The sos team is pleased to announce the release of sos-4.5.2. This release follows our recent changes to adopt a faster release cadence, and as such is smaller in scope than previous releases for the project. The next release is slated for April 27.

Global Changes

  • Several stale dependencies have been dropped from the rpm packaging
  • sos.spec has been migrated to using SPDX license syntax
  • RPM builds of sos will now include a tmpfiles configuration so skip over /var/tmp/sos*, thus avoiding constant AVC errors from the service

Report Changes

  • New option journal-size: controls how large sos will collect journal output of. Default is 100MB
  • New option low-priority: will now cause sos to attempt to self-constrain its impact on the system.
    • This option currently attempts to set the sos process to an idle IO class, and sets our niceness to 19
  • New preset minimal: uses the low-priority option as well as reducing plugin timeouts and file collection sizes
  • Archive contents are now ordered such that version.txt, manifest.json, and sos_logs/ are now first in the tarball, which should assist with any in-memory handling of tarballs via automation
  • Fixed a bug that would cause double logging if a preset set verbosity levels

Plugin Changes

  • The frr plugin will now collect command output from a container if that is how it is deployed

  • The unpackaged plugin will now list unpackaged symlinks and not the symlink's target

  • The iprconfig plugin is now gated by the sg kernel mod being loaded

  • Fixed a bug that would cause the CosLogs variant to be loaded for every distribution

  • The microshift plugin has been updated to use oc get commands

  • Plugin.do_file_sub() for plugin post-processing is now always case-insensitive in pattern matching

Cleaner Changes

  • Fix a bug where the finalizing the archive would fail if cleaner was instructed to obfuscate the keyword tmp
