> * running stap without a make install
This is not a great idea. git commit af29024 offers this advice:
configure:
configure: For a private or temporary build of systemtap, we recommend
configure: configuring with a prefix. For example, try
configure: ../systemtap3/configure --prefix=/home/fche/systemtap-0.8-12350
configure: Running systemtap uninstalled, entirely out of the build tree,
configure: is not supported.
> * stap -r /BUILD/TREE should work better
> This is bug #5892, with some extras. q.v.
Fixed (better -r option).
> * make verbosity a pass-dependent thing
Fixed (--vp option).
> * let stap find staprun and stapio in $PATH too
Unnecessary if people are willing to follow --prefix advice.
> * make staprun clean up before & after itself better w.r.t.
> loaded modules if something with stapio goes wrong
commit c94a9cb3 attempts to unload modules left over by a stap*
crash or SIGKILL, so that a subsequent stap run will work.
