            Bug ID: 30131
           Summary: Testcase at_var_timer_profile.exp regressed
           Product: systemtap
           Version: unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2

test results overview

The testcase at_var_timer_profile.exp demonstrably regressed, specifically for
rhel9, see the attached overview.  The test case was added as part of commit
bd1fcbad9165da8 back in 2013.  Based on my bisection on rhel9, the regression
was caused by a kernel update 5.14.0-178.el9 ---> 5.14.0-178.el9.

Here's the testcase script as of today:
https://sourceware.org/git/?p=systemtap.git;a=blob;f=testsuite/systemtap.base/at_var_timer_profile.stp;h=479f74941a9fd739ea05b0d566c52d8929af7d03;hb=HEAD

Here's how the testcase works fine with 5.14.0-178.el9.x86_64
