Sorry, but SystemTap still isn't as stable as DTrace and can't trace userland. The amount of work which went in KProbes is, indeed, admirable.
But Sun after few years of work have production ready, useful product. And Linux people have not. Get that into your head.
Similar thing with ZFS. Solaris have it production ready, five years after first commit. Will we have something comparable in 2011? Doubtful.
