Tue Oct 22 2024 Bruce McCulloch  <bruce.mcculloch@oracle.com> - 2.35.2-54.0.1
    - Forward-port Oracle patches to 2.35.2-54.
  Oracle history:
  March-27-2024 Jose E. Marchesi  <jose.marchesi@oracle.com> - 2.35.2-43.0.1
   - Forward-port Oracle patches to 2.35.2-43.
  March-07-2024 Jose E. Marchesi  <jose.marchesi@oracle.com> - 2.35.2-42.0.2.1
  - Do not set version info on unversion symbols.  (RHEL-22601)
  - Reviewed by: Elena Zannoni <elena.zannoni@oracle.com>
  February-06-2024 Nick Alcock <nick.alcock@oracle.com> - 2.35.2-42.0.2
  - Refresh CTF patches from upstream (2.42).
    - Fix more cases where operations on child dicts could leave errors on
      the parent, this time associated with CTF dict creation (upstream PR
      libctf/30985).
    - Fix the cu-mapped link feature (not exposed by GNU ld) to use only
      the last mapping provided for a given translation unit, rather than a
      random mix of first and last
  - Fix dependencies of libctf.so and libctf-nobfd.so to cite the libraries
    the code actually depends on.  (Fixes observed link problems with
    libctf-nobfd.so needing extra libraries on the link line versus upstream:
    libctf.so changes done purely for consistency.)
  - Add upstream commit 2e93abb858ae, allowing NONE relocs against local absolute
    symbols on x86-64.  (Upstream PR ld/31047).
  October-10-2023 Jose E. Marchesi <jose.marchesi@oracle.com> - 2.35.2-42.0.1
  - Forward-port Oracle patches to 2.35.2-42.
  August-04-2023 Nick Alcock <nick.alcock@oracle.com> - 2.35.2-37.0.2
  - Refresh CTF patches from upstream.
    - Avoid spurious corruption error with symtypetab section emitted by old OL8 GCCs
    - Various obscure install-time linking problems
    - Make objdump/readelf --ctf parameter optional; make objdump --ctf-parent take
      a CTF member name, not a section name
    - Improve dumping of types when some types elicit a libctf error
    - Put functions as well as variables in the (misnamed) CTF variable section
    - Improve handling of various forms of corrupted CTF input.
    - Fix errors in comments in <ctf.h> and <ctf-api.h>
    - Make CTF dicts reproducible even when conflicting types are seen
    - Prevent corruption of output when linking multiple object files derived from
      the same source
    - Minor compiler warning and portability fixes
    - Fix (unlikely) crash-inducing uninitialized memory access and wild
      pointer overwrite when linking
    - Fix the reported offsets of fields within unnamed structs/unions
      [Orabug: 35191322]
    - Fix a number of places where operations carried out on child dicts
      that errored were producing errors on the parent, not the child,
      so the caller never noticed them
