NAME

       stappaths - systemtap miscellaneous and paths

DESCRIPTION

       This  manual  page  was	generated  on  2013-05-14 for systemtap 1.7.  The following section will list the main paths in systemtap that are
       important to know and may be required to reference.

       Tapset Path: /usr/share/systemtap/tapset/
	      Systemtap data directory for cached systemtap  files,  unless  overridden  by  the  SYSTEMTAP_TAPSET  environment  variable  or  the
	      XDG_DATA_DIRS  environment  variable.   This directory stores a set of builtin functions and probe point aliases are provided by the
	      scripts installed here.  These are described in the stapfuncs(3stap) and stapprobes(3stap) manual pages.

       Runtime Path: /usr/share/systemtap/runtime/
	      The runtime sources, unless overridden by the SYSTEMTAP_RUNTIME environment variable.

       Staprun Path: /usr/bin/staprun
	      The auxiliary program supervising module loading, interaction, and unloading.

       Stapio Path: /usr/lib/systemtap/stapio
	      The Systemtap module input and output handler.

       sdt.h Path: /usr/include/sys/sdt.h

       Kernel debuginfo Path: /usr/lib/debug/lib/modules/$(uname -r)/
	      The location of kernel debugging information when packaged into the kernel-debuginfo RPM, unless overridden by the  SYSTEMTAP_DEBUG-
	      INFO_PATH  environment variable.	The default value for this variable is +:.debug:/usr/lib/debug:build and can be changed using $env
	      SYSTEMTAP_DEBUGINFO_PATH=/path/to/vmlinux .  Elfutils searches vmlinux in this path and it interprets the path as a  base  directory
	      of  which  various  subdirectories  will be searched for finding modules.  By default, systemtap will also look for vmlinux in these
	      locations:

	      /boot/vmlinux-`uname -r`
	      /lib/modules/`uname -r`/vmlinux
	      /lib/modules/`uname -r`/vmlinux.debug
	      /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build/vmlinux
	      /lib/modules/`uname -r`/.debug/vmlinux.debug
	      /usr/lib/debug/lib/modules/`uname -r`/vmlinux.debug
	      /var/cache/abrt-di/usr/debug/lib/modules/`uname -r`/
	      /var/cache/abrt-di/usr/lib/debug/lib/modules/`uname -r`/vmlinux.debug

	      Debuginfo for user-space applications have source files located in /usr/src/debug/ Further file information on  user-space  applica-
	      tions  can be determined per-basis using rpm -ql <package>-debuginfo. For supported user-space applications information please visit
	      the systemtap wiki.

       $HOME/.systemtap
	      Systemtap data directory for cached systemtap files, unless overridden by the SYSTEMTAP_DIR environment variable.

       /tmp/stapXXXXXX
	      Temporary directory for systemtap files, including translated C code and kernel object.

       /lib/modules/VERSION/build
	      The location of kernel module building infrastructure.

       /usr/share/doc/systemtap*/examples
	      Examples with greater detail, can be found here. Each example comes with a .txt or .meta file explaining what the example, sample or
	      demo does and how it is ordinarily run.

       $SYSTEMTAP_DIR/ssl/server
	      User's server-side SSL certificate database. If SYSTEMTAP_DIR is not set, the default is $HOME/.systemtap.

       $SYSTEMTAP_DIR/ssl/client
	      User's private client-side SSL certificate database. If SYSTEMTAP_DIR is not set, the default is $HOME/.systemtap.

       /etc/systemtap/ssl/client
	      Global client-side SSL certificate database.

       /etc/systemtap/staprun/
	      staprun's trusted signer certificate database.

       /etc/sysconfig/stap-server/
	      stap-server service global configuration file.

       /etc/stap-server/conf.d/*.conf
	      stap-server service configuration files for default servers.

       /var/run/stap-server/
	      stap-server service default location of status files for running servers.

       /var/log/stap-server/log
	      stap-server service default log file.
