So it can and does open .xz. Tony, do you have some old version of systemtap?
Stap seems to use libelf to handle that and this was added there by commit 6ecdead8c0fbba51e8b2561e4d54dd7be3f69204 Author: Roland McGrath <roland@redhat.com> Date: Fri Feb 11 12:29:45 2011 -0800
libdwfl: Search for Linux kernel binaries with compression file name suffixes.
So xz should not be a problem. That said, I don't understand what your issue is. Something seems to be broken on your system.
I don't have an issue. The vmlinux I was using wasn't xz compressed and so systemtap wasn't decompressing it. Maybe it can decompress xz. My point was that you said only "kdump and crash read it [vmlinux]" which isn't true, systemtap also does. That is all. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
