Subject: [Bug translator/31404] New: Systemtap unable to find kernel.trace("*") probe points on Fedora rawhide Linux 6.8 kernels
Date: Wed, 21 Feb 2024 14:47:04 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <bug-31404-6586@http.sourceware.org/bugzilla/> (raw)

https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=31404

            Bug ID: 31404
           Summary: Systemtap unable to find kernel.trace("*") probe
                    points on Fedora rawhide Linux 6.8 kernels
           Product: systemtap
           Version: unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: translator
          Assignee: systemtap at sourceware dot org
          Reporter: wcohen at redhat dot com
  Target Milestone: ---

When reviewing the "make installcheck" results on Fedora rawhide.  I found that
a number of the tests using the tracepoint probe points were failing.  For
example:

Running
/home/wcohen/systemtap_write/systemtap/testsuite/systemtap.base/bz1027459.exp
...
spawn stap -wP
/home/wcohen/systemtap_write/systemtap/testsuite/systemtap.base/bz1027459.stp
semantic error: while resolving probe point: identifier 'kernel' at
/home/wcohen/systemtap_write/install/share/systemtap/tapset/linux/sysc_clone.stp:131:26
        source: probe tp_syscall.clone = kernel.trace("sys_enter")
                                         ^

semantic error: no match

The probe point can be seen with "perf list tracepoint", but doesn't show up
with systemtap:

[wcohen@rawhide systemtap]$ uname -a
Linux rawhide 6.8.0-0.rc5.41.fc41.x86_64 #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Mon Feb 19
14:05:40 UTC 2024 x86_64 GNU/Linux
[wcohen@rawhide systemtap]$ sudo perf list tracepoint |grep raw
[sudo] password for wcohen: 
  raw_syscalls:sys_enter                             [Tracepoint event]
  raw_syscalls:sys_exit                              [Tracepoint event]
[wcohen@rawhide systemtap]$ ../install/bin/stap  -L 'kernel.trace("sys_enter")'
[wcohen@rawhide systemtap]$ 

On Fedora 39 systemtap can find the tracepoints:

wcohen@fedora39:~/systemtap_write/systemtap$ uname -a
Linux fedora39 6.7.5-200.fc39.x86_64 #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Sat Feb 17 17:20:08

wcohen@fedora39:~/systemtap_write/systemtap$ sudo perf list tracepoint |grep
raw
  raw_syscalls:sys_enter                             [Tracepoint event]
  raw_syscalls:sys_exit                              [Tracepoint event]
wcohen@fedora39:~/systemtap_write/systemtap$ ../install/bin/stap  -L
'kernel.trace("sys_enter")'
kernel.trace("raw_syscalls:sys_enter") $regs:struct pt_regs* $id:long int
