NAME¶
dtrace - Dtrace compatibile user application static probe generation tool.SYNOPSIS¶
dtrace -s file [OPTIONS]DESCRIPTION¶
The dtrace command converts probe descriptions defined in file.d into a probe header file via the -h option or a probe description file via the -G option.OPTIONS¶
- -h
- generate a systemtap header file.
- -G
- generate a systemtap probe definition object file.
- -o file
- is the name of the output file. If the -G option is
given then the output file will be called file.o; if the -h
option is given then the output file will be called file.h.
- -C
- run the cpp preprocessor on the input file when the
-h option is given.
- -I file
- give this include path to cpp when the -C option is
given.
- -k
- keep temporary files, for example the C language source for
the -G option.
- --types
- generate probe argument typedef information when the
-h option is given.
EXAMPLES¶
Systemtap is source compatible with dtrace user application static probe support. Given a file test.d containing:provider sdt_probes
{
probe test_0 (int type);
probe test_1 (struct astruct node);
};
struct astruct {int a; int b;};
#include "test.h" ... struct astruct s; ... SDT_PROBES_TEST_0(value); ... SDT_PROBES_TEST_1(s);
