Hi Mathieu,

We aim to trace SYSCALL in kernel space. In general, what would be the obstacles to support RHEL6? Or what are key kernel patches to be necessary? 


Regards
Hai

 Hi,



The current LTTng kernel tracer (lttng-modules) supports Linux 3.0+ only.



If you only need to trace user-space, you might be able to use lttng-tools and lttng-ust

on an older kernel. Please refer to the README.md files of each project for information

about their environment prerequisites.



The RHEL6 kernel variant based on 2.6.32-2.6.35 Linux kernels has never been supported by

the LTTng 2.x kernel tracers without kernel patching.



Thanks,



Mathieu

Hi Mathieu,
Thanks. I am looking for packages for older distributions like CentOS 6 (with kernel 2.6) but could not find it. And which kernel version is minimum requirement for LTTng?

Regards
Hai

Hi

Thanks for quick response. 
LTTng is really impressive on performance，especially under heavy workload. When using it on critical machines，stability is also essential. 
I wonder how LTTng is commercialized and any products or OS distributions already enabled it. 
I took a look at lttng-modules bug list，there are a few kernel oops years ago and got resolved. May I say it is very stable or it has not been fully tested? 

Hi,


EfficiOS has had commercial customers using LTTng in production for many years now.
LTTng per-se is distributed as packages in all major Linux distributions. EfficiOS also provides

more up-to-date packages for some distributions through http://packages.efficios.com/


The way we commercialize LTTng is through funding for design and implementation of
customer's feature requests. We also provide commercial support tailored to specific
customer's environments, which includes SLA and continuous integration testing of specific
environments.


If those are services you are interested in, please feel free to contact us in private so we
can further discuss your needs.


Best regards,


Mathieu

 Hi,

> As to LD_PRELOAD, it is also used for privilege escalation. Will it be regarded as vulnerability and forbidden on some Linux systems?

It could yes.
In that case you will be limited to the syscalls interface for the libc
observability unless you instrument it and distribute it.

Cheers.
