NAME

systrace - DTrace system call tracing provider

DESCRIPTION

The systrace driver implements the DTrace syscall dynamic tracing
provider. The syscall provider performs dynamic instrumentation to
offer probes that fire whenever a thread enters or returns from a
kernel system call entry point.


The systrace driver is not a public interface and you access the
instrumentation offered by this provider through DTrace. Refer to the
Dynamic Tracing Guide for a description of the public documented
interfaces available for the DTrace facility and the probes offered
by the syscall provider.
