&lt;p&gt;A basic &amp;quot;Hello World&amp;quot; program implemented in SystemTap script. It prints out &amp;quot;hello world&amp;quot; message and then immediately exits.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;-2&quot;&gt;&lt;pre&gt;# stap helloworld.stp&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;general/para-callgraph.stp&quot;&gt;general/para-callgraph.stp&lt;/a&gt; - Callgraph Tracing with Arguments&lt;br&gt;
keywords: &lt;a href=&quot;keyword-index.html#_BEST&quot;&gt;_BEST&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href=&quot;keyword-index.html#TRACE&quot;&gt;TRACE&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href=&quot;keyword-index.html#CALLGRAPH&quot;&gt;CALLGRAPH&lt;/a&gt; &lt;br&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Print a timed per-thread microsecond-timed callgraph, complete with function parameters and return values.  The first parameter names the function probe points to trace.  The optional second parameter names the probe points for trigger functions, which acts to enable tracing for only those functions that occur while the current thread is nested within the trigger.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;general/para-callgraph.txt&quot;&gt;sample usage in general/para-callgraph.txt&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;general/varwatch.stp&quot;&gt;general/varwatch.stp&lt;/a&gt; - Watch a Variable Changing Value in a Thread&lt;br&gt;
keywords: &lt;a href=&quot;keyword-index.html#_BEST&quot;&gt;_BEST&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href=&quot;keyword-index.html#MONITORING&quot;&gt;MONITORING&lt;/a&gt; &lt;br&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This script places a set of probes (specified by $1), each of which monitors the state of some context $variable expression (specified by $2).  Whenever the value changes, with respect to the active thread, the event is traced.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;general/varwatch.txt&quot;&gt;sample usage in general/varwatch.txt&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;general/whythefail.stp&quot;&gt;general/whythefail.stp&lt;/a&gt; - Why did the function fail?&lt;br&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The whythefail.stp script prints a statement-execution trace for a given function, but only for those runs of the function that ended up with a (configurable) post-return condition.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;general/whythefail.txt&quot;&gt;sample usage in general/whythefail.txt&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;network/netfilter_summary.stp&quot;&gt;network/netfilter_summary.stp&lt;/a&gt; - System-Wide Count of Network Packets by IPs&lt;br&gt;
keywords: &lt;a href=&quot;keyword-index.html#_BEST&quot;&gt;_BEST&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href=&quot;keyword-index.html#NETWORK&quot;&gt;NETWORK&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href=&quot;keyword-index.html#TRAFFIC&quot;&gt;TRAFFIC&lt;/a&gt; &lt;br&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The script watches all IPv4 network traffic on the system. On exit the script prints a list showing the number of packets sent along source IP address / destination IP address pair encountered, and the total number of bytes sent among the pair. The list is ordered from greatest to least number of packets seen among the source/destination pairs.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;network/netfilter_summary.txt&quot;&gt;sample usage in network/netfilter_summary.txt&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;network/netfilter_summary_json.stp&quot;&gt;network/netfilter_summary_json.stp&lt;/a&gt; - System-Wide Count of Network Packets by IPs&lt;br&gt;
keywords: &lt;a href=&quot;keyword-index.html#_BEST&quot;&gt;_BEST&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href=&quot;keyword-index.html#NETWORK&quot;&gt;NETWORK&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href=&quot;keyword-index.html#TRAFFIC&quot;&gt;TRAFFIC&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href=&quot;keyword-index.html#JSON&quot;&gt;JSON&lt;/a&gt; &lt;br&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The script watches all IPv4 network traffic on the system. The data is output in JSON format and includes the number of packets sent along source IP address / destination IP address pair encountered, and the total number of bytes sent among the pair.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;-2&quot;&gt;&lt;pre&gt;# stap netfilter_summary_json.stp -T 1&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;process/cycle_thief.stp&quot;&gt;process/cycle_thief.stp&lt;/a&gt; - Track IRQ's and Other Processes Stealing Cycles from a Task&lt;br&gt;
keywords: &lt;a href=&quot;keyword-index.html#_BEST&quot;&gt;_BEST&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href=&quot;keyword-index.html#PROCESS&quot;&gt;PROCESS&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href=&quot;keyword-index.html#SCHEDULER&quot;&gt;SCHEDULER&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href=&quot;keyword-index.html#TIME&quot;&gt;TIME&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href=&quot;keyword-index.html#TRACEPOINT&quot;&gt;TRACEPOINT&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href=&quot;keyword-index.html#INTERRUPT&quot;&gt;INTERRUPT&lt;/a&gt; &lt;br&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The cycle_thief.stp script instruments the scheduler and IRQ handler to determine which processes and interrupts are competing with the specified task for the cpu cycles. This script uses the &amp;#39;-c&amp;#39; or &amp;#39;-x&amp;#39; options to focus on a specific task. The script output the number of times the task migrates between processors, histograms showing the length of time on and off processor, lists of processes running while the task is off the processor, and the interrupts that occurred while the task was running.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;process/cycle_thief.txt&quot;&gt;sample usage in process/cycle_thief.txt&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;process/proctop.stp&quot;&gt;process/proctop.stp&lt;/a&gt; - Periodically Print Process Information With History&lt;br&gt;
keywords: &lt;a href=&quot;keyword-index.html#PROCESS&quot;&gt;PROCESS&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href=&quot;keyword-index.html#SCHEDULER&quot;&gt;SCHEDULER&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href=&quot;keyword-index.html#_BEST&quot;&gt;_BEST&lt;/a&gt; &lt;br&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Every 5 seconds, print out a list of 25 processes that took the most system time with information about the processes. Includes information on processes that may have exited while the script was running. The script contains configuration options listed in the script source.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;process/proctop.txt&quot;&gt;sample usage in process/proctop.txt&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;process/strace.stp&quot;&gt;process/strace.stp&lt;/a&gt; - Trace system calls&lt;br&gt;
keywords: &lt;a href=&quot;keyword-index.html#_BEST&quot;&gt;_BEST&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href=&quot;keyword-index.html#PROCESS&quot;&gt;PROCESS&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href=&quot;keyword-index.html#SYSCALL&quot;&gt;SYSCALL&lt;/a&gt; &lt;br&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The script loosely emulates strace, when applied to individual processes or hierarchies (via -c/-x), or the entire system (without -c/-x).  A few output configuration parameters may be set with -G.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;process/strace.txt&quot;&gt;sample usage in process/strace.txt&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;process/thread-business.stp&quot;&gt;process/thread-business.stp&lt;/a&gt; - monitor syscall history&lt;br&gt;
