- Subject: new stuff checked in
Hi Martin,
I've checked in the new tranport stuff - please let me know if there
are any problems with it.
Some notes -
- You need to do a 'make' in the tranport directory to make the
stp-control module.
- stpd now takes an additional option (-r) which tells it to use
relayfs; if you use this, the probe needs to be compiled without
STP_NETLINK_ONLY as well. The default is to use netlink as a
transport. The shellsnoop stp script contains a commented-out entry
for that - I didn't add it to the others though.
- stpd now directly invokes insmod for the module rather than the stp
script - necessary to be able to get the daemon's pid, which is passed
in as a modparam.
- you can now run multiple probes at the same time - however since 3
of them are named dtr.ko, you can only run one of those at at time.
I've tested using one of the dtr.ko and where_func. Probably need to
generate unique names for every module.
- I still need to document all of this somewhere but don't have time
now and need to figure out where is the best place to do that -
let me know if you have any suggestions.
I'm sure there are other things, but can't remember them all now...
Tom
