LTTng, the Linux Trace Toolkit Next Generation, is a project that aims at
producing a highly efficient full system tracing solution. It is composed of
several components to allow tracing of the kernel, of userspace, trace viewing
and analysis and trace streaming. LTTng is open source software. It is being
actively developed with the community.

Changelog:
* LTTng 0.231 is rebased on kernel 2.6.35.5. All 2.6.35.x LTTng users are
encouraged to upgrade, as this stable kernel release fixes security issues in
the Linux kernel mainline x86-64 32-bit compatibility code as well as a
sigreturn bug on ARM. Please note that the x86-64 security issue affects a
much wider range of kernel versions. For reference: CVE-2010-3081 affects
2.6.26-rc1 to 2.6.36-rc4 [1], CVE-2010-3301 affects 2.6.27-rc1 to
2.6.36-rc4 [2].
