Subject: User-level callee probe error
Date: Fri, 10 Sep 2021 15:54:17 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <HAQ8ZQ.QS99YB3553LF3@scalecomputing.com> (raw)

 Hello!

I'm having some issues using the "callee" probe when user-level 
tracing. I wrote a toy program that places several callees inside the 
main function. Here's the source for toy.cpp:

#include <iostream>

int square(const int x)
{
  return x * x;
}

int triple(const int x)
{
  return 3 * x;
}

int lastdigit10(const int x)
{
  return x % 10;
}

int main(int argc, char* argv[])
{
  const int a = 1;
  const int y = triple(a);
  const int z = square(y);
  std::cout << "Result: " << lastdigit10(z) + 1 << std::endl;
  return 0;
}

The toy program compiles and runs as expected:

$ g++ -g -Wall toy.cpp -o toy
$ ./toy
Result: 10
$

I can furthermore see call, exported, and return probes corresponding 
to the main function and individual callees:

$ sudo stap -l 'process("toy").function("main").*'
process("/home/build/stap_tutorial/toy").function("main@/home/build/stap_tutorial/toy.cpp:18").call
process("/home/build/stap_tutorial/toy").function("main@/home/build/stap_tutorial/toy.cpp:18").exportedprocess("/home/build/stap_tutorial/toy").function("main@/home/build/stap_tutorial/toy.cpp:18").return
$ sudo stap -l 'process("toy").function("square").*'
process("/home/build/stap_tutorial/toy").function("square@/home/build/stap_tutorial/toy.cpp:3").call
process("/home/build/stap_tutorial/toy").function("square@/home/build/stap_tutorial/toy.cpp:3").exported
process("/home/build/stap_tutorial/toy").function("square@/home/build/stap_tutorial/toy.cpp:3").return


However, when probing for callees, I run into an error:
$ sudo stap -v -e 'probe process("toy").function("main").callees 
{println ("test")}'
Pass 1: parsed user script and 478 library scripts using

ms.

I also get the same error when repacing 'callees' with 'callee("*")' or 
even 'callee("square")'. Do you know what could be causing this?

Thank you!
