| ktap is a script-based dynamic tracing tool for Linux |
| |
| It uses a scripting language and lets users trace the Linux |
| kernel dynamically. ktap is designed to give operational |
| insights with interoperability that allows users to tune, |
| troubleshoot and extend kernel and application. |
| It's similar to Linux Systemtap and Solaris Dtrace. |
| |
| ktap doesn't support kernels older than 3.1. |
| |
| To be able to resolve symbols in DSO and for sdt, you need to |
| enable elfutils. |
| |
| Your kernel must have CONFIG_EVENT_TRACING, |
| CONFIG_PERF_EVENTS, and CONFIG_DEBUG_FS enabled to compile. |
| |
| Buildroot automatically enables these in the kernel |
| configuration. |
