scheduler.stp scheduler.migrate having problems on 2.6.20-1


While it seems to find the pull_task kernel function, I seem to be unable to access the internal variables from that function. I was hoping to use this to look at how the kernel moves around processes in a 4 processor dual core (8 CPU) per node cluster I'm running on. I'm looking to experiment with whether the kernel really is giving processes the memory that is closest to which CPU it has chosen to run a process on. This may not be the right way (would love some comments) but regardless it doesn't seem to be working on my system:

Pass 1: parsed user script and 54 library script(s) in 160usr/10sys/177real ms.
semantic error: failed to retrieve location attribute for local 'p' (dieoffset: 0x2ae510): identifier '$p' at /usr/local/share/systemtap/tapset/scheduler.stp:93:12
semantic error: failed to retrieve location attribute for local 'p' (dieoffset: 0x2ae510): identifier '$p' at /usr/local/share/systemtap/tapset/scheduler.stp:94:16
semantic error: failed to retrieve location attribute for local 'this_cpu' (dieoffset: 0x2ae501): identifier '$this_cpu' at /usr/local/share/systemtap/tapset/scheduler.stp:95:14
Pass 2: analyzed script: 2 probe(s), 0 function(s), 0 embed(s), 0 global(s) in 240usr/80sys/311real ms.
Pass 2: analysis failed. Try again with more '-v' (verbose) options.
Here's the system:

[root@kraken1 tapset]# rpm -qa | grep kernel
kernel-devel-2.6.20-1.2316.fc5
kernel-2.6.20-1.2316.fc5
kernel-debuginfo-2.6.20-1.2316.fc5
[root@kraken1 tapset]# uname -a
Linux kraken1 2.6.20-1.2316.fc5 #1 SMP Fri Apr 27 19:19:10 EDT 2007 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
[root@kraken1 tapset]#
Maybe this got inlined?
