[lttng-dev] Undefined symbol error fix

[lttng-dev] Undefined symbol error fix

[François Belias via lttng-dev]

[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 1050 bytes --]

Hello,

    I am trying to access tracepoints from this website
https://archive.eclipse.org/tracecompass.incubator/doc/org.eclipse.tracecompass.incubator.virtual.machine.analysis.doc.user/Virtual-Machine-Analysis-User-Documentation.html
(kmv_entry, kmv_exit) for my analysis. I added the "addons" folder from the
"addons_vm" branch of this repository:
https://github.com/tahini/lttng-modules to the current version of
lttng-module github repository. However, I am encountering these errors
when compiling
ERROR: modpost: "lttng_tracepoint_probe_register"
[lttng-modules/src/addons/lttng-vmsync-guest.ko] undefined!
ERROR: modpost: "lttng_tracepoint_probe_unregister"
[Desktop/lttng-modules/src/addons/lttng-vmsync-guest.ko] undefined!
ERROR: modpost: "lttng_tracepoint_probe_register"
[Desktop/lttng-modules/src/addons/lttng-vmsync-host.ko] undefined!
ERROR: modpost: "lttng_tracepoint_probe_unregister"
[Desktop/lttng-modules/src/addons/lttng-vmsync-host.ko] undefined!

I am not sure how to resolve this issue. Can someone please help me?

Thanks.

Hi François,

We don't support the forked version of LTTng modules that you are using 
(https://github.com/tahini/lttng-modules)

The canonical upstream version available at 
https://github.com/lttng/lttng-modules has tracepoints such as kvm_entry 
and kvm_exit.

E.g. 
https://github.com/lttng/lttng-modules/blob/06a1fc639b10b40c0ffc412f3fb663632e42dae6/include/instrumentation/events/arch/x86/kvm/trace.h#L20

thanks,
kienan

No, it doesn't. Those tracepoints are custom by the looks of it, and not 
tracepoints that exist in the mainline linux kernel.

thanks,

I think you will also have to modify the Kbuild file so that it builds 
the new modules that are in the addons folder.

I assume there will be other changes to make but to go over all the 
details is beyond the scope of what I think I can effectively help you with.

You may want to consult a resource like 
https://sysprog21.github.io/lkmpg/#functions-available-to-modules to see 
how it works to configure and write kernel modules.

thanks,
kienan

P.S. Could you please keep lttng-dev in CC? thanks
