+On a kernel with FIPS mode enabled, staprun normally refuses to attempt to
|
|
|
eb15f5 |
+load systemtap-generated kernel modules. This is because on some kernels,
|
|
|
eb15f5 |
+this results in a panic. If your kernel includes corrections such as
|
|
|
eb15f5 |
+linux commit #002c77a48b47, then you can force staprun to attempt module
