A root session daemon _and_ "tracing" group user membership are required to trace the kernel. --- src/common/error.c | 2 +- - [ ERROR_INDEX(LTTNG_ERR_NEED_ROOT_SESSIOND) ] = "Tracing the kernel requires a root lttng-sessiond daemon or \"tracing\" group user membership", + [ ERROR_INDEX(LTTNG_ERR_NEED_ROOT_SESSIOND) ] = "Tracing the kernel requires a root lttng-sessiond daemon and \"tracing\" group user membership", -- ------------------------------ Unless there's been a change in the code, that is just not true. You can trace the kernel just fine without 'tracing' group membership, as long as you have sudo privileges (and can thus call 'sudo -H lttng'). The root daemon is necessary either way: the text should just read "Tracing the kernel requires a root lttng-sessiond daemon". Daniel U.
