*** Changes since GDB 8.1
+* The 'symbol-file' command now accepts an '-o' option to add a relative
+ offset to all sections.
+
* The endianness used with the 'set endian auto' mode in the absence of
an executable selected for debugging is now the last endianness chosen
either by one of the 'set endian big' and 'set endian little' commands

Read symbol table information from file @var{filename}. @code{PATH} is
searched when necessary. Use the @code{file} command to get both symbol
table and program to run from the same file.
+If an optional @var{offset} is specified, it is added to the start
+address of each section in the symbol file. This is useful if the
+program is relocated at runtime, such as the Linux kernel with kASLR
+enabled.

@code{symbol-file} with no argument clears out @value{GDBN} information on your
program's symbol table.
