script:
probe signal.send {

printf("execname: %s\n", pid2execname(sig_pid))
}

The newest frame is find_get_pid

function task2pid:long {pid:long} %{ /*pure*/
    struct task_struct *t = NULL;
    pid_t t_pid  = (pid_t)(long)STAP_ARG_pid;
#if LINUX_VERSION_CODE >= KERNEL_VERSION(2,6,31)
    struct pid *p_pid = find_get_pid(t_pid);
    rcu_read_lock();
    t = pid_task(p_pid, PIDTYPE_PID);
    put_pid(p_pid);
#else
    rcu_read_lock();
#if LINUX_VERSION_CODE >= KERNEL_VERSION(2,6,24)
    t = find_task_by_vpid (t_pid);
#else
    t = find_task_by_pid (t_pid);
#endif /* 2.6.24 */
#endif /* 2.6.31 */
    rcu_read_unlock();
    STAP_RETVALUE = (long)t;
%}


any idea?

Your sample script works for me without panic.

Fedora 18(x86)
kernel-3.9.9-201-fc18.i686
systemtap release 2.3-33-gfb4d4df
