Adds initial support for dtrace static probes in libvirtd
daemon, assuming use of systemtap dtrace compat shim on
Linux. The probes are inserted for network client connect,
disconnect, TLS handshake states and authentication protocol
states.
This can be tested by running the xample program and then
attempting to connect with any libvirt client (virsh,
virt-manager, etc).
# stap examples/systemtap/client.stp
Client fd=44 connected readonly=0
Client fd=44 auth polkit deny pid:24997,uid:500
Client fd=44 disconnected
Client fd=46 connected readonly=1
Client fd=46 auth sasl allow test
Client fd=46 disconnected
For unknown reasons, libvirtd must be restarted after
the stap script is launched, otherwise the probes are
not enabled. This bug needs to be fixed, probably in
systemtap itself, to allow probing an existing running
daemon.
Wasn't that problem found ? I though so ...
The connect/disconnect events need to be augmented to
include the socket address data.
The libvirtd.stp file should also really not be required,
since it is duplicated info that is already available in
the main probes.d definition file. A script to autogenerate
the .stp file is needed, either in libvirtd tree, or better
as part of systemtap itself.
* Makefile.am: Add examples/systemtap subdir
* autobuild.sh: Disable dtrace for mingw32
* configure.ac: Add check for dtrace
* daemon/.gitignore: Ignore generated dtrace probe file
* daemon/Makefile.am: Build dtrace probe header & object
files
* daemon/libvirtd.stp: SystemTAP convenience probeset
* daemon/libvirtd.c: Add connect/disconnect & TLS probes
* daemon/remote.c: Add SASL and PolicyKit auth probes
* daemon/probes.d: Master probe definition
* daemon/libvirtd.h: Add convenience macro for probes
so that compilation is a no-op when dtrace is not available
* examples/systemtap/Makefile.am, examples/systemtap/client.stp
Example systemtap script using dtrace probe markers
* libvirt.spec.in: Enable dtrace on F13/RHEL6
* mingw32-libvirt.spec.in: Force disable dtrace
Patch looks very similar to the first version. Dunno if you want
to push the set early or wait for a more complete support check,
ACK