keywords: &lt;a href=&quot;keyword-index.html#_BEST&quot;&gt;_BEST&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href=&quot;keyword-index.html#PROCESS&quot;&gt;PROCESS&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href=&quot;keyword-index.html#SYSCALL&quot;&gt;SYSCALL&lt;/a&gt; &lt;br&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Prints a periodic tabular report about the counts of syscall activity of all threads on the system, along with a textual recent-syscall-history for each&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;process/thread-business.txt&quot;&gt;sample usage in process/thread-business.txt&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;profiling/fntimes.stp&quot;&gt;profiling/fntimes.stp&lt;/a&gt; - Show Functions Taking Longer Than Usual&lt;br&gt;
keywords: &lt;a href=&quot;keyword-index.html#_BEST&quot;&gt;_BEST&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href=&quot;keyword-index.html#PROFILING&quot;&gt;PROFILING&lt;/a&gt; &lt;br&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The fntimes.stp script monitors the execution time history of a given function family (assumed non-recursive).  Each time (beyond a warmup interval) is then compared to the historical maximum.  If it exceeds a certain threshold (250%), a message is printed.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;profiling/fntimes.txt&quot;&gt;sample usage in profiling/fntimes.txt&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;profiling/latencytap.stp&quot;&gt;profiling/latencytap.stp&lt;/a&gt; - Show Reasons and Durations for Processes Sleeping&lt;br&gt;
keywords: &lt;a href=&quot;keyword-index.html#_BEST&quot;&gt;_BEST&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href=&quot;keyword-index.html#PROFILING&quot;&gt;PROFILING&lt;/a&gt; &lt;br&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The latencytap.stp script collects data on the intervals processes are deactivated (sleeping).  The script categorizes the reasons for the sleeps by analyzing the backtraces and displays a sorted list of the top 20 causes from largest total sum time sleeping to smallest. The output is updated every 30 seconds. The script needs to be compiled with the &amp;#39;--all-modules&amp;#39; option to produce reasons for sleeps caused by modules.  Optionally, this script can be used with the &amp;#39;-c&amp;#39; or &amp;#39;-x&amp;#39; options to focus on a specific PID.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;profiling/latencytap.txt&quot;&gt;sample usage in profiling/latencytap.txt&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;profiling/linetimes.stp&quot;&gt;profiling/linetimes.stp&lt;/a&gt; - Show Time Spent on Each Line of a Function&lt;br&gt;
keywords: &lt;a href=&quot;keyword-index.html#PROFILING&quot;&gt;PROFILING&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href=&quot;keyword-index.html#_BEST&quot;&gt;_BEST&lt;/a&gt; &lt;br&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The linetimes.stp script takes two arguments: where to find the function and the function name. linetimes.stp will instrument each line in the function. It will print out the number of times that the function is called, a table with the average and maximum time each line takes, and control flow information when the script exits.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;profiling/linetimes.txt&quot;&gt;sample usage in profiling/linetimes.txt&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;profiling/pf4.stp&quot;&gt;profiling/pf4.stp&lt;/a&gt; - Profile Kernel/User Backtraces&lt;br&gt;
keywords: &lt;a href=&quot;keyword-index.html#_BEST&quot;&gt;_BEST&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href=&quot;keyword-index.html#PROFILING&quot;&gt;PROFILING&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href=&quot;keyword-index.html#BACKTRACE&quot;&gt;BACKTRACE&lt;/a&gt; &lt;br&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The pf4.stp script sets up time-based sampling. Every five seconds it prints out a sorted list with the top twenty kernel and/or user stack backtraces (on a per-cpu basis).  Use any of --ldd, --all-modules, -d MODULE, -d /PATH/TO/EXEC to add more symbolic info.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;profiling/pf4.txt&quot;&gt;sample usage in profiling/pf4.txt&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The thread-times.stp script sets up time-based sampling.  Every five seconds it prints out a sorted list with the top twenty threads occupying the CPUs, broken down as a percentage of user and kernel time.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;profiling/thread-times.txt&quot;&gt;sample usage in profiling/thread-times.txt&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;virtualization/kvm_service_time.stp&quot;&gt;virtualization/kvm_service_time.stp&lt;/a&gt; - Time Statistics on KVM Exit Reasons&lt;br&gt;
keywords: &lt;a href=&quot;keyword-index.html#_BEST&quot;&gt;_BEST&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href=&quot;keyword-index.html#VIRTUALIZATION&quot;&gt;VIRTUALIZATION&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href=&quot;keyword-index.html#KVM&quot;&gt;KVM&lt;/a&gt; &lt;br&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The kvm_service_time.stp script tracks the statistics about the amount of time that the processor left the guest virtual machine for each exit reason (for example fixing up a page table or handling an IO operation).  When the script exits it prints out the number of times each exit reason was encountered, the total duration of time it left the guest VM, the minimum time, the average time, and the maximum time in microseconds for that exit reason. On Linux 2.6.38 and newer kernel the script can automatically determine whether it is running on Intel or AMD processors. For older kernels with a kernel.trace(&amp;quot;kvm_exit&amp;quot;) tracepoint that does not have the $isa parameter you can explicitly state the kvm type with a &amp;quot;-G kvm=intel&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;-G kvm=amd&amp;quot; on the command line.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;virtualization/kvm_service_time.txt&quot;&gt;sample usage in virtualization/kvm_service_time.txt&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The libguestfs_log.stp script prints a log of when various libgueststartup steps are encountered.   The first column is microseconds since the script started.  The second column is the time elapsed in microseconds between the previous and current events and the third column is the event name.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;-2&quot;&gt;&lt;pre&gt;# stap libguestfs_log.stp -T 1&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;SystemTap has multiple passes to convert the text of a SystemTap script into instrumentation that actually collect data on the system.  The stap_time.stp script uses the markers in SystemTap to note the amount of time that each of the passes requires.  When SystemTap completes pass 4 (compiling the instrumentation into a kernel module) the script print out the script name followed by the amount of time in milliseconds required for Pass 0 (command line option parsing), Pass 1 (script parsing), Pass 2 (elaboration), Pass 3 (code generation), and Pass 4 (module compilation).  The resulting data can be analyzed to determine if there are issues with the amount of time that systemtap takes to generate instrumentation.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;-2&quot;&gt;&lt;pre&gt;# stap stap_time.stp -T 1&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The watchdog.stp script provides a watchdog timer mechanism for arbitrary events. The script takes three arguments: the events to start watchdog timer, the event to stop the watchdog timer, and the time in millseconds for the watchdog. If the watchdog timer is exceed, the script will trigger a stack backtrace of the user-process that timed out using pstack. This script can be used to diagnose what the userspace application is doing when a slower than expected operation occurs.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;-2&quot;&gt;&lt;pre&gt;# stap watchdog.stp &amp;#39;syscall.nanosleep&amp;#39; &amp;#39;syscall.nanosleep.return&amp;#39; 1000 \

