FUNCTION::PROBE_TYPE(3stap)					 Context Functions				       FUNCTION::PROBE_TYPE(3stap)

NAME

       function::probe_type - The low level probe handler type of the current probe.

SYNOPSIS

	   probe_type:string()

ARGUMENTS

       None

DESCRIPTION

       Returns a short string describing the low level probe handler type for the current probe point. This is for informational purposes only.
       Depending on the low level probe handler different context functions can or cannot provide information about the current event (for example
       some probe handlers only trigger in user space and have no associated kernel context). High-level probes might map to the same or different
       low-level probes (depending on systemtap version and/or kernel used).

NAME

       tapset::networking - systemtap networking tapset

DESCRIPTION

	This family of probe points is used to probe the activities of the network device.

       netdev.receive
	      Data received from network device.

	       See probe::netdev.receive(3stap)
	       for details.

       netdev.transmit
	      Network device transmitting buffer

	       See probe::netdev.transmit(3stap)
	       for details.

       netdev.change_mtu
	      Called when the netdev MTU is changed

	       See probe::netdev.change_mtu(3stap)
	       for details.

       netdev.open
	      Called when the device is opened

	       See probe::netdev.open(3stap)
	       for details.

       netdev.close
	      Called when the device is closed

	       See probe::netdev.close(3stap)
	       for details.

       netdev.hard_transmit
	      Called when the devices is going to TX (hard)

	       See probe::netdev.hard_transmit(3stap)
	       for details.

       netdev.rx
	      Called when the device is going to receive a packet

	       See probe::netdev.rx(3stap)
	       for details.

       netdev.change_rx_flag
	      Called when the device RX flag will be changed

	       See probe::netdev.change_rx_flag(3stap)
	       for details.

       netdev.set_promiscuity
	      Called when the device enters/leaves promiscuity

	       See probe::netdev.set_promiscuity(3stap)
	       for details.

       netdev.ioctl
	      Called when the device suffers an IOCTL

	       See probe::netdev.ioctl(3stap)
	       for details.

       netdev.register
	      Called when the device is registered

	       See probe::netdev.register(3stap)
	       for details.

       netdev.unregister
	      Called when the device is being unregistered

	       See probe::netdev.unregister(3stap)
	       for details.

       netdev.get_stats
	      Called when someone asks the device statistics

	       See probe::netdev.get_stats(3stap)
	       for details.

       netdev.change_mac
	      Called when the netdev_name has the MAC changed

	       See probe::netdev.change_mac(3stap)
	       for details.
