# stap -v -e 'probe vfs.read {printf("read performed\n"); exit()}'This prompt error occurs when systemtap tries to sign the generated kernel module for the first time but is unable to generate a password to protect the private key for its signing certificate. This should not be happening with the latest release (or the latest git) unless you have used the --unprivileged option. However some previous systemtap releases did attempt to sign all modules. What version of systemtap are you using?
Pass 1: parsed user script and 59 library script(s) in 170usr/20sys/210real ms.
Pass 2: analyzed script: 1 probe(s), 11 function(s), 2 embed(s), 1
global(s) in 360usr/160sys/551real ms.
Pass 3: translated to C into
"/tmp/stap3MwYIW/stap_a361f9cac28b917909da3d13c68e9b8c_4882.c" in
360usr/120sys/513real ms.
Enter new password for systemtap server certificate/key database:
In order to clear the ongoing errors you can remove the /etc/systemtap/ssl/server directory. If systemtap prompts you for a password again, just enter some random string and you should not be prompted again (although as I said above I'm interested in why you were prompted in the first place, i.e. why the two automated attempts at password generated failed).I eventually hit Ctrl-C, and things seemed to continue on fine (though I get occasional errors such as "Could not obtain information on certificate database file /etc/systemtap/ssl/server/cert8.db.").
Thanks, Dave
