Package: ksymoops
Version: 2.4.11-1
Severity: normal
Ksymoops wants /proc/ksyms which I don't have and does not like
/proc/kallsyms which I do have.
I did not find anything about this issue in the man page nor did I find
any kernel option to turn on that proc file.
Without it ksymoops is basically useless as it refuses to analyze
modules and most kernel code is in modules.
$ ksymoops -v linux-2.6.34-rc1/vmlinux
ksymoops 2.4.11 on x86_64 2.6.34-rc1. Options used
-v linux-2.6.34-rc1/vmlinux (specified)
-k /proc/ksyms (default)
-l /proc/modules (default)
-o /lib/modules/2.6.34-rc1/ (default)
-m /boot/System.map-2.6.34-rc1 (default)
Error (regular_file): read_ksyms stat /proc/ksyms failed
ksymoops: No such file or directory
No modules in ksyms, skipping objects
No ksyms, skipping lsmod
^C
$ ksymoops -v linux-2.6.34-rc1/vmlinux -k /proc/kallsyms
ksymoops 2.4.11 on x86_64 2.6.34-rc1. Options used
-v linux-2.6.34-rc1/vmlinux (specified)
-k /proc/kallsyms (specified)
-l /proc/modules (default)
-o /lib/modules/2.6.34-rc1/ (default)
-m /boot/System.map-2.6.34-rc1 (default)
Warning (read_ksyms): no kernel symbols in ksyms, is /proc/kallsyms a
valid ksyms file?
No modules in ksyms, skipping objects
No ksyms, skipping lsmod
^C
