Bug Fixes

  • Many minor bugfixes

New and updated features

  • Container support: sysdig now supports Docker, LXC and libvirt-lxc containers, with several sub-features described below and in the documentation
  • supports to an alternate /proc file system tree (useful in containers) by setting the environment variable SYSDIG_HOST_ROOT
  • supports parsing network connections from /proc from a network namespace different than the global one
  • container information is available in the chisel API (thread table)
  • -pc and -pcontainer will use a container-friendly output format for events
  • Automated Docker builds for running sysdig: https://registry.hub.docker.com/u/sysdig/sysdig/
  • sysdig-probe-loader: new script included with sysdig to facilitate loading the sysdig-probe module in atypic environments such as containers
  • build-sysdig-probe-binaries: new script to prebuild sysdig-probe binaries for a specific set of kernel configurations (currently CoreOS) and upload them to S3 so that they can be downloaded at runtime on environments that don't ship kernel headers
