>Description:
In the machine-specific dev/dtrace/*/dtrace_asm.S a duplicate
definition of vpanic() is provided. It's not clear to me if
this needs to override the standard system definition of
vpanic(). However, with the recent fix of PR kern/45125 we
now properly detect the redefinition of the global symbol, and
fail to load the module.
Since dtrace is available _only_ as a module, this effectively
renders dtrace inoperative.
>How-To-Repeat:
On -current, with the fix for PR kern/45125, try to load the
dtrace module (either via a boot-loader 'load dtrace' command,
or after boot with modload(8)).
>Fix:
Unknown.
Possibly rename the assembler routines, although there seems to
already be a dtrace_vpanic() wrapper.
