[OEL 6.5] dwarf.c:581: undefined reference to `dwarf_loclist' issue

[miloluo]

Hi, guys
When I install dtrace4linux on Oracle Enterprise Linux 6.5 64bit.
I met this problem when using "make all":

---

../../build/ctfconvert.obj/dwarf.o: In function die_mem_offset': /sw/dtrace-20140420/cmd/ctfconvert/dwarf.c:581: undefined reference todwarf_loclist'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[3]: *** [../../build/ctfconvert] Error 1
make[2]: *** [all] Error 2
make[1]: *** [do_cmds] Error 2
tools/bug.sh
make: *** [all] Error 1

---

More log with this please check here: http://justpaste.it/ffw2

I also notice that there is a link with this arch linux:
[Arch Linux] Compile error: undefined reference to `dwarf_loclist' #58
#58

And I also tried "make -i all", it turn out to be a error there:

---

This means you will get run time errors from the io.d and sched.d files
due to undefined kernel structure definitions. Simply delete or rename
these files until a fix can be put in place to handle older
distros which do not have the required libdwarf dependencies.

  (Typical error is references to undefined struct definitions such
  as dtrace_cpu_t).

Could you guys help me with this?
Thanks very much.

Why are you using dtrace4linux on oel?

Because I don't have OEL's ULN for dtrace installation.
So I turn to here. So dtrace4linux doesn't support OEL? I thought it was a redhat fedora branch linux.
Thanks very much.

[IvanMamontov]

Any updates? I am trying to build dtrace on OEL too and I have the same problem.

[dtrace4linux]

Why are you trying to install dtrace4linux on Oracle linux? They have their
own dtrace.

Oracle Public Yum does not provide dtrace repositories for free http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E52668_01/E53499/html/ol7-install.html
So in order to get oracle own dtrace I have to pay about $800.

[dtrace4linux]

Ok, next suggestion: can you avoid using OEL?

I havent tried to build dtrace4linux on OEL because its there. I thought
they even published their own source code.
If OEL doesnt make it available, then I could grab a copy of OEL and
validate dtrace4linux works.

I also got his problem on fedora 20 -> ../../build/ctfconvert.obj/dwarf.o: In function die_mem_offset': /home/lcestari/repositories/linux/cmd/ctfconvert/dwarf.c:581: undefined reference todwarf_loclist'

You have libdwarf installed but you need to install libdw.
Or, you have libdw installed but you need to install libdwarf.

You may think the above is crazy, and that is the very sad state of the
DWARF debug libraries.

Thank you very much for the helping me =) I think I have both libs:
[lcestari@localhost linux]$ sudo yum install elfutils-libs
Loaded plugins: auto-update-debuginfo, langpacks, refresh-packagekit
Package elfutils-libs-0.160-1.fc20.x86_64 already installed and latest version
Nothing to do
[lcestari@localhost linux]$ sudo yum install libdwarf
Loaded plugins: auto-update-debuginfo, langpacks, refresh-packagekit
Package libdwarf-20140131-2.fc20.x86_64 already installed and latest version
Nothing to do
(not 100% for libdw but in http://rpm.pbone.net/index.php3/stat/3/srodzaj/1/search/libdw.so.1()(64bit) claims it would be in elfutils-libs ). very weird, isnt it?

[dtrace4linux]

can you send me the output from

make clean ; make all

thanks

Its picking up the wrong one, given both - or maybe neither support
dwarf_loclist. You can mostly ignore the error and just do

make -i all

that should give you a working dtracedrv.ko which can be loaded in the
kernel.

The output is https://gist.github.com/luan-cestari/0e039c6ee2bc38b38afe

Running 'make -i all' I got a strange warning in end:

LD [M] /home/lcestari/repositories/linux/build-3.15.10-200.fc20.x86_64/driver-2/hworld.ko

distros which do not have the required libdwarf dependencies.

  (Typical error is references to undefined struct definitions such
  as dtrace_cpu_t).

Does that means I have to rename/remove $REPO/etc/sched.d , $REPO/libdtrace/sched.d and $REPO/etc/io.d ?

Also, I tried to run dtrace but it always show the command usage like I'm doing sth wrong, for example:
dtrace -s d.d
Usage /bin/dtrace [--help] [-h | -G] [-C [-I]] -s File.d [-o ]

Where d.d is the following:
$ cat d.d
callout_execute:::callout_start
{
self->cstart = timestamp;
}

callout_execute:::callout_end
{

    @length = quantize(timestamp - self->cstart);

}

Do I have to restart so my kernel will be able to load this new module?

[dtrace4linux]

You appear to be running oracles version of dtrace and not dtrace4linux.
You need to avoid mixing them up.
