-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2024-99236e13b7 2024-03-23 00:20:56.400877 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : python-drgn Product : Fedora 40 Version : 0.0.26 Release : 1.fc40 URL : https://github.com/osandov/drgn Summary : Programmable debugger Description : drgn (pronounced "dragon") is a debugger with an emphasis on programmability. drgn exposes the types and variables in a program for easy, expressive scripting in Python.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information:
This release adds several helpers, support for DWARF package files, the fsrefs.py tool, and a few other improvements and bug fixes. New features: The print_dmesg() helper was added to drgn.helpers.linux.printk. It is a shortcut for printing the contents of the kernel log buffer. The idr_for_each_entry() helper was added to drgn.helpers.linux.idr. Helpers for the Linux kernel's plist (priority-sorted list) data structure were added in drgn.helpers.linux.plist. Plists are used by futexes, real-time scheduling classes, and swap. The stack_depot_fetch() helper was added in drgn.helpers.linux.stackdepot. It gets a stack trace from the stack depot, which is used by KASAN and other debugging tools in the kernel to store unique stack traces. Contributed by Peter Collingbourne. drgn.Program.stack_trace_from_pcs() was added. It creates a drgn.StackTrace from a list of program counters. Contributed by Peter Collingbourne. Support for Linux 6.8 was added. The for_each_mount() and path_lookup() helpers from drgn.helpers.linux.fs were updated for Linux 6.8. The for_each_mount() update was contributed by Johannes Thumshirn. DWARF package (.dwp) files are now supported when built with elfutils >= 0.191. drgn.reinterpret() can now be used for primitive scalar values (but you usually want drgn.cast()). drgn now transparently supports reading from pointers using AArch64's Top Byte Ignore (TBI) feature. Contributed by Peter Collingbourne. Bug fixes: The print_annotated_stack() helper from drgn.helpers.common.stack was made more robust against corrupted stack traces. A memory leak when handling types with C++ template parameters was fixed. Types from type units from split DWARF files can now be searched by name. Other improvements: drgn.FaultError is now imported in the CLI by default. drgn.FaultErrors caused by invalid physical addresses will now indicate that the address was physical. Build errors when compiling against Python 3.13 alpha 4 were fixed. Tools: tools/fsrefs.py was added. It searches for everything in the kernel referencing a file or filesystem. contrib directory: contrib/btrfs_orphan_subvolumes.py was added. It looks for Btrfs subvolumes that have been deleted but not yet cleaned up. contrib/dm_crypt_key.py was added. It reads the master key of a dm-crypt device from kernel memory (currently only if the encryption mode is aes -xts-plain64). -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog:
