Hi:

I'm running Indiana (OpenSolaris developer preview) under parallels
in OS X 10.5.1. I can consistently get Solaris to hang.

Doing a
dtrace -n pid\$target::malloc:entry'[EMAIL PROTECTED]()}' -c ls

will consistently hang Solaris.

Basically doing anything with PID provider with the
-c option seems to hangs Solaris. Only way to recover
is to stop and start Parallels desktop.

The same D one liner on a running process works just fine. (ie)
dtrace -n pid1234::malloc:entry'[EMAIL PROTECTED]()}' has no problem.

I tried to look at Parallels during the hang using pid provider in
OS X and I see it is doing a bunch of ioctl's on /dev/vm-main

 From within Solaris if I start dtrace under truss, then I find the last
thing truss was able to record is a bunch of preads. I have the
output from truss if anyone is interested. (its 180K)

This could not have happened at the worse time. I was before
an important ISV showing off DTrace and how stable it is and
it hangs on me!

Any help on debugging this would be great.

Thanks

Angelo
