The slab allocator has been removed from the kernel recently and the content of 'linux/slub_def.h' has been moved to 'mm/slab.h'. Slabratetop fails with the following error:
$ /usr/share/bcc/tools/slabratetop

There is alreday quite some headers and definitions gymnastics in the slabratetop tool to make it work with different allocators and kernel versions. I'm not sure what the solution to this one is.
