similar to: ustack()s of SIGSEGV''ed programs

Just to let people know what my big picture is, I''m trying to write a script that will let me run a program, and name a progeny of that program that I want to debug. My script should find the first occurrence of that progeny, and run it until it finishes initializing the runtime linker, but stop it before it runs any shared library startup routines. (Failing that, I''d be okay

Dear R community I have a question regarding the value of cost complexity parameter "k" used in "tree" package for pruning purpose. Any help in finding the optimum value of "k" is requested. Please give some suggestion in this regard. In the example below i used k=0 but i don't know why? But if i use k=NULL, then it will not plot the resultant tree.

Suppose I have a USDT probe in Firefox and that I''m trying to catch the startup with a probe like this: proc:::exec-success /execname == "firefox-bin"/ { start = timestamp; } and stop tracing when Firefox hits this USDT probe: mozilla:::main-entry { exit(0); } How do I put the running firefox-bin into "trace mode" so that my USDT probe fires? Thanks, Joel

Hi all, We just got a shiny new T5440, and one of the first things I noticed (besides the insane number of hardware contexts), is that dtrace takes 30 seconds to a minute to fire up scripts with 5-6 probes, where our T5220 usually takes under a second. Shutdown is similar, though slightly faster. This is mostly annoying because it takes so long to attach that it''s hard to tell when

Hi, I''m trying to use dtrace to signal threads in my app when certain events happen, and the raise() action seemed adequate -- looking at the kernel sources, it sends a signal to the currently executing thread, and a quick microbenchmark confirmed this. However, further testing showed that if lots of threads hit the event simultaneously, the signal only gets delivered once, and may also

Tracers, Good news! The Solaris Dynamic Tracing Guide has entered the participation age at last and has been converted into wiki format. The new and shiny guide can be found at: http://wikis.sun.com/display/DTrace/Documentation The guide has fallen behind with developments in DTrace since it was first released and needs some revising and some bug fixing as well. However, now that it''s

on Solaris 10 5.10 Generic_118822-23 sun4v sparc SUNW,Sun-Fire-T200 I run #iostat -xn 5 to monitor the IO statistics on SF T2000 server. The system also have a heavy IO load, for some reason iostat donot refresh (no any update). It seems like iostat is calling pause() and stucked there. Also my HBA driver''s interrupt stack trace indicates there is a lot of swtch(), the overall IOPS

Hi, I am tracking down a problem and would like to know how I can follow a forked process with my dtrace script, or how I can trace a dynamic library. Here is the problem. I am tracing dtlogin, and specifically I am trying to determine what error libpkcs11`<routine> is returning. It turns out dtlogin forks a lot of processes, and I believe the second forked process is the one that winds

Hi, I''m trying to trace the io of a given file, but I have a feeling that it''s been done via a script, as such I''d like to be able to tell the names of the calling processe tree, similar to what ptree produces. Is there any way to get this information without running ptree using system()? Thanks, Darren.

everyone, Just out of curiosity, I did a dtrace -n ''syscall:::entry { @num[execname, probefunc] = count(); }'' and looked at the entries produced by ''rm''. I see everything that rm did, *except* the unlinkat - which is unfortunate because I want to trace which processes have deleted which files. So - does dtrace contain unlinkat as a probe for a system call?

Hi Renato, This patch is to add Xenoprof passive domain support in SMP environment. Basically: - It allocates per vcpu buffers for passive domain and maps them into primary domain''s space. - When primary domain gets sampled and triggers virq, its kernel module will handle passive domain'' samples besides its owns. There is potential buffer overflow if passive is very busy while

I am trying to integrate John Levon''s ustack() helper for Python into the upstream Python sources. The method for doing this on Solaris is to compile the phelper.d script containing the helper into an object file using "dtrace -G". dtrace on OS X does not have "dtrace -G", just "dtrace -h". This works fine for USDT probes, but I am at a loss on how to

Hi Ryan, > Does anyone happen to know why the ustack() doesn''t show lex, > yak, main > and _start? A quick look with the source browser seems to indicate that _rt_boot is code executed very early in the lifetime of your process by ld.so.1. What seems to be happening is that ld.so.1 has allocated some memory before DTrace got control of your process - long before main() was

Howdy, I was playing around with the malloc/free D script provided by Philip Beevers: http://www.opensolaris.org/jive/thread.jspa?threadID=4224&tstart=15 And decided to change the free:entry probe from: pid24169::free:entry / sz[arg0] / { printf("Freeing %p (size %d)\n", arg0, sz[arg0]); sz[arg0] = 0; } to: pid24169::free:entry / ! sz[arg0] / { printf("[ *

Hello I've succeeded running older version ov TextAloud on my machine (to some extend). It means that now I can type my registration code in the application and continue with running TextAloud. Later at some moment it ties to use TTS engines and then it shows the message that TTS engine isn't installed. I've installed AT&T Natural voices in TextAloud directory and have instructed

Another checksum offload problem was reported on xen-users, when using a domU as a firewall: http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-users/2006-04/msg01150.html It also fails without VLANs. The path from dom0->domU with ip_summed==CHECKSUM_HW/proto_csum_blank==1 is broken. - skb_checksum_setup() assumes that a checksum will definitely be calculated in dev_queue_xmit(), but the

Hello, The Hotspot JVM Runtime group would like to put forth a project proposal to improve the capabilities of DTrace''s ustack()/jstack() actions to better handle non-standard user stack frames. This email will describe the background, the problem, and our proposed solution. We''re interested in getting a sponsor for this work to help us with the process of getting the

Hi All, I'm running 1.2.9.1. I can prune sip realtime peers and users and iax realtime peers but no command to prune iax realtime users. Was this implemented in a later version? Thanks. JR -- JR Richardson Engineering for the Masses

I have a test program which has a call sequence of a(), b(), c(), d(). When I place a pid return probe on d(), I get a ustack that looks like this: a.out`d+0x19 a.out`b+0xd a.out`a+0xd a.out`main+0x3c a.out`_start+0x7a The c() method appears to be missing. I did some poking around and noticed that pid return probes
