excellent stuff Andy!
To start with the obvious :)
Due to the lack of ustack helper, I am hoping to add a stack probe
Two things: first of all DTrace could really benefit from a
general purpose mechanism of hooking up custom stack helpers
with the rest of the system. Frankly, the way jstack is done
doesn't strike me as too generic a mechanism.
Second, I would like to encourage those who do DTrace integration
into Perl to take a look at what JavaScript is doing. They don't
have a custom stack helper either but the set of probes they offer
makes stack synthesis a trivial (albeit costly) matter.
Thanks,
Roman.
Yeah, I'm pondering (naively) the idea of activating the perl debugger
using isenabled.
