Description Frank Ch. Eigler 2012-04-19 11:50:32 UTC 
It would be desirable to have a syntax to express   module("*")  probe points, but where the wildcards are limited to the currently running modules.

We could take a hint from  probe process.function("...") inferring the process name from stap -c COMMAND, and interpret module.* or even moduel("*").* as restricted if --all-modules was given.
