NAME¶
function::probefunc - Return the probe point's function name, if known
SYNOPSIS¶
probefunc:string()
ARGUMENTS¶
None
DESCRIPTION¶
This function returns the name of the function being probed based on the current
address, as computed by symname(
addr) or usymname(
uaddr)
depending on probe context (whether the probe is a user probe or a kernel
probe).
PLEASE NOTE¶
this function's behaviour differs between SystemTap 2.0 and earlier versions.
Prior to 2.0,
probefunc obtained the function name from the probe point
string as returned by
pp, and used the current address as a fallback.
Consider using
ppfunc instead.
