev offset on 64-bit architectures.
  * Fixed decoding of sigreturn/rt_sigreturn signal mask on ia64, ppc, ppc64,
    sparc, sparc64, mips, and s390.
  * Fixed instruction pointer output (-i option) on architectures that support
    several personalities.
  * Fixed behaviour of "-e read=set" and "-e write=set" when read and write
    sets intersect.
  * Fixed build on systems where struct sigaction has no sa_restorer member.
  * Fixed build with uclibc and musl libc.

* Portability
  * Linux kernel >= 2.5.46 is required.
    Older versions without a decent PTRACE_SETOPTIONS support will not work.
  * On mips, linux kernel >= 2.6.15 is required.
    Older versions without a decent PTRACE_GETREGS support will not work.
  * On s390 and s390x, linux kernel >= 2.6.27 is required.
    Older versions without a decent PTRACE_GETREGSET support will not work.
