+
+ * README:
+ * VERSION:
+ update for 0.8.11 release.
+
+ * lib/libelf.h:
+ add ELF_F_LAYOUT_OVERLAP flag.
+
+ * lib/rawfile.c:
+ fix re-read zero size bug.
+
+ * lib/update.c:
+ honor ELF_F_LAYOUT_OVERLAP flag.

+Changes since 0.8.11:
+
+ * Due to some unfortunate confusion, the elf_getphnum(),
+ elf_getshnum() and elf_getshstrndx() are not compatible
+ between libelf implementations. Therefore, the developers
+ decided to replace them with new functions: elf_getphdrnum(),
+ elf_getshdrnum() and elf_getshdrstrndx(), which will always
+ return -1 on failure and 0 on success. Code using the old
+ interface should be upgraded to increase portability.
+
+Changes since 0.8.10:
+
+ * Fixed a bug in elf_rawfile().
+ * If you use ELF_F_LAYOUT together with ELF_F_LAYOUT_OVERLAP,
+ elf_update() will now tolerate overlapping sections.
