### YJIT
-* Support arm64 / aarch64 on UNIX platforms.
+* YJIT now supports both x86-64 and arm64/aarch64 CPUs on Linux, MacOS, BSD and other UNIX platforms.
+ * This release brings support for Mac M1/M2, AWS Graviton and Raspberry Pi 4 ARM64 processors.
* Building YJIT requires Rust 1.58.0+. [[Feature #18481]]
+ * In order to ensure that CRuby is built with YJIT, please install rustc >= 1.58.0 and
+ run `./configure` with `--enable-yjit`.
+ * Please reach out to the YJIT team should you run into any issues.
* Physical memory for JIT code is lazily allocated. Unlike Ruby 3.1,
the RSS of a Ruby process is minimized because virtual memory pages
allocated by `--yjit-exec-mem-size` will not be mapped to physical
memory pages until actually utilized by JIT code.
* Introduce Code GC that frees all code pages when the memory consumption
by JIT code reaches `--yjit-exec-mem-size`.
-* `RubyVM::YJIT.runtime_stats` returns Code GC metrics in addition to
- existing `inline_code_size` and `outlined_code_size` keys:
- `code_gc_count`, `live_page_count`, `freed_page_count`, and `freed_code_size`.
+ * `RubyVM::YJIT.runtime_stats` returns Code GC metrics in addition to
+ existing `inline_code_size` and `outlined_code_size` keys:
+ `code_gc_count`, `live_page_count`, `freed_page_count`, and `freed_code_size`.
+* Most of the statistics produced by `RubyVM::YJIT.runtime_stats` are now available in release builds.
+ * Simply run ruby with `--yjit-stats` to compute stats (incurs some run-time overhead).
+* YJIT is now optimized to take advantage of object shapes. [[Feature #18776]]
+* Take advantage of finer-grained constant invalidation to invalidate less code when defining new constants. [[Feature #18589]]
