Hello,

I'm trying to debug an issue with rpc.metad on Solaris 10, basecally I 
believe the failure path is

- svc_init
-- check_sys
--- check_host
---- strcmp(hostname, mynode())

It seems that for some reason hostname and mynode didn't match then I 
would like to use dtrace to show the argument of the strcmp
However the dtrace pid provider  can't trace functions check_sys and 
check_host even if they are defined in rpc.metad

bash-3.00# ps -ef | grep metad
 root  5462     1   0 08:20:40 ?           0:00 /usr/sbin/rpc.metad

bash-3.00# /usr/sbin/dtrace -F -n 'pid$target:rpc.metad:check_host:entry 
{printf("%d %d %d", arg0, arg1, arg2)}' -p 5462
dtrace: invalid probe specifier pid$target:rpc.metad:check_host:entry 
{printf("%d %d %d", arg0, arg1, arg2)}: failed to lookup 'check_host'

bash-3.00# dtrace -l | grep pid5462 | grep check_host
bash-3.00# dtrace -l | grep pid5462 | grep svc_init
39969    pid5462         rpc.metad                          svc_init entry
39971    pid5462         rpc.metad                          svc_init return

While on mdb I can successfully put a breakpoint on check_host call:

May be that I miss some concept that explain this behaviour. Could you 
advice?
