has anyone done anonymous dtrace on smartos? I'm guessing I probably need to make the resulting dtrace.conf file (from dtrace -A) into a boot module, but not sure if there's more to it or some other trick

That should be it. And a forceload.

ahh.. so also make /etc/system a boot module too..

(w/ the forceload statements)

I don't believe you need anything in /etc/system.

Forceload usually goes in the module's .conf.

oh hrm.. i always remember them being in /etc/system

but it's been a long time since i've had to mess w/ them...

No, generally it's a 'ddi-forceattach=1' in the .conf.

That's what happens in all the USB HCDs, etc.

jbk I have followed the instructions in wesolows.dtrace.org/2013/12/28/anonymous-tracing-on-smartos before. Which reminds me that I need to start an IPD that will help with a mechanism to make this transparent.

ahh nice... looks like i was pretty much on the right path..

didn't have enough time last night to start on it, but hopefully will be able to get to it sometime this week

i had tried to use kmdb to track down my kcf issue, but it's happening far enough in the boot process where a bunch of kernel threads are running (and I think at least some userland), so while tracing one thread, a different thread causes the panic (and the context I'm trying to look at is gone by then)

but not so late enough I can login to the console and run dtrace

so anonymous dtrace seems like a better option

(and probably more fun too, and since this is just a personal project... at least for now)

That is the kind of thing I'd look to anonymous DTrace for.

@Woodstock do these need driver_aliases entries in packaging? Or does that come in a subsequent push?

i have no idea :)

i don't see any new driver_aliases for those in omnios, which is were these commits were coming from

Ahh beautiful. Thank you.

code.illumos.org/c/illumos-gate/+/3154 has pkg manifest updates.

yes, but thats an entirely different driver :)

hm. i just found the missing driver_aliases entries.

i guess whoever used these cards with omnios added them themselves.

Wow.

File a followup, if nobody noticed with Omni, nobody will notice with -gate.

And don't make it a high-priority.
