 -*- text -*-
+* GNU/Linux targets now supports "gnu_unique_object" as a value in the .type
+  pseudo op.  It marks the symbol as being globally unique in the entire
+  process.
+
+* ARM assembler now supports .inst[.nw] pseudo-ops to insert opcodes specified
+  in binary rather than text.
+
+* Add support for common symbol alignment to PE formats.
+
+* Add support for the new discriminator column in the DWARF line table,
+  with a discriminator operand for the .loc directive.
+
+* Add support for Sunplus score architecture.
+
+* The .type pseudo-op now accepts a type of STT_GNU_IFUNC which can be used to
+  indicate that if the symbol is the target of a relocation, its value should
+  not be use.  Instead the function should be invoked and its result used as
+  the value.
+ 
+* Add support for Lattice Mico32 (lm32) architecture.
+
+Changes in 2.19:
+
+* New pseudo op .cfi_val_encoded_addr, to record constant addresses in unwind
+  tables without runtime relocation.
+
 * New command line option, -h-tick-hex, for sh, m32c, and h8/300 targets, which
   adds compatibility with H'00 style hex constants.
