Bug #14582
Updated by guilhermereiscampos (Guilherme Reis Campos) almost 7 years ago
Hi,
I am trying to use dtrace/systemtap probes and not being able to use it after the 2.5. The 2.4 version works fine. I was hoping this was fixed on 2.6-preview, but apparently not (just downloaded dev and tested).
I tried on OSX using dtrace and also on ubuntu (vagrant).
```
# test.rb
class Foo
def bar
100.times { "Bar" }
end
end
foo = Foo.new
foo.bar
# test.stp
probe process("/home/vagrant/.rbenv/versions/2.4.0/bin/ruby").mark("method__entry") # you probably will need to change this to your ruby path.
{
printf("%s => %s.%s in %s:%d\n", thread_indent(1), kernel_string($arg1),kernel_string($arg2),kernel_string($arg3),$arg4);
}
probe process("/home/vagrant/.rbenv/versions/2.4.0/bin/ruby").mark("method__return")
{
printf("%s <= %s.%s in %s:%d\n", thread_indent(-1), kernel_string($arg1),kernel_string($arg2),kernel_string($arg3),$arg4);
}
```
dtrace was something similar to it.
I was expecting to see this output:
```
``

# then:

0 ruby(9667): => Foo.bar in test.rb:3
16 ruby(9667): <= Foo.bar in test.rb:5
```
(The output above is 2.4)
my ruby (all versions that I tested) was install with rb-env:
```
RUBY_CONFIGURE_OPTS='--enable-dtrace --disable-install-doc' rbenv install 2.5.0
```
I am happy to provide details if required.
Thanks,
