Introducing utrace.. Posted Mar 8, 2007 3:34 UTC (Thu) by AdHoc (subscriber, #1115) [Link] I was going to ask how this compares to dtrace. With proper userspace support, with this eventually allow similar tracing?
Introducing utrace.. Posted Mar 8, 2007 3:49 UTC (Thu) by danpb (subscriber, #4831) [Link] There is already an open source tool providing many of the DTrace capabilities called SystemTap which was started a couple of years ago by a group of developers from Red Hat, IBM, Intel & Hitachi:
http://sourceware.org/systemtap/
Currently SystemTap is focused on kernelspace probing, via the kprobes capability. This new UTrace infrastructure has potential as a way to let SystemTap probe userspace too. Another project which may be able to make use of UTrace is Frysk, which is a broader userspace debugger / execution analysis tool:

Just not GPL-compatable.
