similar to: dtrace

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

I''ve been trying to get access to a userland string that''s behind a second level pointer using DTrace, but I can''t seem to get it to work. I started with the example on the Team DTrace Tips and Tricks slides: trace(copyinstr(*(uintptr_t *)copyin(arg0, curpsinfo->pr_dmodel == PR_MODEL_ILP32 ? 4 : 8))); And when I couldn''t get it to work, I started

Hi, I ran a d-program with syscall::open:entry probe but got the following error messages sometimes: dtrace: error on enabled probe ID 1 (ID 14: syscall::open:entry): invalid address (0xff34e000) in predicate at DIF offset 76 dtrace: error on enabled probe ID 6 (ID 14: syscall::open:entry): invalid address (0xff34e000) in predicate at DIF offset 28 I don''t know how to interpret these

[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:::

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]

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

I have just started my first ''serious'' dtrace script and can use some advice. I want to have a probe triggered when close() occurs after a succesfull write of /etc/hosts ( I want to regenerate the nameserver zone files from /etc/hosts after it has changed) At the moment I have the following code: syscall::open*:entry, syscall::creat*:entry { self->file=arg0;

Dtracing gethostbyname I''m trying to read the h_alias array and all the entries it points to however every time I copyin an entry pointed to by the first entry in teh h_alias array the other entries in the array get corrupted. So I have ended up with this script: #!/usr/bin/dtrace -CZs #include <netdb.h> pid$target::gethostbyname_r:return { self->r = (struct hostent

Hi, I have a situation where a DTrace script is printing out extra characters, despite the copyin() call giving a specific length. Can anyone think of why this might be? It''s fine the first time all of the probes fire, but on a second run of my generating operations, I get junk in there. For example: set setop length 5, FOUND KEY, STORED set setop length 5, FOUND KEY, STORED get

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?

Hy! I receive an nxge driver messages on console: Aug 18 11:08:42 [hostname] nxge: NOTICE: nxge_ipp_eccue_valid_check: rd_ptr = XXX wr_ptr = YYY I find the bug description/correction at sun web page, and i know i can ignore it. I thinking about how can i delete from console only these messages (here is my first version, what is not (so) elegant): #!/usr/sbin/dtrace -qs #pragma D option

I have a clause that look like this: syscall::write:entry /execname == "ntpd" && self->recspec/ { speculate(self->recspec); printf(" fd=%d buf=%d\n%s",arg0,arg2, stringof(copyin(arg1,arg2-1))); } The ntpd program always write a \n trminated string in this context, so I used the "arg2-1" to drop the \n. This works

Hi, Has something related to speculative tracing changed between s10 FCS and the more recent nevada builds ? I was trying the specopen.d script from the Dtrace guide on a nevada machine and it failed with : dtrace: failed to enable ''./spec.d'': DIF program content is invalid To try and narrow things down a bit I wrote the following short script. This works fine on s10, but

Strange problem on a desktop, 64 bit, SXDE3. ] ./jpg1.d dtrace: failed to compile script ./jpg1.d: "/usr/lib/dtrace/iscsi.d", line 94: syntax error near "uiscsiproto_t" Doesn''t matter what script. Even classic oneliners such as: ] dtrace -n ''syscall::open*:entry { printf("%s % s",execname,copyinstr(arg0)); }'' bomb in this way... dtrace:

Hi All, Is there a simple way to list all currently open file descriptors ? TIA.. Regards, Venkat -- This message posted from opensolaris.org

hi, I''m using the PID provider to trace a 32-bit app, prtdiag. I''m trying to print the value of "propname" (arg1) in the following func: int picl_get_propval_by_name(picl_nodehdl_t nodeh, const char *propname, void *valbuf, size_t nbytes) ... i''ve tried many versions, but this is a representative one: 53 this string propname; 54 55

Hi, There's no client activity and I have collected tcpdump for 5 mins on one of the glusterFs sever which is also a client with gluster NFS mount. From tcpdump I see that for every few seconds, STAT & STATFS commands are run. For whichctory are these commands being run and why?

I have a following sample function in a file which contains only function definitions like this. void mul(int x, int y, int& out, *int* arr*) { * arr[0] = 2;* * arr[1] = 1;* out = x * y; } I want to convert it to void mul(int x, int y, int& out) { out = x * y; } file contains only above function definitions. -- Thanks & Regards Jeevan -------------- next part --------------

Hi, Can I get a brief description of all the FOPS in gluster or the location of the source code file so that I will try to get an understanding myself? Few FOPS I'm not clear like FORGET, UNLINK, FLUSH, LOOKUP Or is there a way I can tunnel through the FOPS that that are happening in the background for each operation? I have tried this to find from a brick logfile in TRACE mode, but there

Hi Expert I want to use dtrace to monitor the content change of one file. I made following scripts, #!/usr/sbin/dtrace -s inline int MYPID = $1; syscall::write:entry /pid == MYPID/ { tracemem(arg1, arg2); printf("\n"); } It always has an following error bash-3.00$ sudo dumpFIFO.dtrace 3836 dtrace: failed to compile script ./dumpFIFO.dtrace: line 19: tracemem( ) argument #2
