Re: Run system tap with a user defined function

[Yeshpal Jain <jainyeshpal@gmail.com>]

Thanks for your reply,
Is there a way i can add my header path in stap common so that it looks in
my header path, when i try to add a header it is erroring out because other
files in myheader.h are not accessible, if somehow i can include the header
path in compilation command then that should resolve this problem.
Below is the command which stap will execute.
