DESCRIPTION
|
|
-----------
|

|
|
and C local variables) with debuginfo.

PROBE SYNTAX
|
|
------------
|
|
Probe points are defined by following syntax.
|
|
|
|
"FUNC[+OFFS|:RLN|%return][@SRC]|SRC:ALN [ARG ...]"
|
|
|
|
'FUNC' specifies a probed function name, and it may have one of the following options; '+OFFS' is the offset from function entry address in bytes, 'RLN' is the relative-line number from function entry line, and '%return' means that it probes function return. In addition, 'SRC' specifies a source file which has that function.
|
|
It is also possible to specify a probe point by the source line number by using 'SRC:ALN' syntax, where 'SRC' is the source file path and 'ALN' is the line number.
|
|
'ARG' specifies the arguments of this probe point. You can use the name of local variable, or kprobe-tracer argument format (e.g. $retval, %ax, etc).
