- Tentatively scheduled as base version for RHEL4-U5.
- Fix for the "irq" command when run on 2.6.17 and later kernels,
which
replaced the hw_interrupt_type structure with the irq_chip
structure.
Without the patch, the command would fail with the error
message
"irq: invalid structure member offset: irq_desc_t_handler".

- Phased in the first stage of support for the use of dwarf CFI
data to
produce accurate x86_64 back traces, and to eventually improve
the
reliability of x86 back traces. The code is very much
still under
development, and is not turned on as of yet; for x86_64
only, its
usage can be toggled on and off with the set command, by
entering
"set unwind on" or "set unwind off". It will only
work if dwarf CFI
information exists in the kernel memory, or if the vmlinux
file
contains an .eh_frame section. Expect multiple iterations
before
this feature is ready for prime-time.

- Prevents stream of invalid "WARNING: possibly bogus exception
frame"
messages during initialization when run agains x86_64 xen
dumpfiles
created with the new "xm dump-core" facility. (anderson@xxxxxxxxxx)
- For for "struct -o" option to print structure member offsets if
the
member type is a function pointer. (anderson@xxxxxxxxxx)
