Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: linux-image-debug-generic
Hi,
I wanted to install this package in order to use Systemtap.
Well, just installing this package does not work, since systemtap
doesn't find the debug file.
However, a simple link into the /boot dir fixes the problem:
vmlinux-2.6.24-19-generic -> vmlinux-debug-2.6.24-19-generic
Can you fix the package? Or fix the systemtap one?
As I said currently systemtap is not usable, if you don't make this link
the error is:
semantic error: libdwfl failure (missing kernel debuginfo): No such file or
directory while resolving probe point kernel.function("vfs_read").return
semantic error: no match while resolving probe point
kernel.function("vfs_write").return
Pass 2: analysis failed. Try again with more '-v' (verbose) options.
