= BACKTRACE =

interrupt/scf.stp - Tally Backtraces for Inter-Processor Interrupt (IPI)
keywords: interrupt backtrace

  The Linux kernel function smp_call_function causes expensive
  inter-processor interrupts (IPIs). The scf.stp script tallies the
  processes and backtraces causing the interprocessor interrupts to
  identify the cause of the expensive IPI. On exit the script prints
  the tallies in descending frequency.


io/io_submit.stp - Tally Reschedule Reason During AIO io_submit Call
keywords: io backtrace

  When a reschedule occurs during an AIO io_submit call, accumulate the
  traceback in a histogram. When the script exits prints out a sorted
  list from most common to least common backtrace.


process/sleepingBeauties.stp - Generating Backtraces of Threads Waiting for IO Operations
keywords: io scheduler backtrace

  The script monitors the time that threads spend waiting for IO
  operations (in "D" state) in the wait_for_completion function.  If a
  thread spends over 10ms, its name and backtrace is printed, and later
  so is the total delay.


= CALLGRAPH =

general/para-callgraph.stp - Callgraph tracing with arguments
keywords: trace callgraph

  Print a timed per-thread callgraph, complete with function parameters
  and return values.  The first parameter names the function probe
  points to trace.  The optional second parameter names the probe
  points for trigger functions, which acts to enable tracing for only
  those functions that occur while the current thread is nested within
  the trigger.

  prints out a pair of lines for the file. Both lines begin with a
  timestamp in microseconds, the PID number, and the executable name in
  parenthesese. The first line with the "access" keyword lists the file
