[ol8_baseos_latest] elfutils-libelf-0.187-4.el8.x86_64

The elfutils-libelf package provides a DSO which allows reading and
writing ELF files on a high level.  Third party programs depend on
this package to read internals of ELF files.  The programs of the
elfutils package use it also to generate new ELF files.

• Fri May 06 2022 Mark Wielaard <mjw@redhat.com> - 0.187-4

  - Upgrade to elfutils 0.187
    - debuginfod: Support -C option for connection thread pooling.
    - debuginfod-client: Negative cache file are now zero sized instead
      of no-permission files.
    - addr2line: The -A, --absolute option, which shows file names
      includingthe full compilation directory is now the
      default.  To get theold behavior use the new option --relative.
    - readelf, elflint: Recognize FDO Packaging Metadata ELF notes
    - libdw, debuginfo-client: Load libcurl lazily only when files need
      to be fetched remotely. libcurl is now never loaded when
      DEBUGINFOD_URLS is unset. And whenDEBUGINFOD_URLS is set,
      libcurl is only loaded when the debuginfod_begin function is
      called.

    - debuginfod-client: Default $DEBUGINFOD_URLS is computed from
      drop-in files /etc/debuginfod/*.urls rather than
      hardcoded into the /etc/profile.d/debuginfod*
      scripts.
      Add $DEBUGINFOD_MAXSIZE and $DEBUGINFOD_MAXTIME settings
      for skipping large/slow transfers.
      Add $DEBUGINFOD_RETRY for retrying aborted lookups.
    - debuginfod: Supply extra HTTP response headers, describing
      archive/file names that satisfy the requested buildid content.
      Support -d :memory: option for in-memory databases.
      Protect against loops in federated server configurations.
      Add -r option to use -I/-X regexes for grooming stale files.
      Protect against wasted CPU from duplicate concurrent requests.
      Limit the duration of groom ops roughly to rescan (-t) times.
      Add --passive mode for serving from read-only database.
      Several other performance improvements & prometheus metrics.
    - libdw: Support for the NVIDIA Cuda line map extensions.
      DW_LNE_NVIDIA_inlined_call and DW_LNE_NVIDIA_set_function_name
      are defined in dwarf.h. New functions dwarf_linecontext and
      dwarf_linefunctionname.
    - translations: Update Japanese translation.
