I was finally able to complete the trace. So along with enabling *rbd_tracing = true* like you adviced I had to symlink *librbd_tp.so* to point to *librbd_tp.so.1*. Since the SONAME of the library includes the version number I think we might need to update it in the place it is referenced from librbd. https://github.com/ceph/ceph/blob/master/src/librbd/librbd.cc#L58 I have uploaded the traces onto the tracker. Please let me know if there is anything more I can provide. Meanwhile, I can also push a fix for the issue with empty traces on Ubuntu/Debian if you think that change should be fine. Thanks!
