Hi all, I am trying to write a D script which would print ustack() for every program in the system receiving SIGSEGV. All the stacks printed in trap()/sigtoproc() context do not have meaningful symbols. The following solves the problem to some degree but I''d much rather have a self-contained D script. dtrace -w -n ''fbt:genunix:sigtoproc:entry/arg2 == 11/ {

Hi, I was going through the implementation of the fasttrap provider. I found that when displaced execution happens (ie., when the instruction traced is being executed out of the scratch space) if an asynchrnous signal comes we need to defer the delivery. Can somebody explain why this is necessary and how is it implemented? Thanks in advance Saravanan S -------------- next part -------------- An

Hi I have a Dtrace script ( attached ) which examines memory usage, using fbt:genunix:anon_resvmem:entry & return On my T2000 it totals the 65k pages being reserved by my application, printing out the total in bytes. Seems to work well, tested with a small app that malloced < 65 K, malloced 200M and mmapeed a 16M file and it appeared to get things correct. Could I just get a second pair

Hi, Following "anonymous tracing" chapter, I wanna trace kmem_init(), but after reboot, I can''t get anything, why? Here is my short script kmem_init.d: #!/usr/sbin/dtrace -s fbt::kmem_init:entry { stack(); } then I just use: #dtrace -AFs kmem_init.d #reboot #dtrace -ae < got nothing here> Thanks, -Alex This message posted from opensolaris.org

Hi. System is snv_56 sun4u sparc SUNW,Sun-Fire-V440, zil_disable=1 We see many operation on nfs clients to that server really slow (like 90 seconds for unlink()). It''s not a problem with network, there''s also plenty oc CPU available. Storage isn''t saturated either. First strange thing - normally on that server nfsd has about 1500-2500 number of threads. I did

Hiya, I''m trying to track down some throughput latency that our customer seems to be attributing to our product, I can''t see what he''s talking about, but I want to try and get some deeper granularity than I might get with something like smokeping, and maybe even see if its down to something tunable on our end. I''ve been looking for some examples on how

Hi, I''m working on some performance analysis with our database and it seems that when the file system (UFS) is mounted with forcedirectio, the IO probe are not triggered when an I/O event occurs. Could you confirm that ? If so, why ? Seb -- This message posted from opensolaris.org

Hello all, i''m trying to run the tool tcptop from the dtracetoolkit but it fails. I got the following error: tcptop -C 30 dtrace: failed to compile script /dev/fd/11: "usr/include/sys/kstat.h", line 439: invalid type combination I let it run on different machines on a Ultra 45 and a E20K both with Solaris 10 same result. any ideas? best regards Jens This message

Hi i''m trying to write my first dtrace script apparently i bit off a bit more than i can chew, i want to track io over sockets, i found your socketsize.d that gave me how to track writes, but i''m at a loss how to track reads, frankly i don''t see how your write tracker works because it uses a probe in a function that only takes two arguments but you grab size of write

Hi, I am profiling some workloads for the voluntary and involuntary context switches. I am interested in finding out the reasons causing these two types of context switches. As far as I understand, involuntary context switch happens on expiration of time slice or when a higher priority process comes in. While the voluntary switch generally happens when a process is waiting for I/O etc. So to

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 --

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

If I use a simple dtrace script such as this: fbt::somefunc:entry{self->trace=1;} fbt::somefunc:return{self->trace=0;} fbt:::entry{} fbt:::return{printf("%lx", arg1);} then it will descend to whatever depth is necessary If I want to limit it to say 3 functions deep, how can I do that? The quick answer I want to use is to do "self->depth++" on each entry and then

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

Is it possible to use DTrace to display the number of arguments and their types for userland or kernel functions that are not explicitly instrumented or documented by their authors? We''re talking about functions provided by Veritas VxVM/VxFS and the like, and for example, we might want to try tracing I/Os from App => VxFS => VxVM => ssd driver to see where I/Os get aggregated or

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

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
