Because master is currently in feature freeze for the 2.3-rc cycle, and as a maintainer I'm not keeping any devel/staging branch: this responsibility currently belongs to the contributors. The new features flow into master between the end of the release candidate cycle (final version) and the start of the next rc cycle. See the recent discussion on the release process on lttng-dev for more details. Feedback is welcome. > (Also, does this imply that the malloc patch made it into the > 2.3 release ?) Yes, the malloc patch made it into the 2.3 release mainly because it's fixing incomplete coverage of the already existing malloc/free-related instrumentation. The difference with pthread instrumentation is that it's really a new feature in every possible sense of the term: new kind of library functions are instrumented, new problems may arise, new files are added, new shared objects are added. This is exactly what we don't want to add during rc. Please note that as soon as you get my acked-by, you can consider this patch accepted. It's just that we don't have the staging branches to keep them around, nor the manpower to maintain a 3rd branch in parallel with the current stable+rc. Thoughts ?
