             Bug #: 14491
           Summary: Add a proper stapdyn transport layer
           Product: systemtap
           Version: unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: runtime
        AssignedTo: systemtap@sourceware.org
        ReportedBy: jistone@redhat.com
            Blocks: 14178
    Classification: Unclassified


Right now there's not transport layer at all in stapdyn.  Communication is only
going stapdyn->module via inferior calls, and script output is writing directly
on the target's stdout/err.

We really need a means for bidirectional communication, both for control
messages and for general script output.  For a first draft, I propose listening
on a socket in stapdyn, opening that in the target with an inferior call, and
then send messages just as we do with staprun and kernel modules.
