Hi,
My understanding is that systemtap 1.8 supports userspace probing with
upstream kernel >=3.5. I was expecting to be able to use the same dysp
probes as with the utrace patches, but trying a simple stap scripts
such as:
probe process("./a.out").function("foo")
{ printf("hello\n"); }
fails to run:
semantic error: while resolving probe point: identifier 'process' at foo.stp:1:7
source: probe process("./a.out").function("foo")
^
semantic error: no match
Pass 2: analysis failed. Try again with another '--vp 01' option.
Is there some information I am missing ?
thanks,
David
