[...] Each of them is small and interesting enough that time taken to play with them all won't be wasted. They are different in many ways, and have different capabilities / restrictions, but each should roughly be able to do what you need. http://sourceware.org/systemtap/wiki/SystemtapDtraceComparison For purposes of avoiding peppering code with tracing statements, I suspect systemtap would be the easiest, in theory: # stap -e 'probe process.statement("function@foo/bar.c:2322") { printf("var1=%d var2=%s\n", $var1, user_string($var2)) }' -c "./a.out ARGS" - FChE -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
