- Resolve errors with linux-6.13 based kernels.
Building trivial 'hello world' failed with:
<command-line>: fatal error: {path_to}stapconf.h: No such file or directory
Attemptng to preserve build directory (-k) caused an infinite loop of:
/usr/src/linux-6.13.4-1/scripts/Makefile.build:370: warning: overriding
recipe for target 'modules.order'
New patch: linux-6.13-fedora-compatibility.patch
New patch: rawhide-6.13-kbuild-compatibility.patch
- Update to version 5.2
Summary of changes:
* SystemTap frontend (stap) changes
- New /* pragma:suffix */ for file-level embedded C code blocks to be
placed near the end of the emitted kernel module C file.
Corresponding macros allow additional C hooks for module init/exit.
- With elfutils 0.192's release on 2024-10-18, the "metadata" based
probes announced in systemtap 5.0 should now be increasingly available.
* SystemTap backend changes
- Numerous kernel portability changes
- "probe never" probes don't emit C code at all any more.
- The standard Fedora spec packaging breaks up the sdt.h header file
and the /usr/bin/dtrace stub-builder script, for those cases where
the macros in sdt.h are sufficient.
- More robust message transport draining during shutdown to prevent
message losses.
* SystemTap tapset changes
- Numerous kernel portability changes
- Added a few functions to inet_sock.stp.
* SystemTap sample scripts
- traceio3.stp: Trace VFS operations by filename regex.
- swapmonitor.stp: Trace swap operations.
