Hi all. I've just released gperftools 2.10.

Here are notable changes:

* Matt T. Proud contributed documentation fix to call Go programming language by it's true name instead of golang.
* Robert Scott contributed debugallocator feature to use readable (PROT_READ) fence pages. This is activated by TCMALLOC_PAGE_FENCE_READABLE environment variable.
* User stdpain contributed a fix for cmake detection of libunwind.
* Natale Patriciello contributed fix for OSX Monterey support.
* Volodymyr Nikolaichuk contributed support for returning memory back to the OS by using mmap with MAP_FIXED and PROT_NONE. It is off by default and enabled by preprocessor define: FREE_MMAP_PROT_NONE. This should help OSes that don't support Linux-style madvise MADV_DONTNEED or BSD-style MADV_FREE.
* Jingyun Hua has contributed basic support for LoongArch.
* Github issue #1338 of failing to build on some recent musl versions has been fixed.
* Github issue #1321 of failing to ship cmake bits with .tar.gz archive has been fixed.

Have a nice day!
