- Fixes for CVE-2009-2911, BNC#548361

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Oct  2 18:57:14 CEST 2009 - tonyj@suse.de

- updated to version 1.0:
 * SystemTap frontend (stap) changes
   - EXPERIMENTAL support for unprivileged users.
   - -a ARCH allows cross compiling of scripts, stap-start-server arguments
     extended to support starting a cross compiling server
   - Change notion of architecture to be same as kernels
   - Support output file switching by SIGUSR2
   - New experimental transport mechanism using ftrace's ring_buffer
   - Reduction in memory consumption for scripts using many uprobes
   - Support for recognizing DW_OP_{stack,implicit}_value DWARF expressions
 * SystemTap script language changes
   - Dwarf probes now support C++ scopes and so can be limited to classes or
    namespaces.
   - Preprocessor support for || and &&
   - Probe alias names may be overloaded (multiple aliases of same name)
 * SystemTap tapset changes
   - Enabling semaphore now used to reduce computation overhead of dorman
     process().mark() probes.
   - Many functions marked as usable by unprivileged users (return global info
     or specific to user process).
   - New netdev tapset probe points for monitoring network traffic and device 
     configurations.
   - New task_backtrace function returns the current hex backtrace of any
     arbitrary task in the system.
   - Function is_myproc returns whether the current process is owned by user
     which started systemtap script.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Aug 13 15:55:14 CEST 2009 - tiwai@suse.de

- updated to version 0.9.9:
 * Systemwide kernel .function.return (kretprobe) maxactive overridden
   with -DKRETACTIVE=nnn parameter.
 * performance improvement in translation pass 2
 * new DW_OP_call_frame_CFA handling with elfutils 0.142
 * dwarf probes now show parameters and local variables in the verbose
  listing mode (-L)
 * symbol aliases are now resolved to their canonical dwarf names
 * The syntax for dereferencing $target variables and @cast() gained new
  capabilities
 * For reading all probe variables, kernel.mark now supports $$vars and
  $$parms, and process.syscall now supports $$vars.
 * SNMP tapset for many network statistics
 * dentry tapset to map kernel VFS directory entries to file or full
  path names: d_path(), d_name() and reverse_path_walk().
 * SystemTap now has userspace markers in its own binaries
 * More to see in NEWS
