gdb used to work around this by the following snippet [1]: /* UST puts a "struct tracepoint" in the global namespace, which conflicts with our tracepoint. Arguably, being a library, it shouldn't take ownership of such a generic name. We work around it here. */ #define tracepoint ust_tracepoint #include <ust/ust.h> #undef tracepoint I am not sure if it is still working with lttng 2.x API.
