SYSTEMTAP EXAMPLES INDEX
(see also keyword-index.txt)
general/graphs.stp - Graphing Disk and CPU Utilization
keywords: disk cpu use graph
The script tracks the disk and CPU utilization. The resulting output
of the script can be piped into gnuplot to generate a graph of disk
and CPU USE.
general/helloworld.stp - SystemTap "Hello World" Program
keywords: simple
A basic "Hello World" program implemented in SystemTap script. It
prints out "hello world" message and then immediately exits.
general/para-callgraph.stp - Callgraph tracing with arguments
keywords: trace callgraph
Print a timed per-thread callgraph, complete with function parameters
and return values. The first parameter names the function probe
points to trace. The optional second parameter names the probe
points for trigger functions, which acts to enable tracing for only
those functions that occur while the current thread is nested within
the trigger.
interrupt/scf.stp - Tally Backtraces for Inter-Processor Interrupt (IPI)
keywords: interrupt backtrace
The Linux kernel function smp_call_function causes expensive
inter-processor interrupts (IPIs). The scf.stp script tallies the
processes and backtraces causing the interprocessor interrupts to
identify the cause of the expensive IPI. On exit the script prints
the tallies in descending frequency.
io/disktop.stp - Summarize Disk Read/Write Traffic
keywords: disk
Get the status of reading/writing disk every 5 seconds, output top
ten entries during that period.
io/io_submit.stp - Tally Reschedule Reason During AIO io_submit Call
keywords: io backtrace
When a reschedule occurs during an AIO io_submit call, accumulate the
traceback in a histogram. When the script exits prints out a sorted
list from most common to least common backtrace.
io/iotime.stp - Trace Time Spent in Read and Write for Files
keywords: syscall read write time io
The script watches each open, close, read, and write syscalls on the
system. For each file the scripts observes opened it accumulates the
amount of wall clock time spend in read and write operations and the
number of bytes read and written. When a file is closed the script
prints out a pair of lines for the file. Both lines begin with a
timestamp in microseconds, the PID number, and the executable name in
parenthesese. The first line with the "access" keyword lists the file
name, the attempted number of bytes for the read and write
operations. The second line with the "iotime" keyword list the file
name and the number of microseconds accumulated in the read and write
syscalls.
io/iotop.stp - Periodically Print I/O Activity by Process Name
keywords: io
Every five seconds print out the top ten executables generating I/O
traffic during that interval sorted in descending order.
io/traceio.stp - Track Cumulative I/O Activity by Process Name
keywords: io
Every second print out the top ten executables sorted in descending
order based on cumulative I/O traffic observed.
io/traceio2.stp - Watch I/O Activity on a Particular Device
keywords: io
Print out the executable name and process number as reads and writes
to the specified device occur.
network/nettop.stp - Periodic Listing of Processes Using Network Interfaces
keywords: network traffic per-process
Every five seconds the nettop.stp script prints out a list of
processed (PID and command) with the number of packets sent/received
and the amount of data sent/received by the process during that
interval.
network/socket-trace.stp - Trace Functions called in Network Socket Code
keywords: network socket
The script instrument each of the functions inn the Linux kernel's
net/socket.c file. The script prints out trace. The first element of
a line is time delta in microseconds from the previous entry. This
is followed by the command name and the PID. The "->" and "<-"
indicates function entry and function exit, respectively. The last
element of the line is the function name.
network/tcp_connections.stp - Track Creation of Incoming TCP Connections
keywords: network tcp socket
The tcp_connections.stp script prints information for each new
incoming TCP connection accepted by the computer. The information
includes the UID, the command accepting the connection, the PID of
the command, the port the connection is on, and the IP address of the
originator of the request.
process/futexes.stp - System-Wide Futex Contention
keywords: syscall locking futex
The script watches the futex syscall on the system. On exit the
futexes address, the number of contentions, and the average time for
each contention on the futex are printed from lowest pid number to
highest.
process/pf2.stp - Profile kernel functions
keywords: profiling
The pf2.stp script sets up time-based sampling. Every five seconds it
prints out a sorted list with the top ten kernel functions with
samples.
process/sig_by_pid.stp - Signal Counts by Process ID
keywords: signals
Print signal counts by process ID in descending order.
process/sig_by_proc.stp - Signal Counts by Process Name
keywords: signals
Print signal counts by process name in descending order.
process/sigkill.stp - Track SIGKILL Signals
keywords: signals
The script traces any SIGKILL signals. When that SIGKILL signal is
sent to a process, the script prints out the signal name, the
desination executable and process ID, the executable name user ID
that sent the signal.
process/syscalls_by_pid.stp - System-Wide Count of Syscalls by PID
keywords: signals
The script watches for a particular signal sent to a specific
process. When that signal is sent to the specified process, the
script prints out the PID and executable of the process sending the
signal, the PID and executable name of the process receiving the
signal, and the signal number and name.
process/sleepingBeauties.stp - Generating Backtraces of Threads Waiting for IO Operations
keywords: io scheduler backtrace
The script monitors the time that threads spend waiting for IO
operations (in "D" state) in the wait_for_completion function. If a
thread spends over 10ms, its name and backtrace is printed, and later
so is the total delay.
process/sleeptime.stp - Trace Time Spent in nanosleep Syscalls
keywords: syscall sleep
The script watches each nanosleep syscall on the system. At the end
of each nanosleep syscall the script prints out a line with a
timestamp in microseconds, the pid, the executable name in
paretheses, the "nanosleep:" key, and the duration of the sleep in
microseconds.
process/syscalls_by_pid.stp - System-Wide Count of Syscalls by PID
keywords: syscall
The script watches all syscall on the system. On exit the script
prints a list showing the number of systemcalls executed by each PID
ordered from greatest to least number of syscalls.
process/syscalls_by_proc.stp - System-Wide Count of Syscalls by Executable
keywords: syscall
The script watches all syscall on the system. On exit the script
prints a list showing the number of systemcalls executed by each
executable ordered from greates to least number of syscalls.
process/wait4time.stp - Trace Time Spent in wait4 Syscalls
keywords: syscall wait4
The script watches each wait4 syscall on the system. At the end of
each wait4 syscall the script prints out a line with a timestamp in
microseconds, the pid, the executable name in paretheses, the
"wait4:" key, the duration of the wait and the PID that the wait4 was
waiting for. If the waited for PID is not specified , it is "-1".
profiling/functioncallcount.stp - Count Times Functions Called
keywords: profiling functions
The functioncallcount.stp script takes one argument, a list of
functions to probe. The script will run and count the number of times
that each of the functions on the list is called. On exit the script
will print a sorted list from most frequently to least frequently
called function.
profiling/thread-times.stp - Profile kernel functions
keywords: profiling
The thread-times.stp script sets up time-based sampling. Every five
seconds it prints out a sorted list with the top twenty processes
with samples broken down into percentage total time spent in
user-space and kernel-space.
profiling/timeout.stp - Show Processes Doing Polling Operations
keywords: profiling
The timeout.stp script is based on a blog entry
(http://udrepper.livejournal.com/19041.html) mentioning a need for a
tool to help developers find applications that are polling. The
timeout.stp script monitors systemcall used for polling and records
the systemcalls that timed out rather than returned because some
action occurred. The script updates the screen once a second with the
top twenty processes.
