Hi Sean, As mentioned by Mathieu this is caused by the docker default seccomp profile blocking the "restart_syscall" syscall. This problem only happens on host systems where docker 0.10.2 and up was built against libseccomp 2.2.1 and up.
Hopefully docker will add this syscall to their default whitelist but in the meantime, you can simply get the json profile [1] from git and add this : { "name": "restart_syscall", "action": "SCMP_ACT_ALLOW", "args": [] } Then start your container with "--security-opt seccomp:/path/to/myprofile.json". Hope it helps, Michael [1] https://github.com/docker/docker/blob/master/profiles/seccomp/default.json ----- On Feb 11, 2016, at 9:01 AM, Sean Heelan seanhee...@gmail.com wrote: > Hi all, > > I am running a target within a Docker instance, and tracing function execution > using the latest LTTng release (2.7).
