dtrace

I cannot use the script from ZFS dtrace scripts to print the correct value of zfs_dirty_data_max, and the output is as follows: CPU ID FUNCTION:NAME 2 85224 none:txg-syncing 41MB of 0MB used 0 85224 none:txg-syncing 25MB of...

Hi all, TLDR; I want to print out a complicated struct in a human readable way dtrace. I could manually add in the struct, but there are several nested structs and that gets messy and difficult to replicate very quickly. How does one do this? Detailed: I am trying to display the print a...

Hi all, I've spent about a week learning and using the DTrace framework and it has worked fantastic. I have also become increasingly familiar with FreeBSD (specifically the kernel) over the last couple of months, but I realize I might still be unaware about a lot of things, so forgive any...

Hi, I'm running minecraft server on an older 32 core AMD server. I've been running 1.12.2 successfully for some time now and any given Minecraft instance only uses a fraction of a percent of CPU time with no users, and usually only a percent or two with 2-3 users. I've started running...

Hello! I'm working on a problem and I don't know how to find out more about it! I'm having an application that is hanging at a certain point on my production system and in top it is listed as usem (screenshot attached). If it is helpful, the processing that is hanging is part of a...

Hi guys, Prompted by a recent thread I start to study dtrace, my first impression is : amazing tool ! I found some things perplexing though; I would like to know if any of you know something about it. 1] I don't find the pid provider. It should be there, at least according to this old page. I...

Problem #1 I have a dtrace script which counts 2 aggregates - one aggregates the number of read bytes (@rb), the other, the number of write bytes (@wb). I want to print the output: "@rb, @wb, (100 * @rb) / @wb (ratio as percentage)" Simply outputting an aggregate by itself is easy, but I...

Hi, I want to get some specific I/O data from FreeBSD. IOStat command does not return what I want, so I think about using dtrace. The problem is that I am getting this error while executing dtrace command: [2.3.1-RELEASE][admin@machine]/usr/share/dtrace: dtrace -s iotime.d dtrace: failed to...

I see DTrace Probes offered as a compile-time option/flag on many ports, and it's selected by default on the very vast majority of the ports for which it's available... As far as I can understand, though, DTrace Probes is just a debugging facility... I never programmed enough to really get...

I do not see the function ifhwioctl listed when I run dtrace -l. This function is located in /usr/src/sys/net/if.c. I thought maybe this was optimized out, so I set the following in my /etc/make.conf CFLAGS= -O0 -fno-inline But it is still not listed. What may be causing this lack of probe?

Is there a way to execute an if-statement only based on if a function exists in the stack? Something like this: fbt:kernel:ieee80211-whatever-here:entry{ if (myfunction is in the stack) { // Do a print here } } I am trying to monitor a function call in the ieee80211 stack and...

I am trying to run dtrace against the function rtwn_pci_write_1 )http://src.illumos.org/source/xref/freebsd-head/sys/dev/rtwn/pci/rtwn_pci_reg.c#55). It is located in if_rtwn_pci. Prior to loading the module, there is no probe available for rtwn_pci_write_1, so I cannot use dtrace yet. However...

Recently, I started learning to use smartctl to monitor the health of SSD on my server. I am using Intel Solid State Drive 120GB M.2 120 1-Inch SSDSCKJW120H601. The server is for internal use only so I expect there would be only a few data written to SSD per day. However, after I run smartctl -a...
