# Version 21.2.1.0
Version 21.0.1 is a minor gem5 release consisting of bug fixes. The 21.0.1 release:
* Fixes a bug in which [a RCV instruction is wrongly regarded as a branch](https://gem5.atlassian.net/browse/GEM5-1137).
* Removes outdated and incomplete standard library documentation.
Users wishing to learn more about the gem5 standard library should consult materials [on the gem5 website](https://www.gem5.org/documentation/gem5-stdlib/overview).
* Adds a VirtIO entropy device (VirtIORng) to RISC-V.
Without this, [RISCV Disk images can take considerable time to boot and occasionally do so in error](https://gem5.atlassian.net/browse/GEM5-1151).
* Removes the 'typing.final' decorator from the standard library.
'typing.final' was introduced in Python 3.8, but v21.2 of gem5 supports Python 3.6.
* Fixes the broken NPB stdlib example test.
