RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

This update adds support for the DWARF5 debug information format, split-dwarf, and GNU DebugFission: * The `eu-readelf` tool can display split unit DIEs when the `--debug-dump=info+` option is used. * The `eu-readelf` tool can inspect separate `.dwo` DWARF "skeleton files" with debug information when the `--dwarf-skeleton` option is used. * The libdw library now tries to resolve the "alt file" containing linked debug information even when it has not yet been set with the `dwarf_set_alt()` function. * The libdw library has been extended with the functions `dwarf_die_addr_die()`, `dwarf_get_units()`, `dwarf_getabbrevattr_data()` and `dwarf_cu_info()`.

Description David Smith 2018-04-10 18:25:58 UTC

We plan to incorporate soon to be released upstream elfutils into RHEL 7.6.

Comment 4 Mark Wielaard 2018-06-12 06:19:23 UTC

We are going with 0.172, which has not functional changes over 0.171, but lots of bug fixes for handling bad DWARF5 data.
