Is this part of dtrace script syntax, or is a "provider" file actually a
disjoint syntax only used by the static-prep tool?
What are the constraints on the types you can specify here?
Anything that goes in a C99 prototype?
In script language, what type does "arg1" have? Is it just a scalar, or
could you do something to dereference that pointer? If so, cna you do
something complex with e.g. struct types, etc.?
Thanks,
Roland
