It's been a while (~ 4-6 months) since I've last used dtrace. Needing to
use it again today scripts that worked before fail to.
A first example:
cwfw# cat dt10.d
#!/usr/sbin/dtrace -s
fbt::ipf_check:entry {
parintf("%x\n", (void) arg[1]);
}
cwfw#
Results in this error:
cwfw# ./dt10.d
dtrace: failed to compile script ./dt10.d: "/usr/lib/dtrace/psinfo.d", line
1: cannot translate from "struct thread *" to "lwpsinfo_t *"
cwfw#
Another example,
slippy# cat dtrace.d
#!/usr/sbin/dtrace -s
fbt::uma_reclaim:entry {
printf("in uma_reclaim\n");
}
slippy#
Results in the same error:
slippy# ./dtrace.d
dtrace: failed to compile script ./dtrace.d: "/usr/lib/dtrace/psinfo.d",
line 1: cannot translate from "struct thread *" to "lwpsinfo_t *"
slippy#
A variation of the second example,
slippy# cat dtrace.sh
#!/bin/sh -
dtrace -n 'fbt::uma_reclaim:entry { printf("in uma_reclaim\n"); }'
slippy#
Results in two errors, the first being that the -n option results in an
invalid probe specified and the second being the struct thread * error.
slippy# ./dtrace.sh
dtrace: invalid probe specifier fbt::uma_reclaim:entry { printf("in
uma_reclaim\n"); }: "/usr/lib/dtrace/psinfo.d", line 1: cannot translate
from "struct thread *" to "lwpsinfo_t *"
slippy#
I'm not sure if this is related to 2d5d2a986ce or something else.
