Release 3.20.1

[nr-swilloughby]

3.20.1

Added

• New integration nrpgx5 v1.0.0 to instrument github.com/jackc/pgx/v5.

Changed

• Changed the following TraceOption function to be consistent with their usage and other related identifier names. The old names remain for backward compatibility, but new code should use the new names.
  • WithIgnoredPrefix -> WithIgnoredPrefixes
  • WithPathPrefix -> WithPathPrefixes
• Implemented better handling of Code Level Metrics reporting when the data (e.g., function names) are excessively long, so that those attributes are suppressed rather than being reported with truncated names. Specifically:
  • Attributes with values longer than 255 characters are dropped.
  • No CLM attributes at all will be attached to a trace if the code.function attribute is empty or is longer than 255 characters.
  • No CLM attributes at all will be attached to a trace if both code.namespace and code.filepath are longer than 255 characters.

Support Statement

New Relic recommends that you upgrade the agent regularly to ensure that you’re getting the latest features and performance benefits. Additionally, older releases will no longer be supported when they reach end-of-life.

We also recommend using the latest version of the Go language. At minimum, you should at least be using no version of Go older than what is supported by the Go team themselves.

See the Go Agent EOL Policy for details about supported versions of the Go Agent and third-party components.
