- Subject: [PATCH] session.cxx (systemtap_session copy ctor): copy kernel_build_tree value
Hi,
Here's a patch for a problem I've seen when using systemtap to do a
'cross' invocation of a stap script on a remote target system. I'm not
sure this is the correct fix, or if it's even proper C++, as it's been
awhile since I've done much C++, but it did fix the problem here...
When using the stap -r option with a full path to a kernel build tree
(i.e. one starting with /) along with --remote to execute the script
on a remote system, the build tree that I passed in was ignored and it
used some default locally-constructed location instead:
Checking "/lib/modules/3.4.24-yocto-standard/build/.config" failed
with error: No such file or directory
I traced it down to the s->clone() call in the path
ssh_remote->connect()->set_child_fds(), which unconditionally invokes
the following in the systemtap_session copy constructor:
kernel_build_tree = "/lib/modules/" + kernel_release + "/build";
That doesn't seem correct - it seems to me it should be preserving the
value from the passed-in session object, which is what this does.
