The probes are not provided on all architectures (and only partially by the x86 assembly implementation), and we are not aware of actual uses of these probes. a need for them.

Systemtap is a dynamic tracing/instrumenting tool available on Linux. Probes
|
|
that are not fired at run time have close to zero overhead.
|
|
|
|
The following probes are available for NPTL:
|
|
|
|
Thread creation & Join Probes
|
|
=============================
|
|
pthread_create - probe for pthread_create
|
|
arg1 = pointer (pthread_t*) to thread
|
|
arg2 = pointer (pthread_attr_t*) to attr
|
|
arg3 = pointer (void *) to start_routine
|
|
arg4 = arguments to start_routine
|
|
pthread_start - probe for actual thread creation
|
|
arg1 = struct pthread (members include thread ID, process ID)
|
|
arg2 = address of start_routine
|
|
arg3 = pointer to the list of arguments
|
|
pthread_join - probe for pthread_join
|
|
arg1 = thread ID
|
|
pthread_join_ret - probe for pthread_join return
|
|
arg1 = thread ID
|
|
arg2 = return value
|
|
|
|

|
|
===================
|
|
mutex_init - probe for pthread_mutex_init
|
|
arg1 = address of mutex lock
|

|
|
arg1 = address of mutex lock
|
|
mutex_timedlock_acquired - probe for succ. return of pthread_mutex_timedlock
|
|
arg1 = address of mutex lock
|
|
mutex_entry - probe for entry to the pthread_mutex_lock function
|
|
arg1 = address of mutex lock
|
|
mutex_timedlock_entry - probe for entry to the pthread_mutex_timedlock function
|
|
arg1 = address of mutex lock, arg2 = address of timespec
|
|

|
|
mutex lock
|
|
arg1 = address of mutex lock
|
|

|
|
arg1 = address of rw lock
|
|
rdlock_entry - probe for entry to the pthread_rwlock_rdlock function
|
|
arg1 = address of rw lock
|
|
|
|
rwlock_destroy - probe for pthread_rwlock_destroy

|
|
arg1 = address of rw lock
|
|
rdlock_acquire_read - probe for pthread_rwlock_rdlock after successfully getting
|
|
the lock
