You can see with the following: # cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing # echo stacktrace > trace_options # echo 'p kfree' > kprobe_events # echo 1 > events/kprobes/enable Will print the following warning: save_stack_trace_regs() not implemented yet. Although save_stack_trace() (which normal event stack traces use) is implemented, save_stack_trace_regs() which kprobe events use is not. This is a cheap attempt to implement that function. Note, This may have issues if a task tries to get a stack trace from another task with its regs, because it just passes in "current" to save_context_stack(). But this does solve the issue with stack tracing kprobe events.
