Topic

Updated strace packages that fix a bug are now available for Red Hat Enterprise
Linux 6.

Description

The strace packages provide an utility to intercept and record the system calls
called and received by a running process. The strace utility can print a record
of each system call, its arguments, and its return value. The strace utility is
useful for diagnosing, debugging, and instructional purposes.

This update fixes the following bug:

  • Previously, the strace utility used magic breakpoints in the process startup

code to detect and control process startup. Consequently, under certain
circumstances, the %ebx register could be corrupted around the clone syscall
within the libc_fork() function, which could cause an application to terminate
unexpectedly with a segmentation fault while under strace control. This update
changes strace to use the TRACE{FORK,VFORK,CLONE} ptrace capabilities which
provide a cleaner, less error-prone interface to monitor and control process
startup when tracing, thus preventing this bug. (BZ#849052)

All users of strace are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix
this bug.

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
