Your build appears fine, but:
> Pass 5: starting run.
> WARNING: probe
> kernel.function("SyS_open@/build/linux-lts-xenial-QiVniY/linux-lts-xenial-4.
> 4.0/fs/open.c:1038") (address 0x
> ffffffff811fcd40) registration error (rc -84)
This error is coming from the kernel, as it rejects our proposed probe.
Does
# sudo grep -i sys.open /proc/kallsyms
give a matching address (...811fcd40) on your machine? If so, stap probably
isn't doing anything wrong, and we'll have to work around kernel limitations.
One possibility is to use
# stap -P ...
(prologue-searching to offset probe PC). Another is to smoke-test stap against
other probe points
# stap -e 'probe nd_syscall.* { }' -c 'sleep 10'
to see whether many other functions are affected by this registration error,
only only this one.
