Description of problem:
Systemtap on Fedora 24(x86_64) failed to compile kernel.data() example.
Using upstream's systemtap, it works.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
systemtap-3.0-4.fc24
kernel-4.9.5-100.fc24

How reproducible:
Always.

Steps to Reproduce:
1.  The exampe script.
 
#! /usr/bin/env stap
probe kernel.data("vm_dirty_ratio").rw
{
  print_backtrace();
}

2. compile the script.

Additional info:
With upstream systemtap,(commit 575fe913f6b6b81421f7bfda7c72ab8c15ecb8e3)
the systemtap script compile and work as expected.

Comment 1 David Smith 2017-02-02 16:53:56 UTC
That was probably fixed by either of the following 2 upstream commits:

====
commit 2676bba61284109b8f6f96921667613c15398a07
Author: Frank Ch. Eigler <fche>
Date:   Mon Dec 26 10:39:09 2016 -0500

    Fix get_user_pages_remote() test for 4.10-rc0 kernels.
    
    This kernel API is undergoing considerable flux.

commit 00960517fb4a4d8388854b470da30e0c886b0e89
Author: David Smith <dsmith>
Date:   Fri Dec 9 11:41:35 2016 -0600

    Fix BZ1386120 by updating systemtap to handle the 4.9 kernel.
    
    * runtime/linux/access_process_vm.h (__access_process_vm_): Use
      STAPCONF_GET_USER_PAGES_REMOTE_FLAGS to handle get_user_pages_remote()
      kernel function API change.
    * runtime/transport/procfs.c (_stp_proc_read): Use _stp_get_rchan_subbuf()
      macro to handle kernel relayfs rchan->buf changes.
    * runtime/transport/relay_v2.c (__stp_relay_wakeup_timer): Ditto.
      (_stp_data_write_reserve): Ditto.
    * runtime/transport/symbols.c (_stp_module_panic_notifier): Ditto.
    * buildrun.cxx (compile_pass): Add autoconf-style tests.
    * runtime/linux/autoconf-get_user_pages_remote-flags.c: New file.
    * runtime/linux/autoconf-relay_buf-per_cpu_ptr.c: New file.
    * runtime/transport/relay_compat.h: New file.
====

Since Fedora 24 has switched to a 4.9 kernel, this puts additional pressure on us to get a new systemtap release out. I'll try to update this bug when we've finalized our release plans.

Comment 2 masanari iida 2017-02-08 00:21:31 UTC
After update to following version, systemtap can compie the script again.

Thank you.
You may close this case.