&lt;p&gt;The Linux kernel function smp_call_function causes expensive inter-processor interrupts (IPIs). The scf.stp script tallies the processes and backtraces causing the interprocessor interrupts to identify the cause of the expensive IPI. On exit the script prints the tallies in descending frequency.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;-2&quot;&gt;&lt;pre&gt;# stap scf.stp -T 1&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;When a reschedule occurs during an AIO io_submit call, accumulate the traceback in a histogram. When the script exits prints out a sorted list from most common to least common backtrace.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;-2&quot;&gt;&lt;pre&gt;# stap io_submit.stp -T 1&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This script reports on the last few free(3) libc calls done by processes (possibly restricted by stap -x/-c), along with a userspace backtrace at those moments.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;memory/last_100_frees.txt&quot;&gt;sample usage in memory/last_100_frees.txt&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The pstrace_exec.stp script watches each exec operation. If the exec contains a substring that matches the script&amp;#39;s command-line argument, it prints out that process and all of its ancestors.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;-2&quot;&gt;&lt;pre&gt;# stap pstrace_exec.stp -T 1 bash&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The script monitors the time that threads spend in waiting for IO operations (in &amp;quot;D&amp;quot; state) in the wait_for_completion function.  If a thread spends over 10ms, its name and backtrace is printed, and later so is the total delay.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;-2&quot;&gt;&lt;pre&gt;# stap sleepingBeauties.stp -T 1&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The pf4.stp script sets up time-based sampling. Every five seconds it prints out a sorted list with the top twenty kernel and/or user stack backtraces (on a per-cpu basis).  Use any of --ldd, --all-modules, -d MODULE, -d /PATH/TO/EXEC to add more symbolic info.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;profiling/pf4.txt&quot;&gt;sample usage in profiling/pf4.txt&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The mmfilepage.stp script uses the virtual memory tracepoints available in some kernels to track the number of faults, copy on writes mapping, and unmapping operations for file backed pages. When the script is terminated the counts are printed for each process that allocated pages while the script was running. The mmfilepage.stp script is useful in debugging leaks in the mapped file regions of a process.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;-2&quot;&gt;&lt;pre&gt;# stap mmfilepage.stp -T 1&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The sk_stream-wait_memory.stp prints a time stamp, executable, and pid each time a process blocks due to the send buffer being full. A similar entry is printed each time a process continues because there is room in the buffer.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;-2&quot;&gt;&lt;pre&gt;# stap sk_stream_wait_memory.stp -T 1&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The script periodically prints a count of specified events and their related tid&amp;#39;s over the course of execution. Numerous configuration options exist to control filtering / reporting, some of which can be modified at runtime.

