Current:
* New devices supported:
- ATmega48P (patch #7629 add support for atmega48p)
- AT90PWM316 (bug #21797: AT90PWM316: New part description)
* New programmers supported:
- avrftdi
+ o-link (patch #7672 adding support for O-Link (FTDI based JTAG) as programmer)
+ 4232h (patch #7715 FT4232H support)
- usbasp
+ nibobee (previously specified as '-c usbasp -P nibobee)
+ usbasp-clone (same as usbasp but ignores vendor and product string, checks only vid/pid)
- ftdi_syncbb (new type for synchronous bitbanging with ft232r/ft245r)
+ ft245r (FT245R Synchronous BitBang, miso = D1, sck = D0, mosi = D2, reset = D4)
+ ft232r (FT232R Synchronous BitBang, miso = RxD, sck = RTS, mosi = TxD, reset = DTR)
+ bwmega (BitWizard ftdi_atmega builtin programmer, miso = DSR, sck = DCD, mosi = CTS, reset = RI)
+ arduino-ft232r (Arduino: FT232R connected to ISP, miso = CTS X3(1), sck = DSR X3(2), mosi = DCD X3(3), reset = RI X3(4))
+ diecimila (alias for arduino-ft232r)
* Bugfixes

- patch #7693: Fix config file atmel URLs (+ URLs in avrdude.texi and avrpart.h)
- bug #21663: AT90PWM efuse incorrect, bug #30438: efuse bits written as 0 on at90pwmxx parts
- bug #35261: avrftdi uses wrong interface in avrftdi_paged_(write|load)
- patch #7437 modifications to Bus Pirate module

* Keep track of input file contents
@ -32,7 +55,31 @@ Current:
* The -U option now accepts ELF files as input files, and extracts
the appropriate section contents that matches the requested memory
region.
* Programmers and parts lists
They are now sorted at output with '-c ?'/'-p ?'. (patch #7671: Sorting programmers and parts lists for console output)
Programmers and parts lists in documentation generated from lists mentioned above. (patch #7687: Autogenerating programmers and parts lists for docs)
Output list of programmer types with '-c ?type', add list to documentation
* Configuration files now accepts parent parts/programmers, parts starting with '.' (eg. .xmega) are not included in output parts list and can be used as abstract parents
(bug #34302: Feature request : device configuration with parent classes)
(patch #7688: Implement parent programmers feature)
* Additional config files which are read after default can be specified on command line using '-C +filename'
(patch #7699 Read additional config files)
* Programmer types in configuration file are no longer keywords but specified as string.
So you need to change 'type = XYZ;' to 'type = "XYZ";' in own config files.
(internal: The parser does not need to know all programmer types now, new programmers will update only the table in pgm_type.c.)
* Internals:
- Restructuring and compacting programmer definition part of grammar for config file.
- Cleanup of parser code, removing unused definitions/functions. Using yylex_destroy if available.
- Fixed some more memory leaks, added cleanup code at program exit (to minimize the number of non-freed memory blocks reported by valgrind)
- Fixed some findings reported by cppcheck.
Version 5.11:
* New devices supported:
