- device_state_entry::value and device_state_entry::set_value now do everything except the register lookup, allowing them to be made public. The debugger expression engine now uses these.
- device_state_entry::dvalue and device_state_entry::set_dvalue have also been made public, theoretically permitting outside code layers to inspect and modify floating-point registers.
- The double specialization of device_pseudo_state_register (now renamed device_functional_state_register) has been added to the core.
- state_add now has an additional specialization that takes both a reference and a write function, using the former for reads only.
- state_max_length has been eliminated in favor of obtaining the relevant info through device_state_entry::max_length.
- The debugger state view no longer adds "flags" as "???" if none have been registered.
- set_state_string has been removed. It was never properly implemented, and it is difficult to see how it could have been done in a useful and consistent way.
- state_find_entry and its typical callers state_int and set_state_int have been inlined for some hopeful efficiency gains.

Certain things are not considered "creative works" under copyright law,
making them ineligible for copyright protection. This includes pinouts
(facts), descriptions of circuits (utilitarian), integrated circuit
lithography masks (utilitarian, but there's a separate field of IP law
protecting them), and character shapes (utilitarian).
However, many of these descriptions are substantial enough to be treated
creative works. A number of them include suggested applications. There
are situations where reproducing the descriptions may be permitted, for
example:
* The publisher may permit reproducing the entire datasheet for
reference.
* In some jurisdictions, fair use doctrine may allow the description to
be quoted in its entirety in a larger creative work (e.g. in a
research paper, patent application, or an original description of a
circuit utilising the device).
* Some jurisdictions allow reproduction of no more than 50% of a
creative work for inclusion in teaching materials.
I am not confident that these soure code comments qualify as a situation
where the long-form descriptions can be copied verbatim lawfully,
especially without reproducing copyright notices for them. If you want
long form plain language descriptions in the comments, you need to write
them yourself. That way, you will be the copyright holder of the
creative work, and you can make it availble under a permissive or
"copyleft" license.