&lt;p&gt;This script prints the size of a type, based on dwarf debuginfo for any kernel or userspace module, or trial-compilation of a given header file name. Types and corresponding locations are provided to the script at runtime via keyboard input. The format of the input is identical to that of sizeof.stp (see script source for more information).

&lt;p&gt;The Linux kernel function smp_call_function causes expensive inter-processor interrupts (IPIs). The scf.stp script tallies the processes and backtraces causing the interprocessor interrupts to identify the cause of the expensive IPI. On exit the script prints the tallies in descending frequency.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;-2&quot;&gt;&lt;pre&gt;# stap scf.stp -T 1&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The cycle_thief.stp script instruments the scheduler and IRQ handler to determine which processes and interrupts are competing with the specified task for the cpu cycles. This script uses the &amp;#39;-c&amp;#39; or &amp;#39;-x&amp;#39; options to focus on a specific task. The script output the number of times the task migrates between processors, histograms showing the length of time on and off processor, lists of processes running while the task is off the processor, and the interrupts that occurred while the task was running.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;process/cycle_thief.txt&quot;&gt;sample usage in process/cycle_thief.txt&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;alias_suffixes.stp is a demonstration of how alias suffixes in the systemtap language might be used. The script tracks the wall clock time for each invocation of the system calls open, close, read, and write. When the script exists it prints out the minimum, average, and maximum times in microseconds for each system call, followed by a count of times that each syscall was invoked and a histogram showing the distributions of times.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;-2&quot;&gt;&lt;pre&gt;# stap alias_suffixes.stp -T 1&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The ioblktime.stp script tracks the amount of time that each block IO requests spend waiting for completion. The script computes the average waiting time for block IO per device and prints list every 10 seconds. In some cases there can be too many outstanding block IO operations and the script may exceed the default number of MAXMAPENTRIES allowed. In this case the allowed number can be increased with &amp;quot;-DMAXMAPENTRIES=10000&amp;quot; option on the stap command line.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;-2&quot;&gt;&lt;pre&gt;# stap ioblktime.stp -T 1&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The script watches each open, close, read, and write syscalls on the system. For each file the scripts observes opened it accumulates the amount of wall clock time spent in read and write operations and the number of bytes read and written. When a file is closed the script prints out a pair of lines for the file. Both lines begin with a timestamp in microseconds, the PID number, and the executable name in parentheses. The first line with the &amp;quot;access&amp;quot; keyword lists the file name, the attempted number of bytes for the read and write operations. The second line with the &amp;quot;iotime&amp;quot; keyword list the file name and the number of microseconds accumulated in the read and write syscalls.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;-2&quot;&gt;&lt;pre&gt;# stap iotime.stp -T 1&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

