for convenience, the diff for the noble upload. we'll do a binary copy
for the upload to -proposed, because the package needs to reach the
security pocket as well.


** Patch added: "dpkg.debdiff"
   
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dpkg/+bug/2064539/+attachment/5801859/+files/dpkg.debdiff

** Description changed:

  Power's Linux ABIs all require an explicit call chain be stored on the call 
stack frames which are all accessible via the stack pointer.
  Therefore, having a (soft/simulated) frame pointer does not improve 
backtraces at all on Power.
  
  However, forcing a frame pointer via the -fno-omit-frame-pointer option 
negatively affects performance for multiple reasons: extra prologue/epilogue 
overhead and fewer shrink-wrapping opportunities.
  Given -fno-omit-frame-pointer does not provide any improvements (backtraces 
or otherwise) and only reduces performance, -fno-omit-frame-pointers should not 
be used on Power.
+ 
+ SRU:
+ 
+ these changes were implemented during the opening of the oracular
+ series. The very same changes are backported to 24.04 LTS. These only
+ affect the ppc64el and s390x architectures, for other architectures it's
+ a no-change upload.
+ 
+ We didn't see any fallout for these changes during the development on
+ the oracular series, and therefore don't expect any fallout or
+ regressions in 24.04 LTS either.
