    * Version 1.0
    The API of six libraries (libpmem, libpmemblk, libpmemlog,
    libpmemobj, libvmem, libvmmalloc) is complete and stable.
    The on-media layout of persistent memory pools will be maintained
    from this point, and if changed it will be backward compatible.
    Man pages are all complete.
    This release has been validated to "Production quality".

    For the purpose of new features planned for next releases of NVML
    there have been some API modifications made:
            - pmem: pmem_map replaced with pmem_map_file
            - log/blk: 'off_t' substituted with 'long long'
            - obj: type numbers extended to 64-bit
            - obj: new entry points and macros added:
              pmemobj_tx_errno, pmemobj_tx_lock, pmemobj_mutex_timedlock,
              TX_ADD_DIRECT, TX_ADD_FIELD_DIRECT, TX_SET_DIRECT

    Other key changes since version 0.4 include:
            - common: updated/fixed installation scripts
            - common: eliminated dependency on libuuid
            - pmem: CPU features/ISA detection using CPUID
            - obj: improved error handling
            - obj: atomic allocation fails if constructor returns error
            - obj: multiple performance optimizations
            - obj: object store refactoring
            - obj: additional examples and benchmarks

    This release also introduces a prototype implementation
    of C++ bindings for libpmemobj.  Note that C++ API is still
    experimental and should not be used in production environments.
