After building and bfu''in the lastest ON build, any time I run a dtrace script I get a Seg Fault. Is there a dtrace for dtrace :) Doug root at prae> dtrace -n ''syscall::open*:entry { printf("%s %s",execname,copyinstr(arg0)); }'' Segmentation Fault (core dumped) root at prae> pstack core core ''core'' of 101364: dtrace -n

Dear dtrace Experts, I have seen some dtrace utilities like opensnoop and execsnoop etc. My interest is to write a simple script that can snoop the files which uses the 3 syscalls like open,create,unlink. I have gone through dtrace oneliners that can do the same : dtrace -n ''syscall::open*:entry { printf("%s %s",execname,copyinstr(arg0));}'' dtrace -n

If I have the following definition: provider foo { probe bar(const char*); }; and creates the headerfile (snv 43) with dtrace -h I get: extern void __dtrace_foo___bar(char *); This is a "problem" for me (ok, I could add an explicit cast each time I fire the probe, or edit the generated headerfile by hand...), since it generates compilation errors when I call the probe in a C++

G''Day Folks, I''ve found another use of dtrace, this makes your console keyboard sound like a typewriter. http://www.brendangregg.com/DTrace/typewriter-0.70.tar.gz I''ve only tested it on an UltraSPARC 5 and a Pentium laptop so far, more to follow. Ok, sorry, not actually a practical use of DTrace. :) Enjoy! Brendan [Sydney, Australia]

hi fnds, i want to print the filenames on which the stat system call is acting when a stat system call is invoked. can anyone can help me this regard. Thanks jeevan

Hi, Chris (cc) and I try to get the SGE master monitor work with Apple Leopard dtrace. Unfortunately we are stuck with the error msg below. Anyone having an idea what could be the cause? What I can rule out as cause is function inlining for the reasons explained below. Background information on SGE master monitor implementation is under http://wiki.gridengine.info/wiki/index.php/Dtrace

I''d like to be able to dynamically read external configuration files within a dtrace script. I know dtrace allows inclusion of C header files but only at the preprocessing stage. What we need to do is dynamically enable/disable probes based on current application settings. I''d rather not have a bunch of independant scripts running and being started and killed whenever the

Hi all, OK, so this at first looked like a clear cut "Don''t do it, or at worst handle the results" issue my customer has come to me with, but the more we discuss it, the more it looks like we should have better ways of dealing with this issue. > We have user defined dtrace probe points in the application which use > as parameter 64 bit values: > > provider adv {

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

Hey, Im able to reproduce a crash from plockstat everytime Im tracing a JVM pid. I do recall a problem related with this one, but not clear if this has been fixed in U3 or is it planned for U4 ? Any BugID opened for this stack trace: > ::stack libc.so.1`strlen+0x50(100003faa, ffffffff7ffff5c8, ffffffff7eca1114, ffffffff7fffec79, 0, 100003fa9) libc.so.1`snprintf+0x88(ffffffff7ffff8f0, 0,

Does dtrace have a problem catching the return from memset on Mac OSX? The script below catches the entry just fine but the return clause is never entered. Thanks, Joel --- pid$target::memset:entry /arg1 == 0/ { self->size = arg2; self->ts = timestamp; self->vts = vtimestamp; } pid$target::memset:return /self->size/ { @ts = sum(timestamp - self->ts); @vts =

[1] Predicates in one-liners I would like to list the probe modules in my executable and then dynamically create a dscript to trace execution of those modules alone (by excluding the 3rd party and system libraries). I tried the below script without success. The conditional given in the predicate is not taking effect. Why is this so ? $ dtrace -ln ''pid$target:::

I have found that pid provider can not create memcpy:return probe for 64bit process on snv_110. For example, the pid is 10603, I will have following output for dtrace command: #dtrace -n pid10603:libc.so.1:memcpy:return dtrace: invalid probe specifier pid10603:libc.so.1:memcpy:return: probe description pid10603:libc.so.1:memcpy:return does not match any probes This just

Howdy, I am attempting to isolate the location of a memory leak in a 4GL program, and have hit a bit of a snag. When I LD_PRELOAD libumem and run the application server, "::findleaks -fdv" reports numerous leaks: CACHE LEAKED BUFCTL CALLER 0000000100b49068 15 0000000100ef2d50 fdcon+0x6c4 0000000100b50028 1 0000000100b72ac0 fdcon+0x6c4 0000000100b49068

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, I''m posting a question hoping someone will know the answer off hand thereby reducing my search time. :-) With USDT probes, the tracepoint is only installed by libdtrace itself, never by the drti ioctl. So whenever I run a program with an USDT probe, no tracepoint is installed. Only after I run the dtrace command the tracepoint is actually installed on the victim process. My question

I''d like to see if we can use DTrace to as the kernel implementation of the BSD systrace security policy system (http://www.systrace.org). I don''t really want to port systrace to Solaris because I think with DTrace we already have all the necessary in kernel hooks to do this. With systrace you express things like: "httpd can bind to port 80 but not any other port, it

Howdy, I am trying to migrate several scripts to use application defined types, and am running into a few issues. When I attempt to run a script with a application defined type, it looks like the DTrace preprocessor is getting angry with me: $ cat view.d #include "httpd.h" :::acceptconnection { this->addr = (conn_rec *)copyin(arg0,sizeof(conn_rec *)); } $ dtrace -C