On Linux 2.6.38 and newer kernel the script can automatically determine whether it is running on Intel or AMD processors. For older kernels with a kernel.trace(&amp;quot;kvm_exit&amp;quot;) tracepoint that does not have the $isa parameter you can explicitly state the kvm type with a &amp;quot;-G kvm=intel&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;-G kvm=amd&amp;quot; on the command line.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;virtualization/kvm_service_time.txt&quot;&gt;sample usage in virtualization/kvm_service_time.txt&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The bkl.stp script can help determine whether the Big Kernel Lock (BKL) is causing serialization on a multiprocessor system due to excessive contention of the BKL. The bkl.stp script takes two arguments. The first one is optional, and used to enable backtraces, and print them once a process has been holding the BKL for a user specified number of nseconds is reached. The second option is compulsory and is the number of processes waiting for the Big Kernel Lock (BKL). When the number of processes waiting for the BKL is reached or exceeded, the script will print a time stamp, the number of processes waiting for the BKL, the holder of the BKL, and the amount of time the BKL was held. If backtraces are enabled, a backtrace will be printed as well.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;-2&quot;&gt;&lt;pre&gt;# stap bkl.stp -T 1 1&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The bkl_stats.stp script can indicate which processes have excessive waits for the Big Kernel Lock (BKL) and which processes are taking the BKL for long periods of time. The bkl_stats.stp script prints lists of all the processes that require the BKL. Every five seconds two tables are printed out. The first table lists the processes that waited for the BKL followed by the number of times that the process waited, the minimum time of the wait, the average and the maximum time waited. The second table lists has similar information for the time spent in holding the lock for each of the processes.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;-2&quot;&gt;&lt;pre&gt;# stap bkl_stats.stp -T 1&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

keywords: &lt;a href=&quot;keyword-index.html#MEMORY&quot;&gt;MEMORY&lt;/a&gt; &lt;br&gt;
&lt;p&gt;When a huge page is initially used by a process it must be cleared of its original contents to avoid leaking information between processes.  On x86_64 machines the huge pages are 2MB in size, 512 times larger than a normal 4KB page.  Thus, clearing a huge page can delay program execution by a hundred or more microseconds and maybe noticeable to latency sensitive programs.  This script will tally the number of times that each process triggers a huge page clear, the total time in microseconds spent clearing the pages, and the average time in microseconds of the huge page clear.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;-2&quot;&gt;&lt;pre&gt;# stap hugepage_clear_delays.stp -T 1&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

keywords: &lt;a href=&quot;keyword-index.html#MEMORY&quot;&gt;MEMORY&lt;/a&gt; &lt;br&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The kernel may attempt to group many normal sized pages into a single huge page to improve TLB performance.  This operation may take a significant amount of time and affect program performance.  You can identify if huge page collapse operations are occurring with the systemtap hugepage_collapse.stp script.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;-2&quot;&gt;&lt;pre&gt;# stap hugepage_collapse.stp -T 1&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

keywords: &lt;a href=&quot;keyword-index.html#MEMORY&quot;&gt;MEMORY&lt;/a&gt; &lt;br&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The system may attempt to reduce memory use by having two or more difference processes share the same writeable page in memory.  However, when one of the processes write to shared page that is marked copy on write (COW) the page must be duplicated and then modified.  On x86_64 machines the huge pages are 2MB in size, 512 times larger than a normal 4KB page.  Thus, copy on write operation on a huge page can delay program execution by a hundred or more microseconds and maybe noticeable to latency sensitive programs.  This script will tally the number of times that each process triggers a huge page copy on write, the total time in microseconds spent copying the pages, and the average time in microseconds of the huge page copy.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;-2&quot;&gt;&lt;pre&gt;# stap hugepage_cow_delays.stp -T 1&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

keywords: &lt;a href=&quot;keyword-index.html#MEMORY&quot;&gt;MEMORY&lt;/a&gt; &lt;br&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Because some portions of the kernel code only work with normal-sized pages the kernel may convert a huge page into a set of normal-sized pages using a split operation. This operation may be relatively expensive and noticeable to latency sensitive programs. You can identify if split operations are occurring with the systemtap hugepage_split.stp script.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;-2&quot;&gt;&lt;pre&gt;# stap hugepage_split.stp -T 1&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The measureinteval.stp script allows quick creation of instrumentation to measure quantity between different probe points, aggregate the measurements, and display the results. The first argument to the script is the quantity to measure such as time in microseconds via &amp;quot;gettimeofday_us()&amp;quot;.   There could be multiple intervals being measured concurrently and the second argument is the means to match the start probe points listed in the fourth argument with the end probes listed in the fifth argument.  The third argument is how to display the aggregated data.  The data could be displayed as a sum (@sum), an average (@avg), or a histogram (@hist_log).  The fourth and fifth arguments are lists of probes marking the start and end of an interval.  An optional sixth argument allows grouping of the intervals. One could use &amp;quot;tid()&amp;quot; for the matching argument to measure the intervals on a per-thread basis, but then use &amp;quot;execname()&amp;quot; for the optional argument to group the measurements by executable name.  If there is no sixth argument, all the intervals are aggregated into a single entry.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;-2&quot;&gt;&lt;pre&gt;# stap measureinterval.stp &amp;quot;gettimeofday_us()&amp;quot; &amp;quot;tid()&amp;quot; @sum vm.pagefault \

&lt;p&gt;The packet_contents.stp script displays the length of each network packet and its contents in both hexadecimal and ASCII. Systemtap strings are MAXSTRINGLEN in length by default which may not be enough for larger packets. In order to print larger packets, this limit can be increased by passing in the &amp;quot;-DMAXSTRINGLEN=65536&amp;quot; command line option.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;network/packet_contents.txt&quot;&gt;sample usage in network/packet_contents.txt&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The script instruments each of the functions in the Linux kernel&amp;#39;s net/socket.c file. The script prints out trace data. The first element of a line is time delta in microseconds from the previous entry. This is followed by the command name and the PID. The &amp;quot;-&amp;gt;&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;&amp;lt;-&amp;quot; indicates function entry and function exit, respectively.

