Subject: [ltt-dev] kernel Oops in ltt_buffer_begin_callback /
	ltt_create_buf_file_callback
Message-ID: <v41vy9c589.fsf@swi-aim.swindon.wrsec.fr>


[ Sorry for the duplicate; was using the old mail alias. ]

I am using:

  linux-2.6.27-lttng-0.43
  ltt-control-0.55-16102008

and tried to create a trace with:

  /usr/local/ltt-control-0.55/bin/lttctl -x 32768 -n trace4 -d -l /mnt/debugfs/ltt -t /tmp/trace4

but that gave me a SEGV followed by the following Oops:
