  1. I just released drgn 0.0.23! There are lots of new helpers, new examples in the contrib directory, updates for Linux 6.3, 6.4, and Python 3.12, and full s390x support. See the release highlights: drgn.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ and full release notes: github.com/osandov/drgn/releas.

  2. "#drgn is a powerful and flexible [#Linux ] debugger. With drgn, one can write scripts in python to analyze either a live system or a vmcore or a program. […] With drgn, the vmcore analysis seems like natural coding. Having the extensive collection of python libraries also helps, as we can use complex algorithms and data structures to aid with system analysis."

  3. 0.0.22 is out now! @brenns10 contributed my favorite new feature: a method for listing all of the local variables in a stack frame. There are also new helpers for slab and XArrays, plus partial s390x support. See drgn.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ for the rest of the highlights and github.com/osandov/drgn/releas for the full release notes! Have fun !

  4. I just merged support for stack traces on s390x from Sven Schnelle: github.com/osandov/drgn/pull/2. It's really cool seeing drgn ported to architectures that I would've never run into in my day-to-day work.

  5. Who's still using Python 3.6? I really want to drop 3.6 support for drgn (github.com/actions/setup-pytho is the latest reason), but I suspect that wouldn't be nice for those using enterprise Linux distros... Cc @brenns10

  6. Damn, I can't upload these excellent Todd Lockwood dragons in flight, but if you like dragons you need to see them. I *do* prefer the more classic, pre-3rd edition gold dragons, but this is still amazing art.
