Hi -
Ever since the translator started settling down, it's been time to
start building tapsets. There are a number of bugzilla entries to
track people who volunteered to focus on some area or other, and there
are other areas/people not listed yet. Have these efforts gotten
substantially underway yet? If not, can we please have any
unsatisfied prerequisites noted?
907 varap@us.ibm.com System call tracing
908 wcohen@redhat.com Tapset: scheduler
909 brad.chen@intel.com Performance monitoring based on hw events
910 wcohen@redhat.com Tapset: performance monitoring based on timers
911 varap@us.ibm.com Tapset: I/O <-> VM interaction in device drivers
1160 wcohen@redhat.com sample systemtap scripts
1154 fche@redhat.com procfs interaction tapset

For 908 I have noted the dependency on instrument inline functions, bz922

You mean bug #1155. Since that one is unlikely to be solved entirely
and soon, one should go ahead and construct as much instrumentation as
one can using other mechanisms that work (other probe points, pulling
values from other variables rather than function arguments,
approximating as needed), even if they are not ideal. One should also
retain, perhaps commented out like in system_calls.stp, those parts
that should someday work but don't yet.
