v1.4.63

ServiceRadar v1.4.63

netprobe 0.2.62 loads again on 6.8 kernels, newly published
add-on releases are imported into the catalog by default, and
the anomaly add-on's drift detector no longer opens an episode
on a short spike or holds one open for hours.

Whats New

1.4.63

• netprobe 0.2.62: the TCP attribution tracepoint failed the
  6.8 verifier (combined stack size of 2 calls is 544), so
  every release since v1.4.52 shipped a netprobe that could not
  start on those kernels. Adding the _rhel9 layout variant had
  given the shared event emitter a second caller and LLVM
  stopped inlining it. The emitter's frame is trimmed and every
  program chain now fits in 416 of the 512 byte BPF stack. A
  static stack-depth gate on the built object
  (//rust/netprobe:ebpf_stack_depth_test) runs in make test
  so the regression cannot ship silently again (PR #422, fixes
  #405).
• Add-ons: webNg.nativeAddonImport.autoSyncEnabled now
  defaults to true, so a newly published add-on release is
  imported into the catalog without operator action. Import
  only stages the package; approval stays opt-in
  (autoApproveAddonIds, empty by default) and remains the
  security boundary. The three keys are documented in the chart
  README (PR #421).
• anomaly add-on 0.3.8: drift detection clips each sample's
  contribution to the CUSUM accumulator (drift_residual_clip,
  default 1.5 sigma), so confirming a sustained drift needs at
  least twelve samples of evidence instead of three large ones.
  Effect size is the mean of the unclipped residuals over the
  run, and an open episode recovers when the accumulator stops
  re-crossing its threshold rather than after thirty
  consecutive quiet samples. Drift findings carry
  drift_target, drift_scale and drift_shift_sigma
  (PR #420).
• Web: a drift finding's chart draws the episode window, the
  baseline the detector compared against and the sustained
  level the series moved to, with the focus window widened to
  show the whole episode. Findings from add-ons older than
  0.3.8 keep the plain marker (PR #423).
• Docs: the broken link that failed every Publish Docs run
  since September 11 is fixed, and the anomaly engine blog post
  moved to the website (PRs #417, #418).

Upgrade Notes

• Agents on 6.8 kernels whose netprobe rollout is paused on
  0.2.61 pick up 0.2.62 through the normal rollout once it is
  imported and approved; the paused rollout is superseded.
• An installation that depended on add-on import being off must
  now set webNg.nativeAddonImport.autoSyncEnabled: false
  explicitly. Import alone approves nothing and changes nothing
  on an agent.
