similar to: fbt::cpu_mstate_new:new not found.

Hi all, I have questions about something I observed just now: 1) on AMD64, S10u1: # dtrace -n ''fbt::copystr:entry{printf ("%p\n", args[0]);}'' -c /bin/pwd dtrace: invalid probe specifier fbt::copystr:entry{printf ("%p\n", args[0]);}: in action list: index 0 is out of range for fbt::copystr:entry args[ ] but # dtrace -n ''fbt::copystr:entry{printf

Whilst trying out some D to get an insight into what is the most common reason for a given function to return, I have bumped into an error I don''t understand. The first take on what I was trying to do was: # dtrace -n ''fbt:ip:ip_input:return{@home[arg0] = count();}'' and all was well. The next step was: # dtrace -n

Is there a list anywhere of the DTrace FBT provider calls for each version of Solaris since the Nevada build that hosed the DTrace Toolkit. I have no issue with rewriting what I need, but I am hoping to stave off having to look at all the source code to find everything. I know there is a new provider under development, but I need to be able to program DTrace routines for all the updates in

OK, I''ve been fritzing around with something I noticed last night, thinking that I understood what was going on, but now it''s getting confusing again. A system that has been running for a couple of months had a hole in the probe ID list near the end in the middle of the fbt probes. And then a couple of syscall probes were stuck in the hole. It looked like this: ... 40311

Hey, Do you guys think that is a good idea to have a manual page for each provider with a complete description of what probes are offered ? Found some already under 7D category: dtrace dtrace (7d) - DTrace dynamic tracing facility fasttrap fasttrap (7d) - DTrace user instruction tracing provider fbt fbt (7d) - DTrace function boundary tracing provider

Hi Nils, all, I tried the ''FBT-trick'' suggested below by Nils and (of course :-) ) it works and gives me a pile of output. Good enough to show that indeed Linux application behavior is not totally opaque, good enough to for instance show that ''system call mapping'' is taking place. I wonder, is there any documentation available for lxsyscall module ? To learn

what is differenct between syscall::write:entry fbt::write:entry are the two probe fires at the same place. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org

Thanks Michael. Here is my (slightly corrected) version of the script, after I''ve done a bit of investment in the dtrace manual (always knew it''s powerful, but it''s more than that...). While it appears to run, and when I tried lowering the limit I started getting results, I''d appreciate it if you could please explain the actions attached to the last few probes

All, The attached script is causing the following error message ... bash-3.00# ./zmon_bug.d dtrace: error on enabled probe ID 2 (ID 4394: fbt:genunix:copen:entry): invalid address (0xfd91747f) in predicate at DIF offset 120 dtrace: error on enabled probe ID 2 (ID 4394: fbt:genunix:copen:entry): invalid address (0xfef81a3f) in predicate at DIF offset 120 Any ideas? thxs Joe --

Referring to the DTrace manual: "Module If this probe corresponds to a specific program location, the name of the module in which the probe is located. This name is either the name of a kernel module or the name of a user library. Function If this probe corresponds to a specific program location, the name of the program function in which the probe is located." and then ...

I''m using DTrace''s anonymous tracing feature to trace through device drivers at boot time. With Solaris 10 Update 6 B5, I was unable to trace fbt based calls from the sd attach point. The error messages from the console are: NOTICE: enabling probe 0 (fbt::sdattach:entry) NOTICE: enabling probe 1 (fbt:::) NOTICE: enabling probe 2 (fbt::sdattach:return) NOTICE: enabling probe

Hi All, One of the customer is seeing the following error messages. He is using a S10U1 system with all latest patches. Dtrace script is attached. I am not seeing these error messages on S10U2 system. What could be the problem?

I wrote a simple c programme and do some dtrace test. the progromme shows below(write.c): /////////////////////////////// #include<stdio.h> #include <sys/types.h> #include <sys/stat.h> #include <fcntl.h> char *value="hello,my name is wanjm\n"; void main() { int fd; fd=open("/export/home/wanjm/temp/read.txt",O_RDWR|O_CREAT); while(1) {

Hi Here is System tap''s representives response to my comments and mine back to that list. Since it was on a public mailing list i''m reposting here, since there is obvious interest.

Hi All: In Solaris Dtrace User Guide, page 218, it says, "Functions that do not create a stack frame on x86 systems cannot be instrumented by FBT." Then what are these functions? What characteristics do they have? Regards TJ

We cannot run the zilstat utility (from http://www.richardelling.com/Home/scripts-and-programs-1/zilstat) on an Solaris 10 u9 / x86 installed according SUNWCreq (which is a core install) while it works fine on a similar config but installed with all packages (SUNWCXall) So we know it works in this environment but it seems we miss an essential package here. That causes the dtrace: failed to

Hello all, I saw this question about a year back in the archive[1], but with no final answer. I would like to trace shmget calls and also get the id of the shared memory segment. That script looked like[2], but we dont get the id since arg1 is the errno value. How do i access the shm id, i would need this to debug a customer problem but i don''t have time to learn it the hard

Hello, I''ve done this several times in the past but a co-worker is having problems getting anonymous tracing to work: dtrace -A -m su and we see updated /kernel/drv/dtrace.conf and fbt and dtrace forceloads added to /etc/system. Upon reboot the following errors occur (note that we are running snv_66): {0} ok boot disk Boot device: /pci at 0/pci at 0/pci at 2/scsi at 0/disk at 0 File

What is causing this error: dtrace: processing aborted: Abort due to systemic unresponsiveness It happens to my script which shows all the NFS operations coming through common_dispatch() on a server. I wasn''t the one running the test, so I don''t know how long it ran before it died. The script uses a couple of static probes and a couple fbt. Thanks, jim -------------- next
