[Bug translator/11644] New: process(PID).function/statement probes

- Reply-to: sourceware-bugzilla at sourceware dot org
We currently reject process(PID) probes except for basic utrace events,
but we don't need to. We can interpret PID as /proc/PID/exe for
.function/.statement() probe purposes, and rely on the existing symlink
resolution code to find the right executable (not shared library).
For client/server however, this would not work directly, as no PID
may exist at the server, or in any case it may have nothing to do
with the client's. So the client may have to rewrite the script, or
the server may need to reject process(PID).statement/.function().
