dwarves-dfsg (1.19-1~bpo10+1) buster-backports; urgency=medium * Non-maintainer upload. * Rebuild for buster-backports. -- Luca Boccassi Wed, 10 Feb 2021 09:27:14 +0000 dwarves-dfsg (1.19-1) unstable; urgency=high * New upstream release. Closes: #978691. Changes since 1.18: - Support split BTF, where a main BTF file, vmlinux, can be used to find types and then a kernel module, for instance, can have just what is unique to it - Update libbpf to get the split BTF support and use some of its functions to load BTF and speed up DWARF loading and BTF encoding - Support cross-compiled ELF binaries with different endianness - Support showing typedefs for anonymous types, like structs, unions and enums - Align enumerators - Workaround bugs in the generation of DWARF records for functions in some gcc versions that were causing breakage in the encoding of BTF - Ignore zero-sized ELF symbols instead of erroring out - Handle union forward declaration properly in the BTF loader - Introduce --numeric_version for use in scripts and Makefiles - Try sole pfunct argument as a function name, just like pahole with type names - Speed up pfunct using some of the load techniques used in pahole - Discard CUs after BTF encoding as they're not used anymore, greatly reducing memory usage and speeding up vmlinux BTF encoding - Revamp how per-CPU variables are encoded in BTF - Include BTF info for static functions - Use BTF's string APIs for strings management, greatly improving performance over the tsearch() - Increase size of DWARF lookup hash table, shaving off about 1 second out of about 20 seconds total for Linux BTF dedup - Stop BTF encoding when errors are found in some DWARF CU - Implement --packed, to show just packed structures, for instance, here are the top 5 packed data structures in the Linux kernel - Fix bug in distros such as OpenSUSE:15.2 where DW_AT_alignment isn't defined * Refresh patches. -- Domenico Andreoli Mon, 04 Jan 2021 23:33:54 +0100 dwarves-dfsg (1.18-1) unstable; urgency=medium [ Domenico Andreoli ] * New upstream release (changes since 1.17): - Use type information to pretty print raw data from stdin, all documented in the man pages, further information in the csets. - Store percpu variables in vmlinux BTF. This can be disabled when debugging kernel features being developed to use it. - pahole now should be segfault free when handling gdb test suit DWARF files, including ADA, FORTRAN, rust and dwp compressed files, the later being just flatly refused, that got left for v1.19. - Bail out on partial units for now, avoiding segfaults and providing warning to user, hopefully will be addressed in v1.19. Closes: #977715. * Update Homepage link. Closes: #978708. * Drop debian/compat in favor of Build-Depends: debhelper-compat. * Fix typo in pahole manual page. * Fix escaping in pahole manual page. * Fix debian/copyright lintian errors. * Revert test to a superficial pahole --version until partial units become supported. [ Luca Boccassi ] * Use packaged libbpf instead of the statically linked.

Ts'o ] * New upstream release (changes since 1.12, closes: #931142): - Add support for BTF encoding which is a much more compact way of encoding C type information. It is derived from CTF (Compact C-Type format) and is designed for use with eBPF. - Add initial support for the DWARF DW_TAG_partial_unit - Improve support for pretty-printing unions - Teach pahole to show where a struct was used, via the -I option - Use the running kernel by default when no file name is passed - Improve man pages - Support new BTF deduplication algorithm found the Linux kernel's libbpf library, which allows type information for the kernel to be stored in roughly 1% of the space. - Add a new utility, btfdiff, which compares the pretty-printed type information between two kernel images. - Teach pahole to use the BTF information to pretty print structures using the BTF information using "pahole -F btf", which is much faster than using the Dwarf information. - Infer the __packed__ attribute for structures without alignment holes and which violate the natural types' alignment requirements. - Support DWARF5's DW_AT_alignment tag - Add a --compile option to pfunct which produces compileable output for function prototypes in an object file. - Miscellaneous bug fixes [ Domenico Andreoli ] * Autopkgtest on libc-bin-dbgsym instead of dwarves-dbgsym.