&lt;p&gt;The sk_stream-wait_memory.stp prints a time stamp, executable, and pid each time a process blocks due to the send buffer being full. A similar entry is printed each time a process continues because there is room in the buffer.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;-2&quot;&gt;&lt;pre&gt;# stap sk_stream_wait_memory.stp -T 1&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The cycle_thief.stp script instruments the scheduler and IRQ handler to determine which processes and interrupts are competing with the specified task for the cpu cycles. This script uses the &amp;#39;-c&amp;#39; or &amp;#39;-x&amp;#39; options to focus on a specific task. The script output the number of times the task migrates between processors, histograms showing the length of time on and off processor, lists of processes running while the task is off the processor, and the interrupts that occurred while the task was running.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;process/cycle_thief.txt&quot;&gt;sample usage in process/cycle_thief.txt&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The schedtimes.stp script instruments the scheduler to track the amount of time that each process spends in running, sleeping, queuing, and waiting for io. On exit the script prints out the accumulated time for each state of processes observed.  Optionally, this script can be used with the &amp;#39;-c&amp;#39; or &amp;#39;-x&amp;#39; options to focus on a specific PID and its children.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;process/schedtimes.txt&quot;&gt;sample usage in process/schedtimes.txt&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The spawn_seeker.stp script every minute (and on exit) prints out the local time and sorted lists of which processes and executables spawned tasks during the previous minute. This can be useful to determine what process is creating a flurry of short-lived processes.  When a process exits its count of tasks created is added to its parent&amp;#39;s count to better account for the indirect task creation by children processes.  For more detailed examination of task creation consider using forktracker.stp.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;process/spawn_seeker.txt&quot;&gt;sample usage in process/spawn_seeker.txt&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

keywords: &lt;a href=&quot;keyword-index.html#PROFILING&quot;&gt;PROFILING&lt;/a&gt; &lt;br&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The ioctl systemcall is used to manipulate devices setting or special files.  The way that ioctl syscalls are handled depend greatly on the device the special file is associated with. Using strace to monitor the open and ioctl syscalls may not give a good indication of what kernel code is actually handling the ioctl operations.  The ioctl_handler.stp script is designed to provide more details. On exit the ioctl_handler.stp script provides a count of the ioctl syscalls for each executable run on the system. If there was some special device driver code used to handle to the ioctl, the output will have a tally of the times the function name and module was called for that executable.  The &amp;quot;--all-modules&amp;quot; option should be included on the command line so the script can provide function name information.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;-2&quot;&gt;&lt;pre&gt;# stap ioctl_handler.stp --all-modules -T 1&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The ucalls.stp script is modeled after the BCC ucalls script (https://github.com/iovisor/bcc/blob/master/tools/lib/ucalls.py) by Sasha Goldshtein. The ucalls.stp script monitors the process indicated by the -x or -c option.  When the scripts exits it prints out information about the number of times that each method is invoked for code written in Java, Perl, Php, Python, Ruby, and Tcl.  Include the word &amp;quot;syscalls&amp;quot; on the command line to count syscalls invoked by the process.  If you want latency information, include &amp;quot;latency&amp;quot; on the command line. Note that the latency option does not work for recursive functions&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;-2&quot;&gt;&lt;pre&gt;# stap ucalls.stp syscalls latency -c &amp;quot;python -c &amp;#39;print(\&amp;quot;hello world\&amp;quot;)&amp;#39; \

&lt;p&gt;The also_ran.stp script tallies each time a executable is started or a shared library is loaded for execution.  This information can be useful to determine what software is actually being used on the system.  The script makes the information available via procfs in Prometheus readable format.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;-2&quot;&gt;&lt;pre&gt;# stap also_ran.stp -T 1&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Intel processors have hardware mechanisms that will reduce the effective processors speed to avoid exceeding set thermal or power constraints. The cpu_throttle.stp script monitors when CPU throttling occurs and accumulates the amount of time in milliseconds that each processor is throttled.  The script makes the information available via procfs in Prometheus readable format.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;-2&quot;&gt;&lt;pre&gt;# stap cpu_throttle.stp -T 1&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The syscallerrorsbypid.stp script tallies syscall errors for each running process.  This information can be useful to whether there are excessive errors for various processes on the system.  The script makes the information available via procfs in Prometheus readable format.  When a process exits its data will be eliminated from the prometheus output.  To avoid exceeding the storage limitations of SystemTap older entries maybe overwritten by newer entries.  This can lead to some active process syscall error counts disappearing and/or later reappearing with a lower value.

