AI causation engine

  • Resolved issue in which the creation of outgoing Dynatrace tags when a PurePath trace was started with a custom tag sometimes led to a crash when creation was triggered by several threads in parallel. (OA-5474)
  • Corrected processing of traceid/spanid in cases when they differ between Dynatrace tag (preferred source) and traceparent, which led to path stitching problems. (ONE-76061)

All modules

  • Fixed DataStorage (memory dumps & crash reports) functionality for applications running inside containers, when Full-Stack Monitoring OneAgent is deployed via container with the volume storage. (ONE-75818)
  • CloudEvents rules that have no matcher are now skipped and do not produce an event. (ONE-76084)

OS module

  • In some cases, OneAgent on AIX was not able to read the process command line for a newly created process, resulting in the process being grouped incorrectly. Now all data for the process is updated in the next cycle. (APM-371697)
  • Fixed high CPU usage of OneAgent host monitoring process caused by grouping short-lived processes to the parent process. (APM-377962)

  • Improved instrumention of `trait` to prevent possible occurrence of loops in certain cases. (ONE-75371)
  • Fixed issue with OneAgent injection into PHP 8.1 on PaaS setups. (OA-1419)
  • To avoid undefined behavior, stack trace PHP is no longer captured when there's heap overflow. (ONE-75661)

Go

  • Fixed crash in OpenTelemetry sensor upon reading input parameters of started span. (OA-5626)
  • Fixed a problem in which an uninitialized client connection object was used to perform a gRPC call, resulting in a Go crash. (ONE-76130)
