Release notes for 2.76 - 2025-04-13 09:47:12 -0700

  • More libpsx and psx Go package mechanism fixes
    • Address an arm64 (aarch64) libpsx issue seen with Tracee.
      • Note, 2.75 should have fixed the tracee issue 4678 but the above issue emerged from their extensive testing.
  • More architectures supported: of the many architectures Debian builds for, we think only alpha and sparc64 have problems. Unable to construct qemu-*-system images with which to debug these. If anyone has a recipe for that that works for Fedora as a base platform, please provide details...
  • To make the various .so files continue to be runnable as standalone programs added another workaround for glibc.
    • _IO_stdin_used needs to be weakly defined to make puts() and friends work. Also updated the Stackoverflow answer to include that detail.
  • Made a new man page cap_text_formats(7). This makes it possible to separate the tool man pages from the developer man pages. I believe this was the second time this was requested
    • Some man page cross linking fixes as well.
  • Dropped Make.Rules definition of SYSTEM_HEADERS
  • Removed a spurious debugging printf() from setcap tool.
  • Removed cap_ workarounds for go.dev cap package examples. The website bugs have been resolved: go/issues/70611; go/issues/70630.
  • Added a Makefile to the contrib/seccomp example.
