Subject: [diamon-discuss] [RELEASE] LTTng modules 2.10.0-rc2, 2.9.3, 2.8.6
Date: Mon, 12 Jun 2017 22:06:22 +0000 (UTC)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <800720578.11295.1497305182681.JavaMail.zimbra@efficios.com> (raw)

The LTTng modules provide Linux kernel tracing capability to the LTTng
tracer toolset.

Those versions are bugfixes in the currently maintained stable
branches of lttng-modules. They mainly contain:

- Fix for the "PID tracker" feature, which should track pgid, which
  corresponds to the notion of process ID in user-space. It is now
  in sync with the feature in the UST tracing domain (application
  tracing),
- Adding a "flush empty" ioctl for snapshots fixes cases where the
  Babeltrace lttng-live reader has issues keeping up with a steady
  stream of useless empty packets. This "flush empty" ioctl is
  introduced in backwards and forwards compatible ways, to ensure
  smooth upgrade within the stable versions of lttng-tools and
  lttng-modules.

Those releases also add support for 4.12 release candidate kernels.

Enjoy!

Mathieu
