Re: Summary of nightly testing 20061016 (failed to retrieve return value location)

Hi Will,

Sorry for the confusion. The test I used

./testsuite/systemtap.samples/tcptest.exp (tcptest.stp)

Occasionally it fails due to TCP traffic, but not "$return" error.

Hi Thang,


I took a closer look at the default install in /usr/local/bin and what is installed when using stap_testing. There are two files missing from the share/systemtap/tapset/*.stp:

Looking at what is in the share/systemtap/tapset directories there are some differences:

$ diff /tmp/stap_test.files /tmp/stap_local.files
0a1,6

> ./2.6.9-24.ELsmp/x86_64/syscalls.stp
41a48
> ./return.stp

> ./system_calls.stp



This explains why the $return wasn't working. However, I don't know why just those two stp files and some of subdirectories are not installed when the following was in the configure:

--prefix=/home/wcohen/stap_testing_200610181621/install
