- Update to version 5.1
Summary of changes:
* SystemTap frontend (stap) changes
- An experimental "--build-as=USER" flag to reduce privilege during
script compilation, which is a security improvement effort.
- New probe-points for userland hardware breakpoints/watchpoints
targeting processes (PR31180):
probe process.data(ADDRESS).write
probe process.data(ADDRESS).rw
probe process.data(ADDRESS).length(LEN).write
probe process.data(ADDRESS).length(LEN).rw
- Support for stap --remote=bpf.
- Improved searching heuristics for probing symbol names with/without
symbol-version suffixes and with/without weak names.
- Made long-running debuginfod downloads more cleanly interruptible.
- Improved stap-prep heuristics for finding debuginfo for "-rt"
(real-time) kernels.
* SystemTap backend changes
- Dynamic namespace switching for processes targeted via "-x PID",
allowing processes running within containers to be probed.
- Improved message transport robustness for heavy traffic (individual
messages spanning pages) and for short runs (avoiding loss of
last-gasp messages).
- Added MTAG macro on several internal memory allocation routines
to improve leak warnings. Corrected a bunch of leaks.
- "stap -t" now reports module initialization timings too.
- Ported runtime for GCC14 compatibility, with its more recent C
dialect warnings.
- Support for DW_OP_bra in DWARF location lists, which makes a few
more $context variables accessible to systemtap.
* SystemTap tapset changes
- Portability fixes for more recent kernels, as always.
- set_kernel_string* tapset functions improved range checking.
- print_ubacktrace_fileline() works with PIE binaries.
- Many portability improvements and some fixes in the testsuite.
- Enhancements for the tcp, nfs, memory tapsets.
