            Bug ID: 34320
           Summary: improve runtime error messages: provide active probe
                    context / call site if possible
           Product: systemtap
           Version: unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: runtime
          Assignee: systemtap at sourceware dot org
          Reporter: fche at redhat dot com
  Target Milestone: ---

There are some variables in the context-> struct at runtime that may allow
errors to get a little more context to the user.  An error inside a tapset
function (see bug #34301 e.g.) does not help someone figure out which call from
which probe triggered the problem.  Doing a full traceback is probably out of
the question, but some extra info would be nice.
