# Verion 24.1
## User facing changes
* The [behavior of the`StridePrefetcher` has been altered](https://github.com/gem5/gem5/pull/1449) as follows:
* The addresses used to compute the stride has been changed from word aligned addresses to cache line aligned addresses.
* It returns if the stride does not match, as opposed to issuing prefetching using the new stride --- the previous, incorrect behavior.
* Returns if the new stride is 0, indicating multiple reads from the same cache line.
# Version 24.0
gem5 Version 24.0 is the first major release of 2024.
