(PS: another idea that comes along the same lines as a dumper function and IMO
would be helpful is an 'introspect' function. Given an argument:
introspect(probefunc)
it returns back the expected arguments for the probe func, their
datastructures, as well as the syntax on how to dereference them. If an
intelligent copyinstr comes out, this would be easy to write, and would solve a
ton of problems with using the syscall providers. I hesitate to say that
scripts would write themselves, but it sure would beat bouncing back and forth
between documentation and code (documentation which may be out of sync with the
current version of dtrace that you are using)
)
