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.

Fixed In Version: systemtap-4.3-4.el8
Doc Type: Enhancement
Doc Text:
.SystemTap rebased to version 4.3 The SystemTap instrumentation tool has been updated to version 4.3, which provides multiple bug fixes and enhancements. Notable changes include: * Userspace probes can be targeted by hexadecimal `buildid` from `readelf -n`. This alternative to a path name enables matching binaries to be probed under any name, and thus allows a single script to target a range of different versions. This feature works well in conjunction with the elfutils `debuginfod` server. * Script functions can use probe `$context` variables to access variables in the probed location, which allows the SystemTap scripts to use common logic to work with a variety of probes. * The `stapbpf` program improvements, including try-catch statements, and error probes, have been made to enable proper error tolerance in scripts running on the BPF backend. For further information about notable changes, read the link:https://sourceware.org/pipermail/systemtap/2020q2/026923.html[upstream release notes] before updating.
