I tried it, without success.
# stap open.stop
cannot find module kernel debuginfo: No DWARF info found
#
I tried it with a custom build kernel and it works fine.
Without the -debug package, systemtap complains about the absence of the
vmlinux file altogether. But I think that the vmlinux provided in the
-debug package don't have debuginfos... Possible?
