The wiki [1] seems to be outdated. There are missing several probes descriptions, as discussed in [ruby-core:46870]

I put together this [1] SystemTap file, which contains description of all parameters (please note that it will be merged into master soon). It could be used as a source for update of wiki.

Actually the best what could happen would be if Ruby could ship this file in its source distribution. This would help Fedora as well as other distributions, which are distributed with SystemTap. Unfortunately I don't know yet how to best integrate it into Ruby's build process, so I'll create independent issue in the future.

I've updated the wiki and added a script that will generate wiki format from the probes file. It looks like there is a script for generating system tap probes already under tool, so I'll close this. If we need more system tap stuff, please open a new ticket.

Thanks!

Wow, I was not aware of this tool. I need to look at it and thank to Motohiro :)
