Do ctfdump -tf on your kld and verify that what it outputs actually
makes sense. Do kldload and see if fbt provider knows about your module
and functions. There is nothing else special that I can think off.

Maybe make sure that you compile your sources with -g in the first
place? DWARF debug info is what CTF generation utils use to figure out
types and function prototypes.
