* PR10650: markup some unprivileged-safe tapset functionsFrank Ch. Eigler2009-09-161-0/+17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add /* unprivileged */ to a variety of tapset embedded-c functions, together with uid-assertion-checking code as needed. This is only an initial set, and may need to grow or shrink after further testing. Prototyped-By: Dave Brolley <brolley@redhat.com> * runtime/runtime.h (is_myproc, assert_is_myproc): New macros. * runtime/addr-map.c (lookup_bad_addr): Reject if !is_myproc in unprivileged mode. * runtime/print.c (_stp_print_kernel_info): Add unprivileged mode info. * tapset/DEVGUIDE: Document /* pure */ and /* unprivileged */. * tapset/*.stp: Add /* unprivileged */ here and there, in questionable cases along with an assert_is_myproc().
* PR9953: split up the two process.* tapsetsJosh Stone2009-04-141-3/+3
| | | | | | | The overlapping process.* tapsets are now separated. Those probe points documented in stapprobes(3stap) remain the same. Those that were formerly in stapprobes.process(3stap) have been renamed to kprocess, to reflect their kernel perspective on processes.
* Update guidelines for the ChangeLog-less worldJosh Stone2009-02-191-8/+1
| | | | | | | | | | Getting rid of ChangeLogs doesn't mean that we get a free ticket -- we now need to be more diligent about providing meaningful commit messages. I've updated the HACKING file with a first draft of new guidelines, but we may still revise what we feel is appropriate detail in the logs. I removed the ChangeLog section from the tapset/DEVGIDE entirely, and also fixed the path where examples are stored.
