NetBSD 8.99.51 (GENERIC) #0: Fri Jul 19 12:14:15 UTC 2019 mkrepro%mkrepro.NetBSD.org@localhost:/usr/src/sys/arch/i386/compile/GENERIC i386
>Description:
Attempting to run DTrace results in "WARNING: module error: incompatible module class for `dtrace' (3 != 1)"
Tested on NetBSD/i386 & amd64
One has to modload solaris & modload dtrace
From there, dtrace is able to load subsequent dtrace_* modules
$ modstat |grep dtrace
dtrace misc filesys - 2 - solaris
dtrace_sdt misc filesys a 0 - dtrace
dtrace_syscall misc filesys a 0 - dtrace
>How-To-Repeat:
Try running 'dtruss ls' or "dtrace -n 'BEGIN'"
Dtrace will not work until you have modload solaris; modload dtrace manually.
>Fix:
I suspect the change of the default value of WARNS for modules may be related but I'm not sure if the value should be reduced or this has highlighted a bug a in the module code.
Commit which changed the default WARNS value:
