 ELF Improvements
 ----------------
 
+* ``EI_OSABI`` in the output is now inferred from input object files.
+  (`#97144 <https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/97144>`_)
 * ``--compress-sections <section-glib>={none,zlib,zstd}[:level]`` is added to compress
   matched output sections without the ``SHF_ALLOC`` flag.
   (`#84855 <https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/84855>`_)
   (`#90567 <https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/90567>`_)
 * The default compression level for zlib is now independent of linker
   optimization level (``Z_BEST_SPEED``).
+* zstd compression parallelism no longer requires ``ZSTD_MULITHREAD`` build.
 * ``GNU_PROPERTY_AARCH64_FEATURE_PAUTH`` notes, ``R_AARCH64_AUTH_ABS64`` and
   ``R_AARCH64_AUTH_RELATIVE`` relocations are now supported.
   (`#72714 <https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/72714>`_)
+* ``--no-allow-shlib-undefined`` now rejects non-exported definitions in the
+  ``def-hidden.so ref.so`` case.
+  (`#86777 <https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/86777>`_)
 * ``--debug-names`` is added to create a merged ``.debug_names`` index
   from input ``.debug_names`` sections. Type units are not handled yet.

   (typical for embedded). It also makes full LTO feasible in such cases, since
   IR merging currently prevents the linker script from referring to input
   files. (`#90007 <https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/90007>`_)
+* ``--default-script`/``-dT`` is implemented to specify a default script that is processed
+  if ``--script``/``-T`` is not specified.
+  (`#89327 <https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/89327>`_)
 * ``--force-group-allocation`` is implemented to discard ``SHT_GROUP`` sections
   and combine relocation sections if their relocated section group members are
   placed to the same output section.

 * ``--build-id`` now defaults to generating a 20-byte digest ("sha1") instead
   of 8-byte ("fast"). This improves compatibility with RPM packaging tools.
   (`#93943 <https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/93943>`_)
+* ``-z lrodata-after-bss`` is implemented to place ``.lrodata`` after ``.bss``.
+  (`#81224 <https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/81224>`_)
+* ``--export-dynamic`` no longer creates dynamic sections for ``-no-pie`` static linking.
+* ``--lto-emit-asm`` is now added as the canonical spelling of ``--plugin-opt=emit-llvm``.
+* ``--lto-emit-llvm`` now uses the pre-codegen module.
+  (`#97480 <https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/97480>`_)
+* When AArch64 PAuth is enabled, ``-z pack-relative-relocs`` now encodes ``R_AARCH64_AUTH_RELATIVE`` relocations in ``.rela.auth.dyn``.
+  (`#96496 <https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/96496>`_)
+* ``-z gcs`` and ``-z gcs-report`` are now supported for AArch64 Guarded Control Stack extension.
+* ``-r`` now forces ``-Bstatic``.
+* Thumb2 PLT is now supported for Cortex-M processors.
+  (`#93644 <https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/93644>`_)
+* ``DW_EH_sdata4`` of addresses larger than 0x80000000 is now supported for MIPS32.

+* Certain unknown section types are rejected.
+  (`#85173 <https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/85173>`_)
+* ``PROVIDE(lhs = rhs) PROVIDE(rhs = ...)``, ``lhs`` is now defined only if ``rhs`` is needed.

+  (`#87530 <https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/87530>`_)
+* Orphan placement is refined to prefer the last similar section when its rank <= orphan's rank.
+  (`#94099 <https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/94099>`_)
+  Non-alloc orphan sections are now placed at the end.
+  (`#94519 <https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/94519>`_)
+* R_X86_64_REX_GOTPCRELX of the addq form is no longer incorrectly optimized when the address is larger than 0x80000000.
