It seems a generic issue:

$ sudo trace-cmd record -e ext4:* ls
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/ext4/*/filter
systemd-private-6pVB5L	systemd-private-KdpFqS	trace.dat.cpu0	trace.dat.cpu2
systemd-private-9hedRD	trace.dat		trace.dat.cpu1	trace.dat.cpu3
trace-cmd: Interrupted system call
   recorder error in splice input
trace-cmd: Interrupted system call
   recorder error in splice input
trace-cmd: Interrupted system call
   recorder error in splice input
trace-cmd: Interrupted system call
   recorder error in splice input
Kernel buffer statistics:
   Note: "entries" are the entries left in the kernel ring buffer and 
are not
         recorded in the trace data. They should all be zero.

I got the modules properly signed so only OOT taint is set and it still 
does not work.

Arend
