+Version 1.24.0 (2018-02-15)
+==========================
+
+Language
+--------
+- [External `sysv64` ffi is now available.][46528]
+ eg. `extern "sysv64" fn foo () {}`
+
+Compiler
+--------
+- [rustc now uses 16 codegen units by default for release builds.][46910]
+ For the fastest builds, utilize `codegen-units=1`.
+- [Added `armv4t-unknown-linux-gnueabi` target.][47018]
+- [Add `aarch64-unknown-openbsd` support][46760]
+
+Libraries
+---------
+- [`str::find::<char>` now uses memchr.][46735] This should lead to a 10x
+ improvement in performance in the majority of cases.
+- [`OsStr`'s `Debug` implementation is now lossless and consistent
+ with Windows.][46798]
+- [`time::{SystemTime, Instant}` now implement `Hash`.][46828]
+- [impl `From<bool>` for `AtomicBool`][46293]
+- [impl `From<{CString, &CStr}>` for `{Arc<CStr>, Rc<CStr>}`][45990]
+- [impl `From<{OsString, &OsStr}>` for `{Arc<OsStr>, Rc<OsStr>}`][45990]
+- [impl `From<{PathBuf, &Path}>` for `{Arc<Path>, Rc<Path>}`][45990]
+- [float::from_bits now just uses transmute.][46012] This provides
+ some optimisations from LLVM.
+- [Copied `AsciiExt` methods onto `char`][46077]
+- [Remove `T: Sized` requirement on `ptr::is_null()`][46094]
+- [impl `From<RecvError>` for `{TryRecvError, RecvTimeoutError}`][45506]
+- [Optimised `f32::{min, max}` to generate more efficient x86 assembly][47080]
+- [`[u8]::contains` now uses memchr which provides a 3x speed improvement][46713]
+
+Stabilized APIs
+---------------
+- [`RefCell::replace`]
+- [`RefCell::swap`]
+- [`atomic::spin_loop_hint`]
+
+The following functions can now be used in a constant expression.
+eg. `let buffer: [u8; size_of::<usize>()];`, `static COUNTER: AtomicUsize = AtomicUsize::new(1);`
+
+- [`AtomicBool::new`][46287]
+- [`AtomicUsize::new`][46287]
+- [`AtomicIsize::new`][46287]
+- [`AtomicPtr::new`][46287]
+- [`Cell::new`][46287]
+- [`{integer}::min_value`][46287]
+- [`{integer}::max_value`][46287]
+- [`mem::size_of`][46287]
+- [`mem::align_of`][46287]
+- [`ptr::null`][46287]
+- [`ptr::null_mut`][46287]
+- [`RefCell::new`][46287]
+- [`UnsafeCell::new`][46287]
+
+Cargo
+-----
+- [Added a `workspace.default-members` config that
+ overrides implied `--all` in virtual workspaces.][cargo/4743]
+- [Enable incremental by default on development builds.][cargo/4817] Also added
+ configuration keys to `Cargo.toml` and `.cargo/config` to disable on a
+ per-project or global basis respectively.
+
+Misc
+----
+
+Compatibility Notes
+-------------------
+- [Floating point types `Debug` impl now always prints a decimal point.][46831]
+- [`Ipv6Addr` now rejects superfluous `::`'s in IPv6 addresses][46671] This is
+ in accordance with IETF RFC 4291 ยง2.2.
+- [Unwinding will no longer go past FFI boundaries, and will instead abort.][46833]
+- [`Formatter::flags` method is now deprecated.][46284] The `sign_plus`,
+ `sign_minus`, `alternate`, and `sign_aware_zero_pad` should be used instead.
+- [Leading zeros in tuple struct members is now an error][47084]
+- [`column!()` macro is one-based instead of zero-based][46977]
+- [`fmt::Arguments` can no longer be shared across threads][45198]
+- [Access to `#[repr(packed)]` struct fields is now unsafe][44884]
+- [Cargo sets a different working directory for the compiler][cargo/4788]