&lt;p&gt;The chng_cpu.stp script takes an argument which is the executable name of the task it should monitor. Each time a task with that executable name is found running on a different processor, the script prints out the thread id (tid), the executable name, the processor now running the task, the thread state, and a backtrace showing the kernel functions that triggered the running of the task on the processor.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;-2&quot;&gt;&lt;pre&gt;# stap chng_cpu.stp -T 1 bash&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The cycle_thief.stp script instruments the scheduler and IRQ handler to determine which processes and interrupts are competing with the specified task for the cpu cycles. This script uses the &amp;#39;-c&amp;#39; or &amp;#39;-x&amp;#39; options to focus on a specific task. The script output the number of times the task migrates between processors, histograms showing the length of time on and off processor, lists of processes running while the task is off the processor, and the interrupts that occurred while the task was running.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;process/cycle_thief.txt&quot;&gt;sample usage in process/cycle_thief.txt&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The migrate.stp script takes an argument which is the executable name of the task it should monitor. Each time a task with that executable name migrates between processors an entry is printed with the process id (pid), the executable name, the processor off loading the task, and the process taking the task. Note that the task may or may not be executing at the time of the migration.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;-2&quot;&gt;&lt;pre&gt;# stap migrate.stp -T 1 bash&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Every 5 seconds, print out a list of 25 processes that took the most system time with information about the processes. Includes information on processes that may have exited while the script was running. The script contains configuration options listed in the script source.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;process/proctop.txt&quot;&gt;sample usage in process/proctop.txt&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The schedtimes.stp script instruments the scheduler to track the amount of time that each process spends in running, sleeping, queuing, and waiting for io. On exit the script prints out the accumulated time for each state of processes observed.  Optionally, this script can be used with the &amp;#39;-c&amp;#39; or &amp;#39;-x&amp;#39; options to focus on a specific PID and its children.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;process/schedtimes.txt&quot;&gt;sample usage in process/schedtimes.txt&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The script monitors the time that threads spend in waiting for IO operations (in &amp;quot;D&amp;quot; state) in the wait_for_completion function.  If a thread spends over 10ms, its name and backtrace is printed, and later so is the total delay.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;-2&quot;&gt;&lt;pre&gt;# stap sleepingBeauties.stp -T 1&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The spawn_seeker.stp script every minute (and on exit) prints out the local time and sorted lists of which processes and executables spawned tasks during the previous minute. This can be useful to determine what process is creating a flurry of short-lived processes.  When a process exits its count of tasks created is added to its parent&amp;#39;s count to better account for the indirect task creation by children processes.  For more detailed examination of task creation consider using forktracker.stp.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;process/spawn_seeker.txt&quot;&gt;sample usage in process/spawn_seeker.txt&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The script instruments each of the functions in the Linux kernel&amp;#39;s net/socket.c file. The script prints out trace data. The first element of a line is time delta in microseconds from the previous entry. This is followed by the command name and the PID. The &amp;quot;-&amp;gt;&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;&amp;lt;-&amp;quot; indicates function entry and function exit, respectively. The last element of the line is the function name.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;-2&quot;&gt;&lt;pre&gt;# stap socket-trace.stp -T 1&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The socktop script periodically prints out a list of the processes with the highest socket activity.  Command line options for the script allow filtering to focus on particular types of sockets. The &amp;quot;-h&amp;quot; option lists socktop script&amp;#39;s filtering options.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;network/socktop&quot;&gt;sample usage in network/socktop&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;alias_suffixes.stp is a demonstration of how alias suffixes in the systemtap language might be used. The script tracks the wall clock time for each invocation of the system calls open, close, read, and write. When the script exists it prints out the minimum, average, and maximum times in microseconds for each system call, followed by a count of times that each syscall was invoked and a histogram showing the distributions of times.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;-2&quot;&gt;&lt;pre&gt;# stap alias_suffixes.stp -T 1&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The script periodically prints a count of specified events and their related tid&amp;#39;s over the course of execution. Numerous configuration options exist to control filtering / reporting, some of which can be modified at runtime.

