[Bug translator/6963] New: Bug in elfutils-0.137 causing failure in lookup of kernel global variables


The following script runs successfully on ppc64 when compiled with
elfutils-0.135 but fails on ppc64 with elfutils-0.137

probe kernel.function("__vm_enough_memory")
{
        printf("sysctl_overcommit_ratio = %d\n", $sysctl_overcommit_ratio)
}

The stack backtrace for the failure :

#0  0x1fbb10a0 in raise () from /lib/libc.so.6
#1  0x1fbb2e04 in abort () from /lib/libc.so.6

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Looks like an issue with dwfl_addrmodule.c

( I'm labelling this as a translator bug since I couldnt find a separate section
for elfutils-bugs )
