I upgraded from Ubuntu 18.10 to Ubuntu 19.04. Systemtap does not compile scripts any more. It reports that stapconf_[random].h header file does not exist. The Makefile in /tmp/stap[random]/ does exist, but for some reason the C header is not being generated.
The systemtap script I am using contains the following probes:
global p_count = 0
probe kprocess.create {
p_count += 1
//printf("Process: %s - PID: %d - Created PID: %d - Created TID: %d - Parent process: %d - Parent name: %s - Processes created: %d\n",execname(),pid(),new_pid,new_tid,ppid(),pid2execname(ppid()),p_count)
}
probe socket.create {
printf("Process socket: %s - PID: %d - Parent process: %s - PPID: %d\n",execname(),pid(),pid2execname(ppid()),ppid())
}
It worked in Ubuntu 18.10. But not in 19.04. I have compiled Systemtap 4.0 from source and reports the same error.
