[Bug documentation/6819] New: stapprobes(5) - syntactically (in)valid probepoints
- From: "jkenisto at us dot ibm dot com" <sourceware-bugzilla at sourceware dot org>

- Reply-to: sourceware-bugzilla at sourceware dot org
The stapprobes(5) man page says:
These are all syntactically valid probe points:
...
syscall(22)
user.inode("/bin/vi").statement(0x2222)
...
These may be valid syntactically, but not semantically -- i.e., they're not
known to the translator or defined in any tapset. So they're confusing to new
users. The user.inode example could now be replaced with a
process("/bin/vi")... example.
