Topic

Updated systemtap packages that resolve two bugs are now available for Red Hat
Enterprise Linux 5.

Description

SystemTap is an instrumentation system for systems running the Linux kernel,
version 2.6. Developers can write scripts to collect data on the operation of
the system.

This update resolves the following bugs:

  • due to a string copy being used instead of a formatted string copy, the

argstring of the socketpair system call had a wrong "UNKNOWN VALUE". This issue
is now resolved. (BZ#617099)

  • previously, a change in register contents (such as $return) on Itanium caused

a crash due to a flaw in the way the values in the memory were set. Now, no
crash happens when register contents change. (BZ#617100)

All SystemTap users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix
these bugs.

Solution

Before applying this update, make sure all previously-released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.

This update is available via the Red Hat Network. Details on how to
use the Red Hat Network to apply this update are available at
