Please compare the /ltt/probes/net-extended-trace.c file from your
distro kernel tree to the:

lttng-modules package, file: /probes/net-extended-trace.c

Also compare the /ltt/ltt-type-serializer.h (or was it
include/linux/ltt-type-serializer.h ?) from your distro kernel with the
lttng-modules package:

/ltt-type-serializer.h

I remember having fixed this problem in the past months. Look closely at
the structure layout for "struct serialize_l214421224411111", "struct
serialize_l4412228" and "struct serialize_l4421224411111" vs the types
passed to the DEFINE_MARKER_TP() in net-extended-trace.c.

Thanks,

Mathieu
