Hi Daisuke,
The trace.c extension module is no longer functional as of Linux 4.2
due to a huge rework of the ftrace code which, most notably, changed
symbol and structure names from "ftrace..." to "trace...".
Can you take a look at addressing those changes, while maintaining
backwards compatibility?
Thanks,
Dave
Hi Daisuke,
I *think* that the attached patch may be enough to handle the kernel changes.
It uses this construct in the relevant locations to pick the correct version:
MAX(MEMBER_OFFSET("ftrace_event_call", ...),
MEMBER_OFFSET("trace_event_call", ...))
Note that I also added a gdb_set_crash_scope() call to init_offsets()
because there are multiple, different, "struct ring_buffer" declarations in
the kernel, and for whatever reason, crash was initially picking up the wrong
one from "kernel/events/internal.h".
Can you verify that this patch is sufficient and test its functionality?
Or if you prefer, can you come up with your own solution?
Thanks,
Dave
