Hello,
I want to run system tap with user profiling which requires utrace and uprobes support from the kernel.
Are there any SUSE kernels which support this either for SLES or open suse?
Cheers,
Ivan
you could compile your own kernel and the support you need. If you have never done this there are tons of readmes and walkthroughs. I would suggest making them modules unless you know they need to be built into the kernel.
you can check if the kernel(s) you have installed are configured to support these features by searching the config file(s).
grep -i utrace /boot/config*
as far as my own kernel, i have seen readmes and walkthroughs but none of them tell how to build the debuginfo and kernel sources, kernel headers package for the new kernel so i can install the matching packages required for debugging with systemtap.
Cheers,
Ivan
