+0.4.0 (2016-01-29)
+------------------
+
+Note: This release DOES change the libsigrokdecode public C API. This
+means it is NOT backwards-compatible and frontends will need updates.
+
+ * New supported protocol decoders:
+ - adns5020 Bidirectional command and data over an SPI-like protocol
+ - am230x Aosong AM230x/DHTxx/RHTxx humidity/temperature sensor
+ - arm_etmv3 Decode ETM instruction trace packets
+ - arm_itm Trace data from Cortex-M / ARMv7m ITM module
+ - arm_tpiu Filter TPIU formatted trace data into separate streams
+ - eeprom24xx 24xx series I²C EEPROM protocol
+ - em4100 EM4100 100-150kHz RFID protocol
+ - jitter Retrieves the timing jitter between two digital signals
+ - max7219 8-digit LED display driver
+ - mdio Half-duplex sync serial bus for MII management (MAC/PHY)
+ - modbus Modbus RTU protocol for industrial applications
+ - mrf24j40 IEEE 802.15.4 2.4 GHz RF tranceiver chip
+ - nrf24l01 2.4GHz transceiver chip
+ - pwm Analog level encoded in duty cycle percentage
+ - qi Async serial protocol for Qi charger receivers
+ - rfm12 HopeRF RFM12 wireless transceiver control protocol
+ - sdcard_sd Secure Digital card (SD mode) low-level protocol
+ - spdif Serial bus for connecting digital audio devices
+ - stepper_motor Absolute position and movement speed from step/dir
+ - swd Two-wire protocol for debug access to ARM CPUs
+ - tca6408a Texas Instruments TCA6408A 8-bit I²C I/O expander
+ - timing Calculate time between edges
+ - usb_power_delivery USB Power Delivery protocol
+ - usb_request USB (low-speed and full-speed) transaction/request protocol
+ * The 'mx25lxx05d' decoder was renamed to 'spiflash' and made more generic.
+ * arm_itm:
+ - Use objdump instead of addr2line (bug #564).
+ * can:
+ - Emit bit value annotations.
+ - Improve stuff bit annotation placement.
+ * ds1307:
+ - Emit per-bit annotations for registers.
+ - Add more annotation classes (and annotation rows).
+ - Handle register 0x07 (control register).
+ - Handle SRAM register accesses.
+ - Correctly handle address wrap-around.
+ - Warn about (and ignore) non-DS1307 traffic.
+ * edid:
+ - Handle more EDID structure sections.
+ - Add annotation rows.
+ * jitter:
+ - Avoid Unicode string literals (bug #569).
+ * jtag:
+ - Fix/enable OUT_PYTHON output.
+ - Add more annotations, fix a SHIFT-IR/-DR issue.
+ * jtag_stm32:
+ - Fix incorrect handling of registers.
+ - Decode more fields, improve IDCODE handling.
+ - Decode IDCODE contents as strings (not just hex values).
+ * midi:
+ - Fix two incorrect sample numbers.
+ - Update for a change (emit databyte/bits at the same time) in the uart PD.
+ * mrf24j40:
+ - Fix a register address typo.
+ * nunchuk:
+ - Fix inverted button press logic.
+ * pan1321:
+ - Update for a change (emit databyte/bits at the same time) in the uart PD.
+ * onewire_link:
+ - Fix a bug when the samplerate is too low for the PD (bug #357).
+ * parallel:
+ - Enforce that at least one pin must be provided.
+ * pwm:
+ - Avoid Unicode string literals (bug #569).
+ * spi:
+ - OUT_PYTHON docs: Fix order of MISO/MOSI data items.
+ - Tell stacked decoders about missing CS# signal.
+ - Add binary output facilities for MISO/MOSI (bug #424).
+ - Don't decode data lines if CS# isn't asserted (bug #559).
+ - Add a 'TRANSFER' output type.
+ * spiflash:
+ - Implement FAST READ command.
+ - Add a 'chip' option in preparation for supporting more devices.
+ - Fix incorrect 'inputs' field.
+ * tlc5620:
+ - Fix incorrect DAC selection decode, add more annotations.
+ - Only decode the last 11 bits, ignore the rest.
+ - Properly handle LOAD and LDAC based operations.
+ - Handle the case of less than 11 bits in a command.
+ - Add options for per-DAC Vref, show voltages.
+ * uart:
+ - Add signal inversion options 'invert_tx' and 'invert_rx'.
+ - Emit databyte and bits list at the same time to simplify stacked PDs.
+ - Improve sample positions at high data rates.
+ - Handle framing errors better.
+ - Performance-optimize handling of samples when TX and RX are both idle.
+ * usb_packet:
+ - Fix incorrect DATA*/MDATA handling (bug #623).
+ - Handle invalid packets more gracefully (bug #186).
+ - Calculate and check CRC5/CRC16.
+ - Handle errors from usb_signalling.
+ - Handle PREamble transmissions.
+ * usb_request:
+ - Handle transmission timeouts.
+ - Handle PREamble transmissions.
+ * usb_signalling:
+ - Track USB symbol width to compensate frequency errors.
+ - Detect bit stuffing errors.
+ - Handle symbol errors in EOP state.
+ - Use explicit positions for packet start/end (avoids glitches).
+ - Decode RESET and Keep-Alive signalling conditions.
+ - Add option to automatically set signalling speed.
+ - Fix SOP detection after an error condition.
+ - Add signalling states needed after LS PREamble PID.
+ - Detect PREamble PID.
+ * Drop the PD testing framework. It's in the 'sigrok-test' repository now
+ (and is not meant for "end users" or distro packages anyway; it's a pure
+ developer tool/system). This also fixes some PD test related build issues.
+ * Makefile.am: Use libtool's -no-undefined option (fixes MinGW shared build).
+ * Support loading decoders stored in ZIP files.
+ * Updated build requirements:
+ - libglib >= 2.28.0

+ * README: Use clearer descriptions for the dependencies.
+ * Remove all references to the obsolete sigrok-commits mailing list.
+ * Fix incorrect doxygen comment for srd_decoder_list() function (bug #378).
+ * configure.ac:
+ - Fix a shell portability issue ("==" vs. "=").
+ - Use AM_CFLAGS instead of CFLAGS.
+ - Only link the 'check' library into the unit tests (not the lib).
+ * Unit tests:
+ - Fix out-of-tree build.
+ * libsigrokdecode.pc (pkg-config) file:
+ - Fix an issue related to the Python lib dependencies.
+ - Publish decodersdir variable.
+ * Add "-git-<hash>" suffix to development version numbers.
+ * Pass unitsize per sample chunk (bug #352).
+ * Modernize the whole autotools setup.
+ * Build with _POSIX_C_SOURCE=200112L per default.
+ * Build: Show CC and CFLAGS in configuration summary.
+ * Also look for decoders in XDG data directories.
+ * Restrict Python code to stable ABI subset (PEP 384).
+ * Fix various memory leaks.
+ * Fix an issue with PDs not being properly removed upon unload.
+ * Don't let Python override signal handlers (bug #461).
+ * configure: Also check for Python 3.5 (bug #739).
