| |
| Libabigail <insert-version-number-here> has been released. |
| |
| You can download it at http://mirrors.kernel.org/sourceware/libabigail/libabigail-<insert-version-number-here>.tar.gz. |
| |
| Libabigail is a library which aims at constructing, manipulating, |
| serializing and de-serializing ABI-relevant artifacts. |
| |
| It also comes with a set of associated command line tools to compare |
| the interfaces of ELF binaries resulting from the compilation of C or |
| C++ programs. |
| |
| Typical use cases of libabigail tools include detecting ABI |
| incompatible changes across several releases of shared libraries or |
| incompatible changes in the interface between a Linux kernel and its |
| modules, for instance. |
| |
| Users can of course write their own tools using the library. |
| |
| The library comes with extensive API documentation available online at |
| https://sourceware.org/libabigail/apidoc. The tools are documented |
| online as well at https://sourceware.org/libabigail/manual/libabigail-tools.html. |
