How about declassifying > certain userspace information right from there? That might bring systemtap > closer to the sysadmins. Unless I'm forgetting something, systemtap can't really access procfs. We can add additional information to procfs (via procfs probes), but we really can't access other parts of procfs. If procfs was a real filesystem, we might be able to traverse it inside a systemtap module, but even then once we found the right file we wouldn't be able to open it and read it. Until we can think of a good way to accomplish this, I'm going to reclose this one. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
