systemtap-3.2-8.el7

SystemTap is an instrumentation system for systems running the Linux kernel, which allows developers to write scripts to collect data on the operation of the system.

This update fixes the following bugs:

* Previously, a bug in the SystemTap tapset for the "nfsd.proc.create" probe point prevented this function from being probed. This bug has been fixed and the probe works as intended. (BZ#1572497)

* Previously, a bug in the SystemTap tapset for copying strings copied one more character than required. As a consequence, strings copied by SystemTap from kernel space contained an extraneous random character at the end. This bug has been fixed and SystemTap output does not contain these extraneous characters. (BZ#1572499)

* Because of changes in the kernel related to address space layout randomization (ASLR), kernel backtraces collected by the SystemTap tool were incomplete. SystemTap has been extended to handle this situation. As a result, SystemTap provides complete kernel backtraces. (BZ#1572501)

Users of systemtap are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix these bugs.
