Bug ID: 20203
Summary: library search path for process("libFOO.so")
probes
Product: systemtap
Version: unspecified
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: translator
Assignee: systemtap at sourceware dot org
Reporter: fche at redhat dot com
Target Milestone: ---
For cross-distro scripts, it's desirable to be able to probe a shared library
by its SONAME/basename pattern alone rather than its full path. (On debian vs.
fedora, a different set of /lib /lib64 vs. /lib/i386 /lib/x86_64 rules apply.)
stap should support an abbreviated reference to process("libFOO.so.*") kind of
the same way it does process("BINARY"). The latter searches $PATH; the former
could search $LD_LIBRARY_PATH as well as some platform-specific search path.
(It could conceivably expand to both 32- and 64-bit variants of a shared
library.)
