** Description changed:
- xfsprogs missing frame pointer on Oracular despite the build flags
- already contain compiler flags to enable frame pointers.
+ xfsprogs missing frame pointer despite the build flags already contain
+ compiler flags to enable frame pointers.
+
+ [ Impact ]
+
+ In order to help developers with profiling, Ubuntu enabled frame-
+ pointers for packages in the main archive.
+
+ https://ubuntu.com/blog/ubuntu-performance-engineering-with-frame-
+ pointers-by-default
+
+ The `Affects` packages were missed due to the packaging issues. These
+ have been fixed on Oracular and can now be ported to Noble.
+
+ [ Test Plan ]
+
+ Look at the DW_AT_producer in the associated debug ELF file for flags.
+ -fno-omit-frame-pointer should be present after the fix.
+
+ The following scripts can be used as a reference
+ https://gist.github.com/julian-klode/85e55553f85c410a1b856a93dce77208
+ https://gist.github.com/julian-klode/95818246eaef0ac6a54588f7f368e25c
+
+ You can also check the build logs for build flags like `-fno-omit-frame-
+ pointer`.
+
+ [ Where problems could occur ]
+
+ * A distribution-specific patch was applied to fix the build with security
hardening flags enabled.
+ * The packaging fixes have enabled other security hardening flags. This could
have unintended effects.
+
+ [ Other Info ]
+
+ changes in dpkg have been made to make sure frame-pointers are not
+ enabled on s390x and ppc64el.
