- Reply-to: sourceware-bugzilla at sourceware dot org
We now have some process(PID).* and process("NAME").* probes. This could be
extended to join the existing "stap -c CMD" / "stap -x PID" process targeting
facility:
* extend the task-finder logic to restrict its scanning of tasks to the
staprun-given target-pid (and its descendants) only
* permit process.* utrace probes (i.e., not parametrized with "NAME" or PID,
implicitly referring to the target-pid (and its descendants)
The "and its descendants" qualifier may need to be an option rather than
be hard-coded.
