Hi Avik,

Can I get your kernel .config ? Also, adding a printk in lttng-modules
wrapper/vmalloc.h, just after vmalloc_sync_all_sym = (void *)
kallsyms_lookup_name("vmalloc_sync_all");

printing the vmalloc_sync_all_sym pointer value would be clearly
helpful. I would think ARM does not implement vmalloc_sync_all, so the
dummy mm/vmalloc.c vmalloc_sync_all weak symbol should be used as a
valid empty function. Please grep for vmalloc_sync_all under your
arch/arm to see if your particular omap flavor is implementing a
vmalloc_sync_all.

Thanks!

Mathieu
