ktap is a script-based dynamic tracing tool for Linux
|
|
It uses a scripting language and lets users trace the Linux
|
kernel dynamically. ktap is designed to give operational
|
insights with interoperability that allows users to tune,
|
troubleshoot and extend kernel and application.
|
It's similar to Linux Systemtap and Solaris Dtrace.
|
|
ktap doesn't support kernels older than 3.1.
|
|
To be able to resolve symbols in DSO and for sdt, you need to
|
enable elfutils.
|
|
Your kernel must have CONFIG_EVENT_TRACING,
|
CONFIG_PERF_EVENTS, and CONFIG_DEBUG_FS enabled to compile.
|
|
Buildroot automatically enables these in the kernel
|
configuration.
