Bug ID: 16719
Summary: systemtap runs hold vmlinux file descriptor open
Product: systemtap
Version: unspecified
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: runtime
Assignee: systemtap at sourceware dot org
Reporter: lars at pixar dot com
Hello,
As long as stap is running, it holds a file descriptor open for the vmlinux
file. This makes it difficult to do volume maintenance for the filesystem
containing that file while stap scripts are running.
Can this file descriptor be closed once the kernel module is built?
thanks!