&lt;p&gt;This script prints the size of a type, based on dwarf debuginfo for any kernel or userspace module, or trial-compilation of a given header file name. Types and corresponding locations are provided to the script at runtime via keyboard input. The format of the input is identical to that of sizeof.stp (see script source for more information). Types and locations can be repeatedly given until the process is terminated. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;general/sizeof_interactive.txt&quot;&gt;sample usage in general/sizeof_interactive.txt&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The script watches each open, close, read, and write syscalls on the system. For each file the scripts observes opened it accumulates the amount of wall clock time spent in read and write operations and the number of bytes read and written. When a file is closed the script prints out a pair of lines for the file. Both lines begin with a timestamp in microseconds, the PID number, and the executable name in parentheses. The first line with the &amp;quot;access&amp;quot; keyword lists the file name, the attempted number of bytes for the read and write operations. The second line with the &amp;quot;iotime&amp;quot; keyword list the file name and the number of microseconds accumulated in the read and write syscalls.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;-2&quot;&gt;&lt;pre&gt;# stap iotime.stp -T 1&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The container_check.stp script monitors the use of linux capablities and optionally forbidden syscalls by a process and its children.  On exit the script prints out lists showing the capabilies used by each executable, which syscall used specific capabilites for each executable, a list of forbidden syscalls used, and details on any syscalls that failed during monitoring.  This script is designed to help diagnose issues caused by restricted capabilies and syscalls when running an application in a container.  If the script warns about skipped probes, the number of active kretprobes may need to be increased with &amp;quot;-DKRETACTIVE=100&amp;quot; option on the command line&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;-2&quot;&gt;&lt;pre&gt;# stap container_check.stp -c &amp;quot;ping -c 1 sourceware.org || true&amp;quot;&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

The script makes the information available via procfs in Prometheus readable format.  When a process exits its data will be eliminated from the prometheus output.  To avoid exceeding the storage limitations of SystemTap older entries maybe overwritten by newer entries.  This can lead to some active process syscall error counts disappearing and/or later reappearing with a lower value.

&lt;p&gt;The ucalls.stp script is modeled after the BCC ucalls script (https://github.com/iovisor/bcc/blob/master/tools/lib/ucalls.py) by Sasha Goldshtein. The ucalls.stp script monitors the process indicated by the -x or -c option.  When the scripts exits it prints out information about the number of times that each method is invoked for code written in Java, Perl, Php, Python, Ruby, and Tcl.  Include the word &amp;quot;syscalls&amp;quot; on the command line to count syscalls invoked by the process.  If you want latency information, include &amp;quot;latency&amp;quot; on the command line.

&lt;p&gt;SystemTap has multiple passes to convert the text of a SystemTap script into instrumentation that actually collect data on the system.  The stap_time.stp script uses the markers in SystemTap to note the amount of time that each of the passes requires.  When SystemTap completes pass 4 (compiling the instrumentation into a kernel module) the script print out the script name followed by the amount of time in milliseconds required for Pass 0 (command line option parsing), Pass 1 (script parsing), Pass 2 (elaboration), Pass 3 (code generation), and Pass 4 (module compilation).  The resulting data can be analyzed to determine if there are issues with the amount of time that systemtap takes to generate instrumentation.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;-2&quot;&gt;&lt;pre&gt;# stap stap_time.stp -T 1&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

keywords: &lt;a href=&quot;keyword-index.html#_BEST&quot;&gt;_BEST&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href=&quot;keyword-index.html#VIRTUALIZATION&quot;&gt;VIRTUALIZATION&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href=&quot;keyword-index.html#KVM&quot;&gt;KVM&lt;/a&gt; &lt;br&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The kvm_service_time.stp script tracks the statistics about the amount of time that the processor left the guest virtual machine for each exit reason (for example fixing up a page table or handling an IO operation).  When the script exits it prints out the number of times each exit reason was encountered, the total duration of time it left the guest VM, the minimum time, the average time, and the maximum time in microseconds for that exit reason. On Linux 2.6.38 and newer kernel the script can automatically determine whether it is running on Intel or AMD processors. For older kernels with a kernel.trace(&amp;quot;kvm_exit&amp;quot;) tracepoint that does not have the $isa parameter you can explicitly state the kvm type with a &amp;quot;-G kvm=intel&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;-G kvm=amd&amp;quot; on the command line.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;virtualization/kvm_service_time.txt&quot;&gt;sample usage in virtualization/kvm_service_time.txt&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The qemu_count.stp script tallies the number of times each of the user-space qemu probepoints is encountered. When the script exits, it prints a list of the number of times each user-space qemu probepoint is encountered.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;-2&quot;&gt;&lt;pre&gt;# stap qemu_count.stp -T 1&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The qemu_io.stp script tallies the number of times each of the IO port on the guest virtual machines is touched by a input or output operation. When the script exits, it prints a count of the number of times each IO port read and written.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;-2&quot;&gt;&lt;pre&gt;# stap qemu_io.stp -T 1&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The watchdog.stp script provides a watchdog timer mechanism for arbitrary events. The script takes three arguments: the events to start watchdog timer, the event to stop the watchdog timer, and the time in millseconds for the watchdog. If the watchdog timer is exceed, the script will trigger a stack backtrace of the user-process that timed out using pstack. This script can be used to diagnose what the userspace application is doing when a slower than expected operation occurs.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;-2&quot;&gt;&lt;pre&gt;# stap watchdog.stp &amp;#39;syscall.nanosleep&amp;#39; &amp;#39;syscall.nanosleep.return&amp;#39; 1000 \
