Do you really mean "this" or do you mean "self?" The latter is the
one that is tied to a thread and spans action blocks. The former gets
discarded at the end of the current action (and wouldn't be useful for
saving data between function entry and return, for example).

Typically, when I assign a variable in dtrace, I cast it first, like
this:
fbt::foo:entry
{
self->vpp = (vnode_t **)arg0;
}
fbt::foo:return
/self->vpp/
{
printf("zfs_lookup: %d", (*self->vpp)->v_count);
self->vpp = 0;
}
