Re: Help required in relation with static probe points, STAP_MARK
I'm using the directions in the given link, by David. However when I tried to
recompile the kernel, I got the following error message:
VDSO arch/x86/vdso/vdso32-sysenter.so.dbg
CC kernel/sched.o
In file included from kernel/sched.c:31:
include/linux/marker.h:33: error: expected declaration specifiers or Ã...Ã
before Ãva_listÃ
VDSOSYM arch/x86/vdso/vdso32-int80-syms.lds
VDSOSYM arch/x86/vdso/vdso32-sysenter-syms.lds
Its pointing the error to the linux/marker.h file. Please suggest the
solution. Thanks.
Kernel version : 2.6.26.5
Patched with : patch-2.6.26.5-rt9
