             Bug #: 14275
           Summary: Possible hotspot.function(" ") style probes
           Product: systemtap
           Version: unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: uprobes
        AssignedTo: systemtap@sourceware.org
        ReportedBy: lberk@redhat.com
    Classification: Unclassified


Currently there is no good way to gain information on a per-function basis in
java, we have to resort to probing method_entry's and then checking against the
fuction name to confirm the correct function before we dive deeper.  This
should be much more simple for the user. Perhaps a stap -e 'probe
hotspot.function("foo")' or stap -e 'probe process("java").function("foo")'

Idealy this would be just as easy as probing functions in C/C++
