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-4.4-3.el8
Doc Type: Enhancement
Doc Text:
.SystemTap rebased to version 4.4 The SystemTap instrumentation tool has been updated to version 4.4, which provides multiple bug fixes and enhancements. Notable changes include: * Performance and stability improvements to user-space probing. * Users can now access implicit thread local storage variables on these architectures: AMD64, Intel 64, IBM Z, the little-endian variant of IBM Power Systems. * Initial support for processing of floating point values. * Improved concurrency for scripts using global variables. The locks required to protect concurrent access to global variables have been optimized so that they span the smallest possible critical region. * New syntax for defining aliases with both a prologue and an epilogue. * New `@probewrite` predicate. * `syscall` arguments are writable again. For further information about notable changes, read the link:https://sourceware.org/pipermail/systemtap/2020q4/027074.html[upstream release notes] before updating.

> which should be compliant with our guidelines for architecture code names

I'll have to take your word for it.  I would just use the identifiers in
the source code or diagnostic messages. :-)
