I'm on an amzn-linux instance which by default runs linux-4.9. I've compiled and booted linux-4.14.14 from source and I've compiled systemtap from source. Now I'd like to get them both working nicely together. Systemtap requires linux-debuginfo package. I'm running into a myriad of issues just trying to enable this or get it installed:
- amzn-main-debuginfo yum repo only provides kernel-debuginfo-4.9
- I cannot find a kernel-debuginfo-4.14.14 package
- i cannot find kernel-debuginfo-4.14.14 source code so I can compile it from scratch
- I cannot find a CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO option for
make menuconfig
for linux-4.14.14 - if I manually add CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO=y to linux-4.14.14/.config it gets deleted before compilation
If there's any way to fix any one of the above things, I think I can get this to work.
