Description

I manually compiled and installed the following packages:

userspace-rcu-0.11.0.tar.gz
lttng-ust-2.11.0.tar.gz
lttng-tools-2.11.0.tar.gz
babeltrace-1.5.7.tar.gz

Version of my environment:

[root@localhost ~]# uname -a
Linux localhost.localdomain 3.10.0-514.44.5.10.h165.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue Feb 26 18:43:36 UTC 2019 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

When I start the lttng-sessiond process, I get the following error and the startup fails:

[root@localhost /]# lttng-sessiond --no-kernel --daemonize
PERROR - 21:59:39.270365940 [13146/13146]: remove lock file: No such file or directory (in sessiond_cleanup_lock_file() at main.c:917)

The details are as follows:

I tracked the start of lttng-sessiond and found that CMM_LOAD_SHARED failed and the child process exited:

src/common/daemonize.c:lttng_daemonize:102

while (!CMM_LOAD_SHARED(*completion_flag)) {
    int status;
    pid_t ret;

    /*
     * Check if child exists without blocking. If
     * so, we have to stop this parent process and
     * return an error.
     */
    ret = waitpid(pid, &status, WNOHANG);
    if (ret < 0 || (ret != 0 && WIFEXITED(status))) {
        /* The child exited somehow or was not valid. */
        goto error;
    }
    sleep(1);
}

What is CMM_LOAD_SHARED? Is it not supported by my system?

Hi,

Let's focus a bit on the initial PERROR:

Note that with the daemonize option, we fork and wait for the child to inform the parent to exit (via the completion flag). We also close all output fds.

Does starting without the --daemoize option works?

As for the CMM_LOAD_SHARED: https://lwn.net/Articles/573435/
Given that you seem to be running x86_64 I doubt this is not supported.

Can you give us more information on the platform you are using? Is it in a container? Is it baremetal? Is it a vm? What distro?

Cheers

Is a physical machine, and after testing, it is ok in the virtual machine and container.
