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

[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 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, 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

Dear All, I am analyzing the miRNA data set in which I have 817 unique probes for each they have 20 features each . I have to group the similar features and take the median across them so that I have a data with no repeats to perform invariant analysis . My data looks something similar format probename sample1 sample2 sample3 A 2.3 2.4 2.5 A

Hi people, When working with some usdt C++ probes we have come across a few issues. Controlling USDT Function name: Putting in usdt probes into C++ code gives you the mangled enclosing function name for the probes Function name. Working around this can be a pain. You need to wrap your usdt probes in extern C functions and call these. Could we have an option to control the Function name for

Hi All, I''ve got a problem when I have USDT probes in a static library and in the application code outside of the library. I build the static library containing some USDT probes, glomming everything together (ld -r) before creating the .a file to preserve the probe symbols. This all works fine. I build an application which also has some USDT probes. When I build the application which

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 ...

How do I query an application to see if it supports any USDT probe points?

X.Org has adopted GNU autoconf as its build configuration mechanism, so when I integrated the dtrace probes, I checked to see if they should be built using this test, checking for the existence of a program named "dtrace" in the path: dnl Check for dtrace program (needed to build Xserver dtrace probes) AC_ARG_WITH(dtrace, AS_HELP_STRING([--with-dtrace=PATH], [Enable dtrace

I added a couple of static probes to Firefox to measure actual work done. I could have used a pid$target probe with a function name but work is done within an if statement, which is where I placed the static probes. I''m wondering about my use, though. Is the following significantly more efficient than pid$target::FunName:entry and return? I heard somewhere that $target does not

I''m trying to time a function within Firefoxwith a pid$target probe [2]. e.g dtrace -Zqw -x dynvarsize=64m -x evaltime=preinit -p 13954 -s menu- construct.d -s sigcont.d elapsed: 12.7942481ms cpu : 7.7911194ms count : 40 times I''m also measuring Firefox startup time by running it arguments like this: ... file:///Users/joelr/work/mozilla/startup/startup.html#`python

> I have a code that has several probes with the same probename. When I define the probe to use a translator and then try to match for all the occurances of the probename in a D script I get the following error: > > dtrace: invalid probe specifier mpi__test$target:::RECV_REQ_ACT_EV { printf("%d %d", args[0]->bar, args[0]->baz); }: in action list: args[ ] may not be

Is there a limit on the number of user space probes that can be present at any time? I have compiled very many probes into our product, and can''t see all of them in "dtrace -l". it looks very much like I have all of them up to some point at which I''ve hit some hard limit. I can see a total of 8588 probes, I think 2 processes have all of the ones I expect (one has 1752

Hi, As I''ve discussed before whenever we add USDT probes to a C++ function and call dtrace -l we get the mangled C++ name for the dtrace function, being listed :( Now the point of USDT probes is to abstract a higher level semantic construct for users to make use of. Surely it is not meant to be listing Unstable Interfaces (implementation details), such as the containing C++

Hello, If I release a new kernel module, do I need to release a SDT provider with it? Just like what "mdb" does - a mdb module together with the associated kernel module. Is it a "MUST" or a "OPTION"? Also what''s the requirement of USDT and user application? Is it encouraged or not to have many probes inside the code? Can I define my own

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

Hello, I am trying to get documentation how how this lazyloading happens when you are dealing with dtrace probes being added to user applications. In particular if it somehow avoids the overhead of registering dtrace probes when they aren''t needed, how does it know if they are needed, etc... thanks, Robert

Hi, I want to use USDT in my java applications. Please tell me how to achieve this. I am comfortable with SDT in C application. I am using Solaris Sparc10 with Generic_120011-14 version. Do I need to update my machine for this? Thanks, Ajit -- This message posted from opensolaris.org
