In each case, the module is unloaded when the script has finished running. </p><p>Scripts generally focus on events (such as starting or finishing a script), compiled-in probe points such as Linux "tracepoints", or the execution of functions or statements in the kernel or user-space. </p><p>Some "guru mode" scripts may also have embedded C, which may run with the <code>-g</code> command-line option. However, use of guru mode is discouraged, and each SystemTap release includes more probe points designed to remove the need for guru-mode scripts. Guru mode is required in order to permit scripts to <i>modify</i> state in the instrumented software, such as to apply some types of emergency security fixes. </p><p>As of SystemTap version 1.7, the software implements the new <i>stapsys</i> group and privilege level.<sup id="cite_ref-10" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-10"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>10<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Simple_examples">Simple examples</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=SystemTap&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: Simple examples"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The following script shows all applications setting <a href="/wiki/Transmission_Control_Protocol" title="Transmission Control Protocol">TCP</a> <a href="/wiki/Network_socket" title="Network socket">socket</a> options on the system, what options are being set, and whether the option is set successfully or not. </p> <div class="mw-highlight mw-highlight-lang-vcl mw-content-ltr" dir="ltr"><pre><span></span><span class="c"># Show sockets setting options</span> <span class="c"># Return enabled or disabled based on value of optval</span> <span class="n">function</span><span class="w"> </span><span class="n">getstatus</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="n">optval</span><span class="p">)</span> <span class="o">{</span> <span class="w"> </span><span class="k">if</span><span class="w"> </span><span class="p">(</span><span class="w"> </span><span class="n">optval</span><span class="w"> </span><span class="o">==</span><span class="w"> </span><span class="m">1</span><span class="w"> </span><span class="p">)</span> <span class="w"> </span><span class="k">return</span><span class="w"> </span><span class="s">"enabling"</span> <span class="w"> </span><span class="k">else</span> <span class="w"> </span><span class="k">return</span><span class="w"> </span><span class="s">"disabling"</span> <span class="o">}</span> <span class="k">probe </span><span class="vg">begin</span> <span class="p">{</span> <span class="w"> </span><span class="err">print</span><span class="w"> </span><span class="err">(</span><span class="s">"\nChecking for apps setting socket options\n"</span><span class="err">)</span> <span class="p">}</span> <span class="w"> </span><span class="c"># Set a socket option</span> <span class="w"> </span><span class="n">probe</span><span class="w"> </span><span class="n">tcp</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">setsockopt</span> <span class="w"> </span><span class="o">{</span> <span class="w"> </span><span class="n">status</span><span class="w"> </span><span class="o">=</span><span class="w"> </span><span class="n">getstatus</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="n">user_int</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="err">$</span><span class="n">optval</span><span class="p">))</span> <span class="w"> </span><span class="n">printf</span><span class="w"> </span><span class="p">(</span><span class="s">" App '%s' (PID %d) is %s socket option %s...
