Hi Milian,

I suspect you need to use the same compiler (a compiler that supports retpoline
Spectre v2 mitigation) to compile lttng-modules as was used to compile your kernel.

I suspect the kernel rejects those modules because they are compiled with a
different compiler than your Linux kernel.

Thanks,

Mathieu
