* Support for tracepoints on aarch64-linux was added in GDBserver.
+* New options
+
+set validate-build-id (on|off)
+show validate-build-id
+ Inferior shared library and symbol file may contain unique build-id.
+ If both build-ids are present but they do not match then this setting
+ enables (off) or disables (on) loading of such symbol file.
+
+* New features in the GDB remote stub, GDBserver
+
+ ** library-list-svr4 contains also optional attribute 'build-id' for
+ each library. GDB does not load library with build-id that
+ does not match such attribute.
+
*** Changes in GDB 7.10
* Support for process record-replay and reverse debugging on aarch64*-linux*
