<p>An update that contains one feature can now be installed.</p>
<h2>Description:</h2>
<p>This update for valgrind fixes the following issues:</p>
<ul>
<li>update to 3.25.1:<ul>
<li>Incorrect NAN-boxing for float registers in RISC-V</li>
<li>close_range syscalls started failing with 3.25.0</li>
<li>mount syscall param filesystemtype may be NULL</li>
<li>FILE DESCRIPTORS banner shows when closing some inherited fds</li>
<li>FreeBSD: missing syscall wrappers for fchroot and setcred</li>
<li>Double close causes SEGV</li>
<li>The valgrind gdbserver now supports the GDB remote protocol
packet 'x addr,len' (available in GDB release greater than or equal to 16).</li>
<li>Valgrind now supports zstd compressed debug sections.</li>
<li>The Linux Test Project (ltp) is integrated in the testsuite try 'make ltpchecks'</li>
<li>Added RISCV64 support for Linux. Specifically for the RV64GC instruction set.</li>
<li>Numerous bug fixes for Illumos, in particular fixed a Valgrind crash whenever a signal handler was called.</li>
<li>The --track-fds=yes and --track-fds=all options now treat all inherited file descriptors the same as 0, 1, 2</li>
<li>A new option --modify-fds=high can be used together with --track-fds=yes to create new file descriptors
with the highest possible number (and then decreasing) instead of always using the lowest possible number</li>
<li>There is a change to warnings about calls to pthread_cond_signal and pthread_cond_broadcast
when the associated mutex is unlocked.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Add support for IBM z17 (jsc#PED-13403)</li>
</ul>
