I was just reading bug 1303785. On the namespace thing, I found exynos_defconfig no longer sets CONFIG_USER_NS. This is needed. I also had to set CONFIG_PERF_EVENTS and CONFIG_KPROBES, which apparently were on by default for Panda. And of course we've always had to set CONFIG_RELAY for systemtap. Then there's CONFIG_KPROBE_EVENT, CONFIG_UPROBES, and CONFIG_UPROBES_EVENT.

The CONFIG_CC_STACK... stuff is new to me. The only config I have for that in my Arndale test builds is CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_NONE.

Also, when I moved on from v3.14 to v3.15-rc2 I found that I had to pull fresher systemtap sources. I had build problems with the stale version.

BTW, when you move on to v3.15 remember to stop pulling my uprobes-v7 work. That's in v3.15 already. We *might* have to add a patch for a cache issue with uprobes, if upstream waits for v3.16 to accept it. Without it I see a failure round 10% of the time in one systemtap test.
