That's weird. The sig_ok field of struct module should only be used when 
CONFIG_MODULE_SIG is defined. This looks like a kernel config mismatch. 
You might want to ensure you use KERNELDIR=path_to_kernel_source make 
to build lttng-modules.

Hrm, is this a kind of Frankeinstein kernel ? Arguably, the RHEL6-based kernels has a set 
of features taken from kernels between 2.6.32 and 2.6.35, but even at 2.6.35, the kernel 
does not appear to implement CONFIG_MODULE_SIG. This makes me wonder why 
CONFIG_MODULE_SIG appears in the .config file at all. 

Thanks,
